River Rat Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Road Lodge in Nelspruit is buzzing with cyclists in the Southwing and the ANC in the Northwing. As it turns out the cyclists are the left wing for the night and I asked the concierge if the ANC were fighting, his answer? "They are always fighting" . Man, I love this country!
ACM Posted January 30, 2015 Posted January 30, 2015 Race nr collected.Staying @ jathira - looks good. Lots of cyclist here.Weather looks good for tomorrow - according to YR!Have fun out there!

ACM Posted January 31, 2015 Posted January 31, 2015 What a tough race! 5:08 for the marathon - very happy with result seeing that cramps started at 30km and had to nurse legs for the rest of the race :-(Race was well organized.Route very well marked.Lots of riders, but never felt crouded.Waterpoints a bit dissappointing with only bananas to eat - but lots of waterpoints with friendly locals! So can't complain.Barberton marathon in the bag ????
Heel Drop Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 great race and fantastic views for the first 77km , but a little dissapointed with the last 30km compared ot the first 77km and no waterpoint. Please rather for the ultra do more of the mountain scenery stuff its well worth it even if it means a little more climbing Best race for me in terms of enjoyment thanks to the orginizers
Lexx Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 I agree, that last 30km was extremely hot and "Boring" Where can we see our Results?

Lexx Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Ah ok Cool Thanks. The 110km was so Tough, I cracked my Frame. Only Saw it when i washed my Bike yesterday.So this was actually a very expensive Race, lol.

Lexx Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Dont think i will get it fixed. Outsurance must just pay out for a new frame. " i hope" lol
ACM Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Dont think i will get it fixed. Outsurance must just pay out for a new frame. " i hope" lolIf it's insured under all risk they will. Carbon frame?
Lexx Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 If it's insured under all risk they will. Carbon frame?Nope, its Aluxx. But im going to try and organise that i can reolace it with a carbon Frame?
ACM Posted February 1, 2015 Posted February 1, 2015 Nope, its Aluxx. But im going to try and organise that i can reolace it with a carbon Frame? Not sure what they do with aluxx frames - fix/replace, but carbon normally replace. If they replace your alluxx you should ask them for cash settlement (same value) - I'm sure they will.
