Make sure you cross the line with me, I call the wife from the top of sunrise hill and she waits on the finish straight with a beer :drool:

we rode shongweni / Summerveld on Sunday and finished our 50k ride around 12ish ...it was a tad warm in the valley .....Hydration with electrolytes is going to be much needed if temps are the same.

And a mighty fine establishment to spend the night at the day before the race

I am a weekend warrior but have already entered the 100km- great what have I done :eek:

Entered a 100km dirt road ride... you'll *** off on the hills on the end if you're not fit. Enjoy.

I also rode Shongweni/Alverstone yesterday and it was humid- weather looks better for the race though so fingers crossed.

It is extremely technical!!!,LMFAO sorry could not resist,some might say it is technical but I don't really think it's too much to worry about,fitness should be more of your worry.
