SurferChild Posted September 27, 2013 Share Who got there at 11h00 this morning? Just revisited and yes, there are min entries in the open groups but the licenced are better supported.I'm pretty sure that there will be more Lic entries... Have you seen the prize money values?? They pulled out all the stops for the Elite prize monies.R40 000 for the winner and so on until 10th place or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karooryder Posted September 29, 2013 Share A race with a lot of potential, great route and good vibe. Obviously a number of organizational and marshaling issues - to be expected with a smaller (inaugural) race like this. Man, the wind was pumping on the Randfontein flats!!!!

jcza Posted September 29, 2013 Share Race itself was ok, marshaling in Randfontein CBD was a problem due to motorists not obeying marshalls. Event wasn't advertised properly.Started late.Number collection was inconvenient. Not sure why it stated road closure when it clearly wasn't the case. Section of road heading back to Randfontein wasn't great, more bike marshalls needed. Needs more numbers - nowhere to hide in the wind!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prozac Posted September 30, 2013 Share Lots of work for CSA if this race will continue in future . . . Good "raining ride" . . . Mc Donands toilets worked overtime as there was no decent / any facilities close to start . . . (anywhere for that matter) I saw a oomie taking a "dump" / pinching a "loaf" AKA bos-*** next to his vehicle . . . Not a good sight before a race. Found myself with 2 okes down to Magalies . . . On the back end a group came past and I grabbed on and did my part to the end. (The marshal designated to our little group did real great job and then were gone by the time we got to Rantfontein) Almost had a nasty collision with a bmw turning straight in from of our group in Ranties. Road closure or Partial road closure ? . . . ( Only the last 500 odd meters were closed )Apparently the Metro police did not show up ? Wind as always made it difficult and slow times. Managed a 3:11 , mmm , not to bad . . . I guess ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
