Wilro Cycle Challenge

[Underachiever]

Will be in my Kleenex Kit, come say hi please!!

[GaryvdM]

I see the Argus is not in there yet. AL but will most likely drop back. Work is screwing up my training. Did 3:15 last year. Any hubbers around that (or slightly quicker)?

 

Remember that as this is a smaller race, the range of seeding indexes within a group, and hence finish times within a group is much wider.

[Twombles]

Was EPR not Championchip and Wilro is Racetec?

I forgot about that...

 

They really need to start standardizing this timing thing.

Nope, not closed.

 

Do stay on the left of the white line, do have some fun, don't litter, don't cross the white line, don't wheelsuck the whole race.

[TALUS]

DONT forget about the RUMBLE strips!!!

[Underachiever]

What a lekker race and route, again only a few making the racing, the rest only wanted to sprint for the finish. Was good to meet a few hubbers!!

[Twombles]

Good ride! First race of the year for me and I forgot how far 114km can be!

 

Some awesome work done by Talus and his team mates in BL. Thanks guys.

[RastaMan]

Awesome ride. Met Gary. Lost a bottle on the strips again sigh. Got dropped on the hekpoort decent but 8 of us regrouped and made it back to the pack. Awesome teamwork. Then as al was doing their Sunday cruise umderchiever and I entertained them a bit with a 10to 15km breakaway. And of course followed by n crazy sprint. Awesome race. And then a tough ride home with the nc boys

[TALUS]

Good to meet Twombles. I enjoyed the fact that we had some honest workers in the bunch - including Twombles! Sadly we also had a horrible crash going down Hekpoort. Spoke to the Bike Marshall afterwards. He was badly smashed but awake. Taken to hospital. Strongs to the rider. That descent is dangerous!!! I feel more tired than expected - Bring on the Panorama!!

[Twombles]

Hope everyone who came down heals up quickly. Glad to hear that the oke who came down on Hekpoort was awake.

 

Think bike marshall did a great job!

[TALUS]

I had a long chat to him afterwards. He called us "my riders" and was very proud when I thanked him for keeping us safe and complimented his bike. We will see him again next week. Man I LOVE these guys!

[slowpoke]

Twombles it was Road Rangers NOT think bike who marshalled. Big thumbs up to the cyclists today... when I was going around keeping an eye on things after getting my bunch in, I saw almost no one over the white line.
