That's the only A I get is alone

[Frosty]

Seeded in A1 - bring on the congestion!!

Friends in A2 show race numbers in the 500's.

Worse case there are 500 in A1, best case would suggest 300 - that's bigger than the road event batches on wider roads.

 

And I haven't done a MTB race since Walkerville 2012 - not counting the Vlei 24-hr in December (my last MTB ride). So I'm not sure how they figure my seeding is better than friends who have done a number of Nissan/MTN events, Sani2C and last year's MTB event.

I had a look at the road closures around the start and first part of the route.

From what I could see woodmead drive is a no go until 10-ish

My wife's office is in Western Services Road and she said I could park there (just next to the Baron). Only problem is I wouldn't know how to get there from Centurion with all the road closures.

 

I contemplated riding to the start, but that might just be too much.

ANy suggestions on a route?

 

Take Allandale, hop onto the old PTA road all the way to Marlborough, left into Marlborough, left into South, as you go under the highway, right @ the robots onto the service road, all the way down to the Baron.

 

Take Rivonia, turn left, left into 12th (i think), a right into "Katherine", left into another road, right into the service road by the Baron.

What is the twitter ride? Sorry, I dont twit?

Did the twitter ride last year. Was good fun.

Not sure where it will be this year but should imagine the Waterfall Estate area in Midrand.

Chilled group ride with rolling lane closure and then followed by a very lekker breakfast.

Would imagine a good number of pros being there again this year.

Thanks Sir Cow

This sounds like a winner, will check it out on Google Maps....yeah, I'm a map guy

What fun are you guys gonna have the 17th?

Wyatt also said I can park at his spaza shop, will see which option will be taken.

Good luck for the final few rides
