El Scorcho Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 I live in Sunninghill, old start/finish point was perfect for me
Pusher Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 The road conditions on the R114 are terrible and Dainfern hill will shock a few guys.
Ispeed_V Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) That climb up to Dainfern right at the end will be a killer for most Damn, was loooking forward to rolling out of bed and strolling to start now that my brother lives in Waterfall Estate (guess that wont be) Edited June 23, 2014 by HFS1000
Frosty Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) Here's the profile from the Cotworld (just after the Zoo) to Summit Road (old and new) edit: New on top - the section in the red border is from the Lion Park intersection to Mnandi/Summit Road Edited June 23, 2014 by geraldm24
Twombles Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) Just got this link in twitter, there is an option to see the route profile. A few extra lumps in the profile but no drastic change imo. http://947.mapit.co.za/# edit: forgot link Edited June 23, 2014 by Twombles The_black_stig, Skubarra and Frosty 3
Ispeed_V Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Just got an SMS from race organisers of the new route

Woodmead Corner shopping centre opened up and the entrance is right off the old finish straight to Waterfalls main entrance. Steyn City's developing partner is Century Properties so this makes sense for them to promote this new development Gandalf and TALUS 2
Blue Monster Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) To the naysayers, just look forward to a change, ride as hard as always, and be glad that you have road closure.I am glad I did the previous route last year, my first 94.7, and am looking forward to this new route.It will have the same vibe, if not better.Just ride.

SurferChild Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 The start of this profile reminds me of the Amashova race where you climb straight out of PMB and then only the route settles down
