Mondino Posted October 17, 2013 Share I had a look at some of the profile recordings on Strava. Assuming it is the same route, then will be quite a nice flat race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASG Posted October 18, 2013 Share Sondela SuperClassic - Entries close today Entries for next Saturday’s quick-fire Sondela SuperClassic Road Race close this evening (18 October). Riders who would like to enter, have to get clicking to www.asgevents.co.za. To enter, click here The event attracted almost 1000 entries in its inaugural edition last year and most participants used it as a final dress rehearsal for the Momentum 94.7 Cycle Challenge on an easy 104km course which didn’t hurt their legs in the lead-up. RACE FACTS Date: 26 October 2013Where: Sondela Nature Reserve, 45 minutes from Pretoria on the N1Distances: 104km (R230); 40km (R130-00)Time: 06:00Prize giving: 11:00Timing: RaceTec On-line entries and further information: www.asgevents.co.za. For further info on Sondela and directions go to www.sondela.com For race enquiries email eventsupport@asgworld.co.za or phone 076 621 1807 Situated only 45 minutes north of Pretoria on the N1 Highway, Sondela Nature Reserve again plays host to the Sondela SuperClassic road race on 26 October 2013. The road event presents two distances on a flat and fast course – a perfect last training ride two weeks prior to the Momentum 94.7 Cycle Challenge. The long ride covers 104km while a 40km option is also on offer. Both distances are on flat routes and will provide a good moral booster before the Cycle Challenge. The roads are quiet and the road surface good. Sondela has been a popular bushveld getaway for many years and the resort excels in hosting mass participation cycling events, evidenced by the big Sondela Mountain Bike Challenge, which attracted 1500 riders in winter this year. Management are now putting it all in place for a wonderful family weekend on 26 October at Sondela with lots of kids entertainment, a massive beer garden and all sorts of delicious eats and drinks.A controlled bike park is available for riders. Participants will receive wrist tags at registration which will ensure safe keeping of bikes while riders enjoy the festivities over the weekend. The event starts at the entrance to Sondela, which is off the main off-ramp into Bela Bela, and ample parking is cordoned off from the Sondela entrance back towards the N1 Highway. Ample parking ushers will be on duty to help riders get parked and ready and they will look after vehicles during the course of the day. Route description: While the 40km route remains as is from last year – it goes out from Sondela and does a loop around Settlers - the organisation has had to make changes to the 104km route due to road works.The long route will go out past Settlers on the Marble Hall Road, taking a left towards the R33 Road before turning back to Sondela.There is one waterpoint on the short ride at the R516 joining and the long ride boasts four waterpoints. As with all ASG Events, event medical specialists Helivac are on hand to look after cyclists medical requirements and emergencies that might arise. The local Think Bike guys will be on hand to ensure safe passage for cyclists and the local metro police have a big presence on race day to assist. MTB Fun Ride Riders who fancy doing a double header over the weekend can enter the Sondela MTB Fun ride the day after the road race.For race enquiries email eventsupport@asgworld.co.za or phone 076 621 1807 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
