georgedup Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 Guys I know the subs are closed... Is there any way that a person can still enter if you get an entry?Talking to the organizers? Will or can it be allowed?
Velo Racer Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 HI Guys I have a quick question. Will I be disqualified if I start the Argus in another group than the one I am in? I would like to start the race with my training buddies who are seeded in a different group.

Velo Racer Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 Sure you can start in later group but not earlier What if someone who starts in an earlier group says he is no longer doing the race and I can race with his number? Wil lI be disqualified?
fanievb Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 What if someone who starts in an earlier group says he is no longer doing the race and I can race with his number? Wil lI be disqualified? NO you can't and you will be disqualified
shaper Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 Jip, it is official - sore throat and runny nose today. Perfect timing. cracked 4 ribs at the carnival city race, hoping that the pain killers, anti inflammatory and 2 weeks rest will be enough to see me through... might well turn into just a fun ride...

Skubarra Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 HI Guys I have a quick question. Will I be disqualified if I start the Argus in another group than the one I am in? I would like to start the race with my training buddies who are seeded in a different group. Quick question - if everybody can just start where they like and pitch up in groups higher than their seeding, why would the organisers bother with seedings or cyclists bother doing seeding races?
GaryvdM Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 Quick question - if everybody can just start where they like and pitch up in groups higher than their seeding, why would the organisers bother with seedings or cyclists bother doing seeding races? I think with most races, if you start in a higher group, you will just get dq'ed after the event, and you won't have a result. But you won't get stopped from riding. So if you don't care for your official result, you can do this. I think with the Argus they have people checking at the entrance of the start pens, so you would have to jump the fence to do this.
Wez-O Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 What time would suit you guys? 7H30 to late, or too early?We can meet at the Vigin Active Greenpoint, do the ride to foot / traffic light of Suikerbossie and then come back. Vida Cafe in Kampsbay will be very busy that time of the morning, but so will be most if not all of the Coffee Shops enroute.Sounds good to me!
Blue Monster Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 Jip, it is official - sore throat and runny nose today. Perfect timing.Me too.Started yesterday morning. I have officially taken every remedy I know.Feeling better today.Hope to ride on Thursday in CT.

If it was any of the old omies I know, then he was lying through his teeth! They secretly train like bloody mad all year round but pretend to be old, unfit, fat and slow.........until race day, then they kick some young butt! 3wings 1
