Pure Savage Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Just want to know how the winner is actually identified. Time or over line first. Dont know Rui personally.For future reference. Have to be in the first racing bunch to win the Argus, not just fastest time. Look at the ladies, winners were 4min slower than fastest lady.
B-eezy Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 I was in 6B, when we got back to Buitengracht we got stopped at the traffic light because cars were using the route. WTF
Barker Posted March 8, 2015 Posted March 8, 2015 Same. Except i was in 3H/G. I was not a happy cyclist. I was so far ahead stopped and the entire group caught up.
Bianchisti Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 I was in 6B, when we got back to Buitengracht we got stopped at the traffic light because cars were using the route. WTFEish. What was that all about?
Thor Buttox Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 I was in 6B, when we got back to Buitengracht we got stopped at the traffic light because cars were using the route. WTFIn 1F, but behind the group, happened to me too, for about a minute
GLuvsMtb Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Eish. What was that all about? the route totally locked the whole of Cape Town in, so that was the only place where they could allow motorists through. 3 days was a bit short notice to complete the Fly-overs thats been standing half built for 60 odd years.
GLuvsMtb Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Coming to Bellville from CT this morning I saw lots of loaded bike racks on cars with inland number plates. Safe journey guys.
DJR Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 I was in 6B, when we got back to Buitengracht we got stopped at the traffic light because cars were using the route. WTFThat was 1 of the concessions the organizers had to allow in order to get permission to run the route as it was. Without that, there would have been NO ARGUS this year. The short route as it ran on Sunday caused much more serious traffic disruption than the normal route. (Perhaps the PPA should make a token donation towards the completion of the fly-overs and challenge others to do the same .)
DJR Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 maybe on an electric bikeI actually saw one of those but I still flew past him.

But they should know, on the second Sunday in March you stay out of the city, unless you want to support riders or absolutely have to be there.

dev null Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Aren't you a cheery fellow. Yes, when I walk in on a party the music stops. I think you misunderstand the intent of my post.
SiriS Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Yes, when I walk in on a party the music stops. I think you misunderstand the intent of my post.Cool, but perhaps use smilies to convey intent?
dev null Posted March 9, 2015 Posted March 9, 2015 Cool, but perhaps use smilies to convey intent? Sorry, guilty as charged.
