Shebeen Posted June 19, 2015 Share Cutoff is 13 days at Hofmeyr (Race Office).Still a big ask. If he gets to Romans tonight he'll be good but there's still a lot of work left to accomplish that. 130km in distance but some tricky nav bits ahead that will need sharp focus.He's done well on the tricky bits out of Krantzkop. TickNot so tricky bit between Brosterlea/Stormberg. Should be ok. Follow tracks.Stormberg not so simple if you haven't been there before. Hopefully good tracks to follow.If he has it rough, there are a few farm houses between Stormberg/Romans to duck into and if he gets past Stormberg, he should be ok to push from there to Romans to Hofmeyer tomorrow.The pivots after Stromberg, before Romans have caught out riders before, not a clear/obvious route always & if he pushes for Romans he's going through there in the dark. Risky bit. Holding thumbs! Good luck Pierre!he's passed brosterlea, stef and will for a Calorie Bonanza tonight! Would be quite cool to see them try pull him off the course at the hofmeyr pie stop.... someone please get the video camera rolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately the riding not too difficult but he's been riding solo for a few days now and some tricky nav ahead as the sun starts getting thin. C'mon Pierre, now's the time vir kromruggie, hardegat en sterk koppie! You can do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slowbee Posted June 19, 2015 Share Common Dirt Man. Usually I am interested in the FC, but this time I am kinda immersed in it. I don't know if I can make 20 odd days of this. My nerves will be shot and the boss will fire me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
