DieVlieg Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 I am driving through on Friday just to get my number and is driving back afterwards. Due to my wife being pregnant we could not stay over. What time is a good time to arrive at the race on Saturday if I do not need to register. What is the que like getting in there or the roads leading there. Is anyone interested In driving there with me on Friday? I will be leaving somewhere between 14:00 and 15:00 and drive back as soon as I am done.

watsonr Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 Apologies for advertising. My wife came down with a nasty cold yesterday and didn't feel any better this morning. She is going to decide this afternoon whether she will make the race. If she can't, there will be a 45km entry available at no cost other costs to substitute if that is possible. rouxtjie 1

I want to avoid getting up at 4AM to arrive there at 6AM to get my number. I was looking forward to rest until at least 5AM get up and ready and drive through at 6. I am expecting ques at tollgates ques at the venue entry, ques to get the number. Maybe I must except the fact that the organizers prepared properly and that I will be OK. If I miss the start I will be seriously disappointed. Also being relaxed before the race start will save some adrenalin for the race. But hey saving on fuel will be very nice.
jcza Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 Make sure you allow enough time to get there, traffic will be congested at the entrance. rouxtjie 1
Wyatt Earp Posted May 22, 2014 Posted May 22, 2014 Yawn Can you oakes just go and ride already For once I agree with you, it's a mountain bike event, not an AC/DC concert.
