Skubarra Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 B C D E all 1 min apart, going to be a massive group! D for me Yep, what's the odds of B - E NOT being one massive group by the time we hit Smitswinkels. I'm seriously worried!

Falco Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 So effectively A to E are going to form one huge group of around 2000 riders until Smitswinkel. I thought last year was a stuff up, this is going to be MUCH worse. Get ready for fun, kids. Knee and elbow pads are optional.
Wannabe Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 It's only B to F at 1 min intervals, and I'm guessing that's because there are very few mugs in those groups who would hold things up. Last year we caught the majority of E group on the stretch past Muizenberg to Kalkbay. We came to a dead stop at the intersection of Main and Boyes drive (at the Kalkbay Harbour) where it formed a bottleneck.. We stood there for a short while before getting going again.Can see it happening again this year.
Madlight Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Yep, what's the odds of B - E NOT being one massive group by the time we hit Smitswinkels. I'm seriously worried! Yep, watch the WHOLE road being used and a brake tap in B squirreling down to a full stop in G......

Gnarly Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Just stay on the front, and then you don't have to worry how big the bunch is. Madlight 1
Wannabe Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Just stay on the front, and then you don't have to worry how big the bunch is. Seriously flawed reasoning there. What happens if you catch the group ahead of you? Then you must still work your way past hundreds of other riders, with exactly the same idea, to get to the front again. Then this one big group catches the group ahead of it, etc. See where it's going? Smartie and DARK KNIGHT 2
American Flyers Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 That is crazy! They want to put ladies, sub vets, vets and masters together. What will happen when all 4 categories start to sprint to the finish!!!
StoneW Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 I honestly think this is a mix up, it takes the group about 1 minute for everyone to cross the timing matt. We will be catching the group in front of you before the Holiday Inn. Can't be correct????
Gnarly Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 You can borrow my Conti Gator skins, over take in the dirt then. DARK KNIGHT and Meezo 2
jcza Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 That is crazy! They want to put ladies, sub vets, vets and masters together.What will happen when all 4 categories start to sprint to the finish!!! Same as most other years........crash happens
Andrew Steer Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 Same as most other years........crash happensThey're just trying to up spectator value... EFC eat your heart out! jcza 1
American Flyers Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 What is wrong with CSA? Why can't they sort the seeding properly? We can't let the amateur organise it? I suggest that they do it:6:15 Elite6:16 Ladies6:20 Tandem6:21 Sub Vets6:24 Vets & Masters'6:30 A6:32 B
TPbike Posted February 11, 2014 Posted February 11, 2014 (edited) Argus seeding.... WT..? Mate has had 3 rides from January (Cape Town) used in his seeding ? all non seeding rides. Seriously ...... 2014 99er, Tour de PPA and Bouckaert? How did that happen. WT.. Edited February 11, 2014 by TPbike
