VVC Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 Great Race G. I loved the personal numbers and interaction. It takes it to another social level. Kudos for that. Will be back next year hope you secure racetec as supplier. Not that I have anything against CC. Just seeding NB for some of us. Take Care.VvC
Frosty Posted February 22, 2015 Author Posted February 22, 2015 Great Race G. I loved the personal numbers and interaction. It takes it to another social level. Kudos for that. Will be back next year hope you secure racetec as supplier. Not that I have anything against CC. Just seeding NB for some of us. Take Care.VvCWe did the seeding ourselves using Racetec and CC results.If more event organisers are willing to share their results, which are available publically anyway, the seeding will be just as accurate as it can be. Edit: I think I may have missed your message - I was tired last night.This race IS used in many other races for seeding events. Just go to the pedal power seeding results and you'll see it there. I know how Cycle Events do their seeding - we have used them before.
awesme Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 Hate having had to miss this. But not being able to properly breath is sort of a requirement... Just could not get rid of the germs in time. G

Bianchisti Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 Thanks Clay , That gives Insight ... It really was a brilliant Event !!!Howzit dude. How was your ride? Sorry we didn't catchup. I sneaked in for some family issues on friday, realised there was a race and thought what the heck. Heading back tonight. Boarding in the next hour.
Frosty Posted February 22, 2015 Author Posted February 22, 2015 Well done Wheelers, angreat effort and result from you again. Even the vip tent was relatively free of riff-raff.think we should be saying "thank you" for your guy's continued support
Frosty Posted February 22, 2015 Author Posted February 22, 2015 Hi guys,Did anyone manage to pick up a GoPro today at the Carnival City Macsteel Classic.It came off my bike shortly after the start, where the road was under construction and incredibly bumpy. I was riding in group BLPlease let me know guys, I would really appreciate it.Contact details are details are:Michael Frantzeskou082 613 3667Thanks everyone.No-one marshalling there saw it. Sorry we can't help
Bianchisti Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 This was a team ( club ) effort, so if you see or know Germiston Wheelers members please let them know. As mentioned before, I'm just a link in the chain that turns the wheels.Met some of your club mates yesterday. Good effort by all. Well done and thanks for the help last week. I got to bed at midnight last night with no intention of racing. Woke up at 4am, couldn't sleep no more, pinned on the number and dont regret it. Maar nou voel Ek soos n vrot vel.
FrantzM Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 No-one marshalling there saw it. Sorry we can't helpThanks very much for the response. Please any riders out there, please let me know if you picked it up. A reward will be given. Thanks
Harryn Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 Gerald, I just cant believe the box who drove through the finish! 1. What on earth motivated him to pull the stunt?2. How did you get him out the way before VA arrived? - could have been nasty3. Was he arrested?
Jaco Steyn Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 This was the first time in probably 5 years that I did not do this race. And usually this one is one of my favourite races on my calendar, but I decided to do the Bielie Mielie race in Reitz this year. I have always said that I wanted to do that one, and I am glad I did it. But, having said that, I really missed doing the Carnival City Macsteel race! Hope to be there on the 28th of February 2016.
Joe Low Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 Pic of Wyatt and myself waiting to start.Looks like either: a) determined team with their race faces on b) a couple who've had a row in the car on the way down over who forgot the shammy cream.
Kerbouchard Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Great job Gerald, This race was the safest that I have ridden this year, water points well manned and marshal's excellent in directing and managing traffic.
bmw1za Posted February 23, 2015 Posted February 23, 2015 Howzit dude. How was your ride? Sorry we didn't catchup. I sneaked in for some family issues on friday, realised there was a race and thought what the heck. Heading back tonight. Boarding in the next hour.It was great Seeing you buddy , will catch up next time . I was in a 7 man break which turned to a 3 man break, those 2 laaities put the hammer down and after an hour I was busted, no way 3 of us were gonna survive in that wind ... limped to the end with some lovely cramps but had a great time out there ... 3h04 Took a whole 2 mins off last years time
