Ecko_1 Posted October 16, 2013 Share My wife (a journalist) mentioned yesterday that one of her colleagues was talking about there being 2 fatalities during the Shova. She didnt here much other info. I asked her to get more info today. Anyone else hear of this by any chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ecko_1 Posted October 16, 2013 Share Thanks. I wonder if the 2nd fatality perhaps misinformation? That is sad news. Not sure the circumstances of the individual, but a sad happening regardless. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andydude Posted October 16, 2013 Share How? What he said below. What program/website do you use? In my case, yes. There is a setting on Garmin Connect and on Strava that allows you to choose elevation correction on or off. Usually I find this gives results that correlate closely with those other people publish. In this case, my figures are a bit higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfa147GTA Posted October 16, 2013 Share My first Shova and did it in 3h27min. Started cycling again in mid-August and have been loving it. Had a guy called Tim in front of me, he pulled me just about two thirds of the way. Pity his chain kept coming off.

Amashova Posted October 18, 2013 Share I think driving back to Jhb after the race wasn't such a good idea! Time to shop early and try and get a decent flight.next year's race date is 12 October so nowyou have a whole year! look forward to seeing you next year!

Blackadder Posted October 18, 2013 Share Out of interest, how many people rode the Amashova this year. I read somewhere there were 10,000 riders on the 106km race, but RaceTec only lists 4,279 finishers. Even accounting for no-shows and dnf's, it does not sound likely that there were that many registrations. GaryvdM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackadder Posted October 19, 2013 Share The 10000 maybe included riders doing the shorter distances. No, I checked the article, and they said there were a total of "just under 14,000" riders, with 10,000 doing the main event. =107961"]http://www.witness.co.za/index.php?showcontent&global[_id]=107961Seems high to me Edited October 19, 2013 by Blackadder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
