Skubarra Posted March 31, 2015 Share So if i dont start in the A batch im have to get of my bike and push it at the Ou Wa Pad? No matter how fit or syrong you ride? It's not about how fit & strong you are, you walk because of the 100's of less fit & less strong riders ahead of you on the jeep track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milky4130 Posted March 31, 2015 Share So if i dont start in the A batch im have to get of my bike and push it at the Ou Wa Pad? No matter how fit or syrong you ride?depends on how much you want it i.e. stay on your bike for as long as can, then bundu bashing might do the trick. You'll be amazed guys seeded in the A batch clogging up the trail, pushing their bikes, some are so harregat they won't even have the courtesy to let you pass. Cause in their minds if they are pushing you should also be pushing or "they paid to walk there so deal with it" attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddy Posted March 31, 2015 Share So if i dont start in the A batch im have to get of my bike and push it at the Ou Wa Pad? No matter how fit or syrong you ride?No. It definitely gets worse down the field but i dropped back to C and rode the whole way. You are better off being near the front of your group.

Cadre Posted April 28, 2015 Share 2 weeks before the race started.Hi Milky. Been following your comments and without a doubt it seems you are the main source of info on K2C. Thanks for the input. It will also my first K2C and longest gravel travel ever. Question..... how far into the race does one come across Die Ou Wapad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wannabe Posted April 28, 2015 Share Hi Milky. Been following your comments and without a doubt it seems you are the main source of info on K2C. Thanks for the input. It will also my first K2C and longest gravel travel ever. Question..... how far into the race does one come across Die Ou Wapad? Right at the beginning, only a km or so on tar / gravel, then the "Ou Wapad" starts.Still lots of guys around jostling for position, so things do get quite hectic.
