I haven't had an email back with any race info on it. Usually I get something to take with me to pick up my race number. Has everyone else had a conformation email?

 

Nope. Not yet.

 

Seeding groups are visible on your racetec results page though. Search for your name here: http://results.racetec.co.za/

 

(AL for me.)

How does this seeding work?

For cycle challenge I have been seeded to start with A group, for Rand Water R4V I started in EL and rode a time of 3h00 dead and now I get seeded in FL for this event... Its like they just doing a lucky pick with my name

go check your seeding index on pedal power's website(http://www.pedalpower.org.za/)

 

R4V and this probably used that

 

94.7 is diff, they used selected races, so no matter how old the race is you get that race result, where PPA says for every 4 months after the event they penalize you with one point, so the older the more the event gets penalized.

 

So they work on 2 completely different systems. But Ive heard of quite a few guys getting into A for the 94.7 that shouldn't be there. IMHO if you seeding index is not below 15 you are gonna get dropped

Does anyone have a route profile?

 

Seriously?

 

Some nice Strava / Veloviewer stats.

 

Distance: 4.2 km Elev Gain: 218 m Avg Grade: 5.20% Max Grade: 18% KOM time: 09:31 KOM speed: 26.5 km/h KOM VAM: 1377 QOM time: 11:40 QOM speed: 21.6 km/h

 

 

Ja, looking at the map that seems clear but the route profile on the entry site is a bit confusing - one of them must be incorrect.

Based on this looks like they have different start and end points which I am sure is not correct..
