That's generally the area and source of most of the injuries. 50 plus KPH and not seeing a stone / rock / water bar in the middle of the road, with your seat jammed up your arse. That or a blowout...

capediver Posted March 1, 2014 Share What I have heard so not sure how true it is... A lady. Where the tar meets the jeep track near the top. Heard she is in bad shape. Lots of broken bones. AGAIN just what I have heard. I hope the person is ok.Ooooo, coming down from the Mast road...know that spot well! Hope all is well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a long and dangerous trip down in an ambulance. Also people come flying down there and don't take the transition into consideration Hope she pulls through!

flymango Posted March 1, 2014 Share Wishing the injured cyclist a full and speedy recovery. Never nice to hear stories like this. A (lady) friend of mine came short at that little section just in front of me a few years back. A combination of over-inflated tyres, speed, sand and marbles, can spring a few nasty surprises in no time.
