Stricker Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Hi Gents, Need some advise from the guys that have achieved the above mentioned time :Would like to set myself some goals to judge progress against when I do the ride, so basically a landmark with time against it. This is where I think I should be ,but is probably out, please help Fishoek - 45minBottom of smits -60minMisty Cliffs -90minOcean view -100minBottom of chappies -140minBottom of Suikerbossie -170minEnd -180min
Prozac Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 you will receive a card with split times as part of your race pack and on the CTCT website i believe there is a split time calculator . . . Just gooi mielies ! I work on 2:20 over chappies . . .
PJP2013 Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 I think you a bit out there. There should be a pace chart in your race guide.

Thomo Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 What ever the target, allow ±20/25 min from from top of Suikerbossie/Llandadnou.
Thomo Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 10 minutes from bottom of suikerbossie....Damn ramster, have you been visiting Mr Armstrong? Not too sure what was meant by bottom ... bottom before climbing, or bottom after descending.?
Dazshell Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Here you go. We get it every year.ArgusPaceChart-March2013_final.pdf
Winstonian1984 Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Not too sure what was meant by bottom ... bottom before climbing, or bottom after descending.?Definitely not bottom before climbing, From 12 apostles its about 10-11km. Either way he will have to pull out a super human effort
KidCharlemagne Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 I love it when guys become obsessed with a sub 3. Be it 104km or 109km, a sub 3 it must be. I don't even bother anymore. I do the race, check the results a few days later and there it is, 2:50 again.

paul_ct Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 From the Split Time Calc tab here: http://www.cycletour.co.za/route/http://www.cycletour.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/SplittimeCalc.xlsx
nikki Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Be at the top of suikerbossie by 2h30. That'll give you 30min to get to the finish. Should enough time to get a sub 3
Skubarra Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Ramster - not trying to be nasty but unless you are in the right group you are not going to do a sub-3. Time-split charts are useless. Everything depends on the conditions of the day and what the group is doing. My advice, forget about sub 3, go out and ride as fast as you can and enjoy the day. Next season use your good Argus time as a launchpad to a better seeding and then a sub-3
J∆kk∆ls Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 Ill be happy with a sub 7..... Your arse wont be though
