Pure Savage Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Weird this new numbering system... What is wrong with A,B,C etc?06h05 - 1A - 1D at 1 minute intervals06h09 - 2A to 2M at 1 minute intervals06h25 - 3A to 3M at 3 minute intervals07h01 - 4A to 4M at 2 minute intervalsSeeded in % but will drop back a few groups on doctor's orders, maybe this will be the first year where I crest Helz with the rest of my group Edit: Just realised this is about 45 groups... So smallish groups of about 150 each?Its stop people comparing seedinga I guess!should just ride where you seeded and don't worry. Smaller groups are much better.
Tubehunter Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Better half's first long race and starting with her at 7:03. Guess that's 4B.
jkoorts Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Its stop people comparing seedinga I guess!should just ride where you seeded and don't worry. Smaller groups are much better. no comprehende
'Dale Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Will definitely miss the zig-zag and scenery of Old Helz.... :-(
Mopkop Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Will definitely miss the zig-zag and scenery of Old Helz.... :-(They are cutting out the most beautiful section of the event!
Pure Savage Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 no comprehendeIt stops people being able to compare a G ppa seeding to a PPA G etc. So people cant try compare seeding's.
Skubarra Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 Smaller groups are much better. The smaller groups at minute intervals are going to be interesting, Other than $ & % I expect the groups will mix-up quite a bit up Helz which is nice. Ride up Helz at your own pace and then join up with whoever is with you at the other side to make a group for the stretch to Wellington.

Which is great as its a great way to seed field as very hard to hide on a climb
CleatsnCleavage Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 2C at 6.11am. Whoop whoop. Thought about dropping back a group or two cos my climbing is up to **** so Im bound to get dropped on Hels. Prob still get dropped even in a lower group so just going to suck it up and find a new group at the top. Cant wait. Anyone driving from Edgemead/Monte Vista area and want to share lifts please PM me. Hate going to races alone.

Dubbin Posted November 26, 2014 Posted November 26, 2014 3K at 6:52. Is there more entries than last year? I'm starting 16 minutes later this year. Thought I improved
Winstonian1984 Posted November 26, 2014 Posted November 26, 2014 3K at 6:52. Is there more entries than last year? I'm starting 16 minutes later this year. Thought I improved first start was 5:50 last year and there are more groups this year as well as the elites going off at 6:00
