davetapson Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Enjoyed this - but it is pretty flat. Which is why I probably enjoyed it...

Richard29 Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 You joking right? its generally a flat race....but had some nice bumps in, flat compared to walkerville classic or the monster
Grey Hubs Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 its generally a flat race....but had some nice bumps in, flat compared to walkerville classic or the monsterI'm by no means a strong rider. So those "bumps" I clearly remember as steep, rocky climbs.No doubt I need more experience!
flat29 Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 (edited) I'm by no means a strong rider. So those "bumps" I clearly remember as steep, rocky climbs.No doubt I need more experience! Those were some speed bumps. If you looking to climb then do Vangaalens, monster or for a bit more sabie and mankele. Did Mankele 3 weeks ago, first climb was about 10km Edited April 7, 2014 by flat29

Active Monkey Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 its generally a flat race....but had some nice bumps in, flat compared to walkerville classic or the monster I knew some oak was gonna pipe up calling it flat. It def wasn't flat...or even just bumpy. Richard29 1
Grey Hubs Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Thanks Active Monkey! Grateful someone felt my pain!
Waynehans Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 I had a good day, took off 25min off last years time, (75) the last section along the river is cool, struggled with a 10km bleeding nose at 20km and a fall just after thorn alley. Hooked 2/3 guys on district road towards the big climb and set a good pace up there. Lots of mud in places and got Lekkka dirty. Had a cooler box full of cold ones waiting at the finish...!!!Thanks guys, good race, be there next year again..!!
