Andrek Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 anyone got pics of the floating bridge? I can go check it out this PM but really curious...
LegsEleven Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 6.30 in G batch for me, looks like its going to be a long day with some of those other start times. Really looking forward to it.
patches Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 anyone got pics of the floating bridge? I can go check it out this PM but really curious... Rode it yesterday on our regular afternoon spruit ride. As I got to the end, one of the race organizers drove up to check on it. We chatted a bit. The bridge is VERY stable. As you see people are fishing off it. Last year the Sani lagoon bridge was 3 blocks wide (if I remember correctly). I heard that this year it was 2. 5 blocks not only allows more room for lateral movement, but it's also far more buoyant. So the bridge doesn't bob as you ride along it. So those who have a floating-bridge-phobia... this one is nice and easy and safe, so give it a go!
Ispeed_V Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 7h00 for me and 7h30 for my boet. Guess I will start at 7h30 unless we can sneak my boet in..
ScottCM Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 07H15 for me but i will be dropping back to start with a mate at 07H30, make it an enjoyable ride
