Well Done to all that rode. We had a great time hosting the guys at the SS The Cullinan. Was nice to watch the prize giving from so close Had a guy from the hub doing a few repairs on sat and sunday. He was rather busy.

I think it was your original post that made me book into the Tsogo Waterfront. GREAT idea. Everything worked out great. Little cycle will be on my desk. Good early breakfast, bottle freezing etc. Sadly no shuttle to registration but that is no biggie. Will be back (big compliment since I have timeshare in The Peninsula).

On my Grab and go Station this year I had

Potato bombs, boiled eggs, mini banana breads, muffins, bananas , gu chomps, gu sachets, wine gums and jelly babies,tea coffe juice, and a semi frozen banana and peanut butter smoothie.

Havent had time to read all the pages here and just reading what I can in the car. I LOVE these big rides. I end up laughing. If you just listen in (its called snooping) to all the conversations and the topics. Its hysterical. Then I saw a guy with an entire tuck shop in his back pocket. Just watching him choose WHAT to eat and WHEN was amusing never mind him finding it.

I am booking into The Cullinan next year!! Great to be treated as valued guest. Suggestion (pushing it?) - the very early crowd (4:30) are all serious and eat very little. When I am back by 10:00 I am ready for a proper breakie - was nogal eina to pay again since the first meal was miniscule. How about a ready made 2 lapper run in and grab pack?

should not have had to pay again. As we know that most of the guys eat a little. The two lapper is a great Idea . Will just have to find out how many we need when guys check in. Can have a station outside on the road for you. thx for Idea.

Think I'm gonna book into the cullinan next year too, is there a early bird booking special? How far is it from the start or the finish? I laugh in the face of the 2 lappers... 1 is more than enough are they going for the strava challenges or to make us normal riders feel better?
