Agteros Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 When AL passed them they were actually neutralised.They finished momenys ahead of BL. I was hoping that we would have caught them, but maybe it was all for the better with the short riders and cones...
jcza Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Great race (ok except for the cones). Fast start, got dropped somewhere around 55-60km when entire race was sitting in gutter on right (lucky we're not in the cape). Cruised home, enjoyed it.
TALUS Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 It felt weird (and wrong) when the whole group was sitting in the right lane. I was wondering WTF I was doing since I was sitting on the exposed side anyway.
Andrew Steer Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Great race (ok except for the cones). Fast start, got dropped somewhere around 55-60km when entire race was sitting in gutter on right (lucky we're not in the cape). Cruised home, enjoyed it. Ten minutes before the elite ladies...
andydude Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 I spoke to one of the girls, they didn't race for time, they raced for the win. Yesterday was a repeat of attack, chase slow down/recover rinse & repeat. No wonder Anli said they quality of road racing for women in sa is not up to standard. It's always an interesting question. Do you put them with VC or VB to get the leg and proper racing speed, but doing less in the group, or do you let them ride on their own, with much less numbers and slower time? The quality is not there, because there is just not enough elite ladies. I've heard somewhere that speed wise to compete overseas they probably have to race with VA.

Dexter-morgan Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 I enjoyed the race up until the 30Km mark where I had the wipe of my life, limped home then helped many other people on the way with a tube, bomb and tire levers - Thanks To the guy by the name of Tony that lent me his multi-tool.
Frosty Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 (edited) What happened with them rding in the VC bunch to improve the quality of the riding?The VC's won't race if the ladies are included in their batch. Tell them (ladies) there's no prize money, and you'll see how much quicker they ride.

RastaMan Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 Please read my post again, as I am saying what you are saying.eish monday morning soz.Also can't wait. saw my berge & dale race took my index down to 17 this, r4s might take it down to like 15. But I am still starting in D at at the Argus, wish they could have included berge & R4S results

But I am still starting in D at at the Argus, wish they could have included berge & R4S results I do not think this race will get a favorable beta. It had the lowest beta of all the races I did last year, but we can only hope. Dont stress, I think the Ds are good for a sub 3 at the Argus, just judging by the guys I know who are in D this year. Al of them were close to 2h50 at R4S this year, which is a good indicator or Argus times, subject to weather obviously
HairyLegs Posted February 24, 2014 Posted February 24, 2014 The results have still not been added to the PPA seedings. I am not sure if I find this acceptable!AFAIK, PPA only run the seedings once on month. So your February results wil be added in March. Always been like this.

This is a snapshot of what was used for Argus.
