D Vader Posted June 10, 2014 Posted June 10, 2014 On the same day as Napier patatfees mtb. The town nextdoor. Nee manne, julle moet met mekaar praat. There are not that many events at this time in this area, bad planning/communication? Now I have to miss one and I wanted to do both. Sidmouth, Skubarra and Links MTB 3
lerouc Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 Klein Bietjie teleurgesteld, roete was awesome en marshalls vriendelik. Toe ek by eindstreep kom (onder 4h) toe is die coke al weggepak en daar het net n laaitie na my toe gekom en my bord geknip. Ek chat toe met vriende wat sê hul het medaljes gekry. Ek gaan praat toe met die organiseerder en hy sê toe net hy weet nie waar die ander medaljes is nie ek moet maar een by sy winkel kom optel. Die lucky draw het te laat begin, ons het besluit om te waai want die reen was oppad en net toe ons by kar kom toe sak hy neer. Dan die ander punt, die parkering, is daar geen manier om die parkering nader aan die venue te kry nie? Ek wil nie eens weet hoe nat die mense geraak het wat nog kar toe moes stap vanaf venue nadat dit begin reen het nie. Maar ja ek moet seker vroeer klaar maak om alles te kry wavoor ek betaal het.
waveduke Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 I really enjoyed the race.It was the second time for me riding the Greyton Classic. The route is awesome and was almost the same stretch we rode on the Epic this year. The weather was holding up perfectly but unfortunately only until the price giving. I don't consider the parking being quite a distance away from the venue a problem - use it as a warm up. The food stalls where nice and the venue itself is fantastic. Furthermore - at which day race have you ever been provided with mobile hot showers?Greyton will see me next year again for sure.

BreeRivier MTB (newly built for event) as well as Computer Mania (mobile) @ Nuy in the last 3 months. My wife use it after the short route. Its brilliant.

Not an issue for the riders but more for the supporters/family coming along.
JGR Posted June 17, 2014 Posted June 17, 2014 (edited) Great race and nice vibe. I drove back to Cape Town so the showers were really great Edited June 17, 2014 by JGR

Its brilliant.It's cool that event organizers think about that. I found it such a good idea especially in winter when there is a great risk of fetching a cold. Edited June 17, 2014 by waveduke
