GaryvdM Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Hi Gary Route is the same as last year. The route to Dasville is retraced back home See u on Sunday. Ok, Then the route sheet is wrong. A - Should have a additional TR hereB - Going straight back to pro cycles. No loop. I'll ask Eddy on Sunday. See you there.
crasher Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Last year I remember we had to do a reverse of that loop on way back to get the 200km distance if you turned left into 5th without the loop last year distance was too short? see you guys in the morning

crasher Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Good turn out good ride Thanks to the all the the guys and girls that we rode with. My knee's did complain from about 180 onwards but we got there
Underachiever Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) What a great day out - the best possible weather (from a wind perspective) that one can ever hope for. Edited June 23, 2014 by Underachiever
GaryvdM Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 I found that ride tough. It felt like alot of climbing. How strong was that guy on the old Avalanche. That just shows it's really not about the bike. Well done to all that rode. Underachiever 1
GaryvdM Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 @Underachiever: I never met you. What kit were you wearing?
IceCreamMan Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) well done all.... am keen to do one or 2 of these this year (200km) ..typically how many participants and I guess the field gets pretty strung out over the course. Cheers Edited June 23, 2014 by IceCreamMan
andydude Posted June 23, 2014 Author Posted June 23, 2014 Well done guys! Sorry I didn't make it. Went our for an easy 3h mtb ride. Was it very cold?

Well done to all that rode. Checked my data on garmin last year 200.16kms and 1333m ascent this year 207.1 kms and 1457 ascent I did go back to look for my friend when I realised he was dropped out of group so that prob added 2 or 3 kms to my distance and a few m of ascent but we still must of climbed close to 100m more this year

GaryvdM Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 Anyone doing the Audax next weekend? Yes. https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/134727-aurasan-2014/page__st__192
Underachiever Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 @Underachiever: I never met you. What kit were you wearing? Can't remember to be honest. I think my Kleenex Kit ala the Wilro Race.
