ACM Posted January 29, 2015 Share Most packing done. Will be leaving PTA at about 14:00 tomorrow. Getting excited and nervous at the same time. But looking forward to the race.Weather looks much better than earlier in the week - happy about that. After SabieX in December I was less keen on another mud bath.Drive safe & have a good race on Saturday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warthog Posted January 30, 2015 Share Morning. We've had fair bit of rain Tuesday and Wednesday - definitely more that 6 mm- but except for some really fine drizzle yesterday, no real rain since Wednesday night. There's bound to be wet patches, but no mud bath- provided it stays like it is. Come and enjoy!!! and drive safe!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warthog Posted January 30, 2015 Share I'm doing the Crazy Ultra. Lol. I'm glad the weather looks good. Thanks Warthog for keeping us updated. I appreciate it.You're welcome. Sun's trying to poke head through the clouds... I don't think the ultra will be that bad- the last 30 is really gentle- that said, I've only ridden it on fresh legs...

rawbone Posted January 30, 2015 Share Does anyone know who's doing the timing? I take it we bring our SAS number boards like previous years when it was under the MTN series? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heel Drop Posted January 30, 2015 Share weather improved as well to only 3mm of rain -I think its racetec timing it , but not 100% sure maybe the orginisers can advise - Do we get number boards when we register ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
