Most PPA races are like a R100 or less for 90+kms

 

See now, you Capies have all the good stuff.

 

My reference comes from the likes of the Argus and the 94.7 etc.

Argus was R180 if memory servces :whistling:

 

One would think with a sponsor the cost would come down ... anyways

That's only R 2.50 per Km per rider, lets see what the Epic costs /Km ?

 

Surely you cannot compare the two?

One course is specially designed, whereas this route is exactly the same as last year.

My thoughts.

 

If it is to expensive for your taste, then don't enter. Simple.

 

You have a choice, exercise that choice.

 

Hubbers are merely expressing their opinions Slowbs, on a social networking website, as requested by the OP.

"was" maybe in the 90's.

 

Now it is like R320... Just googled it, R350 for 2013.

Sponsor money often goes to adding value to an event... in terms of exposure for the sponsor and the riders experience.

The DC is a very special event and damn difficult to get all 12 across the line together but like almost everything else it's getting out of reach for the individual unless corporate sponsored. Most if the teams are corporate anyway

Now if they could only get their entries open and up and running so I can get it done, I have to go back to work soon, it's waaaaay past 1pm already! :cursing:

they're trying to emulate the race, by making the entry process as long!
