Don't know if it's been mentioned. .but did anyone notice that Cavendish removed his helmet when the national anthem was played....but then again most of you guys were there already ...so maybe not ...I had a more civilised starting time of 09h30...

B.t.w. Why is it that the National Anthem was played for the first time only this year? I loved it and I hope they do it again. :thumbup:

So after looking at my VIP results I discover this year had more finishers than any other year the closest was in 2004 at 31219! Maybe a shorter route is best for mass participation - is that not the event is a mass participation funride!!!! Even more finishers than when those who could were allowed to do it twice!

 

Apparently the shorter event does not suit me one of my worst positions!!!

I heard from a little bird that this was the last year that the Expo would be at the Good Hope Centre. Also, that the City of Cape Town is planning to demolish it. (Read it as hearsay, perhaps someone closer to the City can confirm?) 

 

I don't know when it will be demolished or how the site will be re-developed. I also don't know where the Expo will be moved to, but the most logical venue must surely be the International Convention Centre.

Why am didn't the just keep us I the flyover and let us ride I front of the harbour and come down I front of the waterfront entrance and then left towards the stadium?

See a lot of people didn't make the 3 hour cut-off yet their results appear on Racetec.....

did the organizers extend the cut-off to cater for the congestion at the finish or will the info still be adjusted to reflect only those that finished within the 3 hour time limit ?

I suspect that they threatened with the 3 hour cut off to make sure everyone is off the freeway at a reasonable time so that they could normalize traffic.
