Got my seeding mail now and when I read what the % means for my seeding I almost pissed myself laughing when I saw

% = top seeded male riders. Come on! I would rather want to start in A or B and be in the mix (or not) than hanging at the back of the % group praying for the race to finish

D for death!

 

Which is exactly how I feel at the moment and also my seeding. I'm going to get someone to take a picture of me because it has been a long time since I was up there. Perhaps the 1 Tonner made the difference? Anyone who survived it got moved to the front? ;)

Hi all,

 

Also looking for 2 entries for Die Burger road race.

 

Still looking ... anyone feeling like a long lie-in instead of rushing up Helshoogte? Feeling a cold coming on perhaps? Let me know!

After 2 years off the bike and just completing the One Tonner, got bumped upto D from a Q PPA seeding. What sort of time would you expect the average time for the D group to be? Just want to see if I'll be able to hang onto the big group or slip back to Q?

After riding with my children the last 2 years, to get them safely going on the road, I've also made a big jump up to D. So, we're in D same boat :D

 

I would guess 3h30, maybe even a little under if it is a good day, but it is very much a thumb suck. If the wind howls like on the 1-Tonner, then I really don't want to even guess a time.

 

Hopefully some stats juckies will comment soon.

I made an interesting jump down to D. Maybe they woke up and realised just how crappy I am! :blush:

 

Must admit, this got me somewhat motivated for the ride... :w00t:

 

BTW - Don't know the historical times of D - but if I ride a 3:30 (without mechanicals) I'll retire from road cycling. (Was about to say shoot myself, but that's a bit harsh on a lovely Friday morning!)

with good race conditions, I reckon you should come in well under 3 hours. I did a 3h01 last year in group J.
