_David_ Posted March 27, 2014 Share I'm riding it again this year, really enjoyed it last year. Stage 1 will commence on Saturday morning with the race briefing at 06h30 and the start at 07h00. This is a tough 75km route made up with a good mix of dirt road, jeep track and single track, with some technical ascents and. Please note that this is a tough stage, and we do advise you to be fit. After the stage, you will have the chance to freshen up, and enjoy the afternoon with friends and a few cold ones. Love the "we do advise you to be fit" in the route description nonky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephton Posted March 27, 2014 Share Now I'm also looking for a route profile As long as day 1 has less than 1500m of climbing I should survive...just. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MK Killer Posted March 27, 2014 Share Doing it this year... Last year was a stuff up as Day 1 was rained out... we did Day 1 (well about 65km of it) on the Sunday Was a great tough test - looking forward to this one. Hope its dry this year!

I might be wrong but I think a couple years ago this race was called the "Honda Challenge". I cant remember it ever being a dry race...

I cant remember it ever being a dry race...I missed day one but rode day 2. Yup, it used to be the Honda Challenge. Certain sections are very rocky, need to ride them with your brain and not your b*lls. Some bad accidents two years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worst part is the last 10km or so through heavy long grassy sections.... leg killer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
