BarHugger Posted October 25, 2014 Posted October 25, 2014 Brand new 3-day stage race in wine country........looks awesome. Link: http://www.gravelandgrape.com 3 days and 227km. Who's going?
Swart Kat Posted October 25, 2014 Posted October 25, 2014 So far I teamed up with a racing snake here from Worcester. The only thing the organisers are doing wrong for a first time 3day stage race, is marketing. They shouldve printed flyers and handed them out at the events taking place from now till next year and let anouncers speak about it! Its gonna be a nice event. They booked the whole Goudini Sa out for that weekend, so its gonna be cycling paradise! Tough its gonna be for sure, but its a long weekend and what better way to relax after a hard days racing n the hot water spa.....
BenReaper Posted October 25, 2014 Posted October 25, 2014 Does sound like a nice and toughish race.Have to agree with you about the marketing,very poor thus far.I saw something on someones facebook page about it and thats about all I've seen or heard so far.The thought of a hot water spring as a base camp for a stage race does sound very good though.
Oufy MTB (Roadie) Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 I'm in, never done stage, now to find a partner with similar ability (iow the person must be as useless as I am)
Swart Kat Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 If I was part of the organising team, much more people wouldve known about the race by now. Two of the three days are pretty much gonna be on old and 2015 Epic routes. So I really hope that they pick up their marketing a notch or two, dont want to win because I was the only one in that category.......

Rydogg Posted October 26, 2014 Posted October 26, 2014 Looks interesting. Now to find a riding partner! I'll be willing to share accommodation with someone. There are some nice 8 bedroom places at Goudini
