Wil6 Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 How big are these blikkies? We are a team of 4 and I was wondering how much stuff we can each put into these things.About 26 liters. You can fit a few things in there.

We have been taking it real easy as we were looking just to finish, going to have to re-adjust our goaltime. Bergplaas in light will be 1st prize. Doing my 5th so holding thumbs for good weather.
straatvark Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 Ditto, The phone number on the web site don't work so I filled in the contact form with the question. Would be nice to get a photo of one to get an idea of dimensions. It was point out to me that there is also a picture under FAQ
hboli4 Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 Don't think I will ever take that risk, rather then go with lights from the start. Anything can happen on route...
hboli4 Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 Ecobound are good at a lot of things but general admin and comms are not one of those. Help.Me. and Wil6 2
Wil6 Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 Don't think I will ever take that risk, rather then go with lights from the start. Anything can happen on route...Lights in chp #3 is the safest option. To not make it to this checkpoint in daylight will require a special kind of unfitness.

Was the best sunset I have ever seen. This year I'm putting my GoPro in box #4 just in case. Jakkals. and hboli4 2
Dominik Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 According to someone from Ecobound the route is pretty dry this year, but the road looks bad at some parts. (just some info)
