lerouc Posted April 17, 2014 Share Is it just me or is it getting expensive to do events? R220...i saw namibian events and they ask R100 for the longest and R60 for the middle distances... Compared to R125 for the Tru-Cape...(R100 if your PPA ) Edited April 17, 2014 by lerouc Ratty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dev null Posted April 17, 2014 Share I believe so. Online entries closes the 7th. How tough is the 35km? Compared to the Vineyard 26km? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevief Posted April 17, 2014 Share Such a pity. Tru Cape is awsome. I am doing this one, entered.Tru Cape used to be my best race on the calender, but i found that the route gets congested with the 25km riders sharing the same tracks and it becomes a bottlenecked. The route itself is awesome but the "quality of technical skills) by the participants is left wanting. Its a pity. So i will be heading off to 65km of hurt in wellington Meezo, Johny Bravo and The Search 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Search Posted April 17, 2014 Share You can enter on the day. Don't know anything of the Vineyard race. Is that the race at Lourensford? The 35km will take you to places in Wellington that will take your breath away. You need to be some kind of fit for it. Johny Bravo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did the 26km in 1h58, so I am neither a racing snake, neither am I a backmarker. I should be able to handle the 35km. Was just wondering how they compare. I believe the Gravel Travel have some awesome singletrack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
