Thanks for a fun event. Great route, awesome riding...especially all the single track that forms part of day-1 of W2W. It was the second of 3 in the Pennypinchers series. The 3rd one is in Greyton...www.greytonclassic.co.za. Now you know.

Best race of the four I've ridden this year. I thoroughly enjoyed the deversity of the track - up and downhill gradients of all lengths and angles, single tracks, jeep tracks with sand, forest floor, paved road, gravel and loose stones as surface. The rain did make it very slippery in the last stages of the race but that is par for the course. Thanks to the organisers for a great experience. I am looking forward to the next race in Greyton.

Also thanks from my side - it was an awesome route!

More single track than I expected - quite a few passages I remembered from W2W and Epic.

Would have been cool to get hold of a warm coffee after the race though...
