Some of us struggle on hills !!!!

 

If Hekpoort feels flat to you you need to stop taking those tablets !!

 

The first stretch to Hekpoort is fairly flat , then Hekpoot , That's tough . . . but don't let the others know ! :whistling:

pink Ladies had a cut Tire half way up Hekpoort... I was only too glad to get off my bike and help them , Legs were burning like crazy ...

Pace it up as the guys say, find a rhythm and cruise lekker... you only screw yourself over by killing your legs .

It is a good Ride though ... :drool:

Do we have to pre-collect our numbers on the thursday/friday or can we collect saturday morning at the race?

 

I also wanted to find out about this and I e-mailed the event organisers 3 times without a reply. I am almost exactly 100km away from the nearest number collection point, which means 200km both ways plus the Kroonvaal toll gate in between as well. I would love to support races from outside the Vaal Triangle area, but the number collection is a huge drawback. It just seems unfair to take a day's leave and travel such a long distance just to pick up a number! the organisers could possibly also consider making a courier option available. I would also pay a levy of some sort if I can collect the number on the morning of the event.

We are from Klerksdorp and that is 500km to pickup a number, another 500km to do the race. There must be a way to get numbers..... Crazy

I always find the traffic around the bottom of Hekpoort a challenge. Last year had a small disagreement with a chop in a FJ Cruiser. He refused to move a meter to the right so I could squeeze past.

When he finally did move over, he slowed me down just enough to break my rythm.
