'Dale Posted October 14, 2013 Share What will the weighting towards your Argus seeding if you did this as well as Die Burger. Do they consider the last Argus as well - Ive already been 'fined' as I havnt done a seeded race in months (through Racetec/PPA anyways) Argus results is the bigger variable for the following year's seeding, I reckon.Like 50%. Can't recall where I read it somewhere. Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/130062-ppa-one-tonner-20-oct-2013/page/5/#findComment-2095827 Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they could use either the Burger or Argus, depending which is best. The "fine"/penalty thing only applies to your PPA group seeding, not the Argus (asuming you did Argus 2013) nazmo 1 Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/130062-ppa-one-tonner-20-oct-2013/page/5/#findComment-2095836 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pure Savage Posted October 14, 2013 Share I did the one tonner last year and finished well without a dc team and that gave me a really impressive seeding index. Although there was not a great big climb in first 5km.

LRW Posted October 14, 2013 Share judging by how it went on the training ride....that climb up hels actually isnt too bad......mainly because your legs are quite fresh.....might be a problem though since theyre not really warmed up yet.....all in all, the climb in the beginning is not that bad it s botmaskloof and the wind that goes along with it thats going to nail a few guys.....and that climb has about 3 nasty little gradient changes along it lucmccann, walkerr and Mads 3 Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/130062-ppa-one-tonner-20-oct-2013/page/5/#findComment-2095899 Share on other sites More sharing options...
