Shoeee, conditions were benign.

 

Not too hot, what wind there was wad typically from behind, road surface smooth after the rain. Lêkker. ...

I thought the conditions were a bit worse than 4 years ago when I last did it, especially up the Wa Pad, but still managed to beat my old time for the 91km route by 8mins,so a lovely day out. And yes, those forests are beautiful if you can spare a moment to look around! :)

Wie was op podium en wat was hul tye?

Matt Beers won in 3:12, which is cool for him cause his mom unfortunately passed recently.

Robyn won ladies again in 3:32

 

Times a bit slower, mostly due to Wapad being washed out from heavy rains.

 

I did Dr Evil leading up to this. Within 10mins of the race start I knew the last 4 days had taken it's toll and I was going to struggle.

 

Then on the big pass decent a guy took a tumble off the cliff right in front of me, I was the only one who stopped to help him, then decided that it wasn't worth it to race anymore and rode at my own pace, didn't time from there but think I came in at about 4hrs.

 

From the guys not stopping to help the poor dude who cartwheeled off the cliff to the guys screaming at each other to KEEP LEFT to the guys who sat on my wheel from Simola to the finish to then sprint the last 50m for 120th spot, I again realise that this thing about MTBers being chilled and friendly is a klomp ***!

Oh: and anyone know what happened to Mr Kleinhans today? Not sure who came third so maybe he did...since was not first or second. He has some bad luck runs, seems to be happening again - mechanical in Dullstroom last Sat.

How did it go at Dr Evil? In the groups I was riding, asked are you on bikehub,looking for fellow Hubbers, only got one bloke, but he left met behind.
