dracs Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 The info on the website says there is only one OPEN group. 07:00 - Elites07:05 - Vets07:10 - Open07:15 - Tandemsthereafter the 40Km and 10Km eventsInteresting... small race or bun fight?
Rider3000 Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 I remember this race and did it in i think 2007.... that day was probably the hardest day in the saddle for me... i remembered there was like 1 water point and it was like in the beginning of the race.... i thought we were going to die and the sun burned us to pieces... ill never forget that ride... still got the orange t-shirt (war memorabilia)
Jay_B Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Seems same as last year, small numbers so only one group... will have to form smaller groups on the road with riders of equal strength. Weather looks good for sunday, bit of rain and overcast with light breeze.Got burnt eina last weekend at Staellite so looking forward to some cloud cover

Jay_B Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 I did the 50km last year and there was only one at the turn around point where the 100km split off... as far as I know was the only table for the 100km as well. However don't stop for it, last year was warm and unmixed powerade or they put 3/4 concentrate and 1/4 water... took half a sip and gave the cup back
FlyingScot Posted October 25, 2014 Posted October 25, 2014 Good luck tomorrow guys and girls - ride safe
Frosty Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Some wind out there today. A good training ride at race pace considering I left my timing chip at home.
bmw1za Posted October 26, 2014 Author Posted October 26, 2014 Training Ride is correct, those undulations in the wind sure put ears on me . Met some great people and effectively had fun . Cheers to one and all
Jay_B Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Wind was tough and no real groups to stay with, front group was to quick for me and then the second group completely imploded after turning off the heidelburg road... solo ride home for 2:57
FlyingScot Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 All in all a nice race...pity not many people at this one.
Prozac Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 good fun , great training . . . managed a 2:52 . . . i'll take it . . . !

Patchelicious Posted October 26, 2016 Posted October 26, 2016 Jeesh reviving an old thread - anyone doing this on sunday?Holy Moly.... Good find
shaper Posted October 26, 2016 Posted October 26, 2016 Yep will be there, just got my batch number, in AL... generally a small field though, think there was only an AL and BL last year
Frosty Posted October 26, 2016 Posted October 26, 2016 Very small race - less than 600 online entries
