Nettie R Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 Pre-entries are now closed. Riders can still enter at registration venues this week at a late entry penalty fee of R50. Different tune from the message on the website earlier where no extension or day entries were possible. Numbers down perhaps?Weather cannot be colder than last year. Let's hope they mark the course somewhat better and not wait for someone to fall them to pieces on the drop off a 100m from the finish before they make a plan.

jcza Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 seems like the mornings have been getting colder !!! This is Jhb coldest race...really hoping its warmer this year!
Waynehans Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 I went for a ride this morning in Vereeniging at 7am. it was 1.5 when i left and dropped to -2 near Meyerton. Its only cold for about 10km, then its fine. The race starts late so it will be fine LADIES!!! This week has gotten slighlty colder, but I still rode in shorts and no leg warmers.!!! H T F U !!!
kosmonooit Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Cold snaps come and go here in winter, as they have been doing for a while.
Sharkie 2 Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 I did not like the newer route last year was very boring
Natashap Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Will it be okay if we ride in shorts and skins on the arms. First time riding this race
Anty Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 I am a bit confused by the Email received regarding registration. It only designates Thursday, Friday and Saturday and not on the morning of the race. Does this mean that I can still pick up the number on Sunday morning? I entered online?
Sharkie 2 Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Will it be okay if we ride in shorts and skins on the arms. First time riding this raceI would add a base layer to that, the climb at the start warms you up but from there it is flatish and the wind can be extremely cold
Clinton H Posted July 14, 2013 Posted July 14, 2013 Race went down today , I must say on of the better routes use for this event in a long time . We had a jol ..... DPLot 1
W@nna-BE Posted July 14, 2013 Posted July 14, 2013 I almost died! Did a 3:34, think I had my first official "bonk" at 50km, I think I had too many layers on! Nice hard route!
Karin Posted July 14, 2013 Posted July 14, 2013 (edited) This is how my son's race went down!!! Anyone feel like sponsoring him a new wheelset? Don't hold back....... Edited July 14, 2013 by ProudMom
