Underachiever Posted June 18, 2014 Share Eish, was planing to ride but I'm really scared of of the section on the R549 from Karan Beef to Heidelberg. I had some bad experiences on it before. May be it's different on a Sunday compared to a Saturday, but I'm still scared. Definately less busy on a Sunday, but you need to have eyes in the back of your head - the R23 heading back to Benoni is my personal nightmare.

GaryvdM Posted June 19, 2014 Share Ok thought about it last night. Should be quieter on Sunday, and hopefully should not be on my own this time. So I'm in. See you guys there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See you Sunday, Gary :-) 41 entries so far, so should be decent-sized bunches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spirog Posted July 14, 2014 Share So, for some masochistic reason, I'm considering the 200 km on the 27th. Longest ride I've ever done is Argus, but I cracked an entry for the Coronation DC in December. I'm doing between 7 and 9 hours a week with a single long ride of around 93 km. I'd plan to ride at 20 to 23 km/h. Will there be others to ride with? Do I just arrive with my bike and a couple of water bottles and plan to buy what I need on the route? I've fortunately got a system that handles most things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The majority of the field finishes in 7-9 hours, so should be groups at your pace. I carry tubes, bombs, levers, multitool, tyre boot, and pump, but not much in the way of food as there are plenty of shops en route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
