Emailed the organisers a while ago but got NO response. I had a question:

 

 

 

I want to enter my dad and I into the race. I see that we will be indifferent classes due to age but I seeded us both in group 'D'. Will we ride together? If not, how can I enter a team or enter so we ride the race together opposed to riding in separate classes...

 

 

 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

 

 

[Face Plant]

if you are seeded the same you will ride together as you will be in the same batch

[Gringo]

Okay thanks, so even if I am entered as Elite and my father as masters, we will ride together because we both in Group D?

 

 

[Face Plant]

correct

Hi, I have entered for the 45km, and this will be the first time i enter for the longer distance event. I have been told that this is a rather difficult race with many rocks and climbs! What should I be prepared for?

at the recent 12hr it was a killer at the 11th hour....
