AuctionLamb Posted November 24, 2014 Share And how was your ride? For once in my life I skipped this year...looking at how fast the times were I am more than happy with my decision to take the sabbatical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velouria Posted November 24, 2014 Share Not bad at all.. ... Considrering that the youngest memebr of there team is only 19 ... and he finished with the group....We had two 19 year olds - Nicholas is busy writing an exam right now and Shameeg was a super star. Both worth keeping an eye out for in the future... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloukrans Posted November 24, 2014 Share We had two 19 year olds - Nicholas is busy writing an exam right now and Shameeg was a super star. Both worth keeping an eye out for in the future...You guys rode like a well-oiled machine - was standing close to Shameeg's dad on one of the climbs to Swellendam. Well done!!!

Cam182 Posted November 24, 2014 Share First DC and what an enjoyable ride! We worked together and stayed as a group. It was amazing to see the speed the winning teams were doing when they flew by us as if we weren't even moving. No complaints about the whole day, except perhaps for whoever decided the finish at the top of that last hill was a good idea! Anyway definitely looking forward to setting myself a challenging goal next year to aim for... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cappi Posted November 24, 2014 Share Well Done, Did you get the actual medal? i thought you needed to have 12 riders cross the line to claim that medal?yes we did. we were only 11 registered members..so our full team. that's the way I figured they checked.

Velouria Posted November 24, 2014 Share My prediction for overall podium (cannot say in what order but it will be close): GiantAureconHotChilleePrivate Client Holdings Racing Think our team proved that pro's in the teams does not really make a diff, it is how you gel as a team and how you handle the issues(experience) in the race. Last year we were not even mentioned and hooked an overall 2nd. HotChillee will def have one team on podium depends how good your 6th guy is on the day. This is why I like the DC this year, going to open for everyone to take it. Think HotChillee still trying to figure out how they lost it by 7min... From being rather non committal and hedging your bets before the event to being quite cheeky afterwards. What's that saying about hindsight? To be fair, you got 3 out of 4 with Aurecon being the big losers. And you were right - closest DC for years. I don't see HotPansies getting podium.Reverse psychology. Good work pansy - I like your mind games. So - tell us about that taxi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
City Cycling Athletic Club Posted November 24, 2014 Share the dc is no longer a TTT and without the back up vehicles the organisers should just make it a 'paced handicap' race but in a team format as it now is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So - tell us about that taxi Eeerrmmm tongue-in-cheek comment that is why I had a smiley face, 2nd overall is brilliant! Not being cheeky, I think with the caliber of the two HotChillee teams I would have personally liked it a bit closer but you cannot always have what you want. 99% of people looking at results and never thought they will get beaten by 7 min. Next year is another year, will be even closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
