nathrix Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Can't wait for The Munga to start tomorrow. Interesting route, part of the route is also part of the Old Forgotten Highway/Original Diamond Route between Ceres and Kimberley. It's going to be hard, very hard! Will be interesting to see what everyone's strategies going to be, where they sleep and for how long, equipment, weather, terain, etc . Good luck! Munga 2015 Live Tracker
Shebeen Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 if nothing else, this is AFAIK the first local race to use the SPOT tracking system. it uses satellites, so none of this GSM darkholes where vodacom/mtn (understandably)don't have reach. only recently been available here, as you can see there's a new dot over our country http://www.findmespot.ca/images/spotcoveragemap/spot_coverage_feb6_2015.jpg this is how it used to be....for ages (who's the naughty boy n the class here?!) http://www.gpscity.com/g/gps/s/s/spot_coveragemap.jpg
nathrix Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 The live tracking is awesome making it easy to follow individuals! Who needs tv
ChUkKy Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 How many entrants are there for this race?I remember all the hype last year, then it fell off the radar.
nathrix Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 How many entrants are there for this race?I remember all the hype last year, then it fell off the radar. I stand to be corrected, but think there are about 30 entries. Should get an accurate figure on the live timing tomorrow when it kicks off.
dirtrider Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Think it could be a nice race to do until I read the CSA bit . Pity I would have liked to do it .
Trackz Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 I stand to be corrected, but think there are about 30 entries. Should get an accurate figure on the live timing tomorrow when it kicks off.As of this morning. 43 entries of which 5 ladies.
ChUkKy Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 As of this morning. 43 entries of which 5 ladies. With that few entries this will be the first and last Munga....
jcza Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 With that few entries this will be the first and last Munga.... Think you might be right. Over-priced I think.
