HollardJUMA Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 Hello HUBbers! Just a final(ish) note from me, the organisers and Hollard... We wanted to extend a HUGE thank you to everyone who rode and gave us feedback about the event (either in person or on this hallowed forum!). We have acknowledged that water points and bottlenecks were definitely a problem, along with a few other things. These are very fixable problems and we’re going to pull out all the stops to make sure we improve year on year. We’re all just excited that you experienced what we wanted you to - the most unique MTB race in JHB - and an event that celebrated our “biggest man-made forest in the world”! Oh, and the black market trade in Hollard Bells is quite amusing. Can you ring a medal? Ha! Perhaps we’ll run a poll next year for a “unique” finishers gift. Thanks again, keep an eye on the social media channels for videos and pictures. Make sure you check out our coverage on SuperSport. SS8. 10 November 2014 at 20h30. And a final note, due to the success of the event: Hollard, the race organisers, as well as some other interested parties, are soon going to be looking into more ways to improve and sustain the Spruit going forward. That's a win all round. See you on the trails! #TEAMJUMA Check out: https://www.facebook.com/HollardInsurance Check out: https://www.facebook.com/urbanMTB -- Andy

RFC311 Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 @Wyatt Earp I hear your point. When I ride a 40km training ride I take 2 water botles and am ok. But my point is also valid- If Eqstra can have 2/3 water points for a 23km race, then Juma can have 2 for a 53km race. That is all I am saying. Especially on the latter half, when it is hotter, one is more tired, and it is uphill. Just makes sense to me that is all. I assumed this, and hence only took 1 bottle and that was not enough. Now I know to assume nothing even for R350. I enjoyed the race and hope to do it again next year with more skill and fitness and more experience of what races are all about.+1
Danger Dassie Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 +1 Not defending the lack of water points or running out of water. But..... at no point, anywhere, in a suburban event. Did no one see the opportunity for a tap to use?
