Woofie Posted February 3, 2014 Share Cool, about time we ride together again.Heard from guys that recce'd the route over the past weekend that the gravel section is more suited to Mtb than Roadbike.Still a lot of thick loose sand. Imagine if it had to rain this weekend like it did for last years 99er..... That dirt section will become incredibly interesting then.

allez Posted February 4, 2014 Share I am still deciding on the 99er, will do my recce with the car on Thursday and decide on Friday. If it rains, it will be cyclo-cross style the last few kilometers, and the short route joining in - much fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vayamo Posted February 4, 2014 Share Keen to join you guys. Open to anyone? And presume you'll be going down Main Road past the Baxter Theatre, if so ok to join in there? Wannabe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woofie Posted February 4, 2014 Share Yup. It is open to anyone. If you can ride the distance then come along. We can meet you there somewhere on that side. Last year we met guys across from the Constantia shopping Centre. Wannabe can arrange the details with you. Wannabe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wannabe Posted February 5, 2014 Share Guys can meet us at Constantia Village from about 07h00 (took us an hour to get there last time) Start at VA Greenpoint at 06h00 (bring along lights, still fairly dusk at that time)Going out on Liesbeek Park, past Newlands towards Constantia. Spaanschemat rd to Westlake. Join Argus route proper at foot of Boyes drive.Pace will be fairly relaxed. Took us just on 5hrs to complete the ride last year. Avg pace was just under 25km/h.Guys are free to strtch the legs up the climbs, we just regroup at the top (Smitswinkel, Chappies, Suikerbossie) See you guys and gals on Saturday.
