here's the route

Thanks!

 

So it's a bit of the Wilro / EPR route with a Gauteng champs lap thrown in stirred with more Cradle and then the Sterkies climb at the end. On paper it looks like a tough route. On tar probably tougher, especially if the wind comes a knocking.

Good meeting you on Saturday Andy..... sjoe, didn't enjoy EPR!

I actually found D2D much easier than EPR, but there is a little more uphill:)

Good to meet you too! I dropped on that first drag, chased back for 10kms and then on the long drag got dropped just before the top because of an accident... the guys were guttering onto the gravel! Luckily didn't fall, but had to almost stop.

I'm In ... did FTP there last week. From the stop street . its about 4ks to the finish line. For me that hill takes 15 mins provided you saved some legs on Lionpark Loop, Toadberry Climb and the Kromdraai Drag ... Just completed my Late reg Today ...

Does somebody have the exact distance and gradient of the Sterkfontein climb, wanna compare to suikerbosrand?

Surely they can email a printable version... just for the formality of the correct bunch start

Anyone know if this is a mass start or seeded, and if seeded, which seeding system applies?

 

Seeded.
