That looks like the entry to the storm drains at the golf club / Barry hertzog intersection

[skipperw]

Yup. Looks like Parkview Golf Course.

Haha! That's our pic, must have been one of our race fans posting it. Will say HI in the events thread - but if I remember correctly, that was Parkview Golf Course.

Yea, they've had to do some solid engineering with their scaffolding...must have been a mission to get the materials in there, as the whole place is fenced off...looks like it should be a great ride!

The drop in to the Barry Hertzhog tunnel

I watched the race clip on Supercycling and was wondering about the dropoffs/step downs in the storm water drains. I can only imagine that it must be full of algae and moss, so you will probably see a lot of scraps and cuts from the inevitable wipeouts. Will the route avoid this or is it just a case of ride with care and try stay upright?

.....mmmmm......considering the area, obstacles, infrastructure, muck, sludge and possibility for some scrapes and cuts.......tetanus shots needed

Spoke to the organizers and they are scrubbing the algae off with metal brushes and building ramps down the stairs to make it safer.
