FrankB Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 G @ 06:23 I'm looking forward to this one. Crashed on gravel last year... 99er 1 - me 0Thank goodness there's no more gravel this year.
Barker Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Well, i have a very bad seeding position, "S" but i guess its due to me not having done the Argus or 99er before and basically being unseeded. Have to start somewhere... The profile of the 99er is kinda scary.
Bub Marley Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Personally, I've always found this race to be tougher than the Argus. Actually, most races in the Durbanville, Paarl, Wellington area feel tougher than the Argus. I don't know if it's just the adrenaline on Argus day which makes you push a bit harder or the fact this route is just generally tougher. I dunno how the rest feels.
tsdutweet Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Feeling super slow with my "L" 06:31am start....naturally all this vissershok talk has me pretty nervous
cpelser Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 If any of you are doing the 64km route, I think this is the route map https://www.strava.com/routes/1406012

I dunno how the rest feels.A few ideas about the tougher-ness Most might not be at their peak fitness (form) before ArgusBunches splinter in the climbing finalè (exposure to the wind on the open plains)Climbing 7% plus gradients after 100 kms can be rof (to say the least)
