Mmmh - the race description looks promising - could be a really nice event.

But the entry fee??? R1800 per rider excluding accommodation?

same thought for me, but not sure if there's a surcharge for the trailbuilding or just general hype.

 

I'd like to know what the plan is with all these new trails. If they're really awesome, but off limits/expensive then they are going to get poached. it's a student town and the attitudes filter up from there!

R900 a day ... i dont understand events like this. A single day event costs between R250 - R300 a day but the moment its more than one day the prices per day triples? Would really like to give a stage race ago but there is hardly anything priced well enough to give it a chance or a first timer.

Moertoe!

 

This old ballie needs a sponsor!

 

Why oh why! - are we making this exclusive?

 

We get ripped off because we allow ourselves to get ripped off.
