Bloukrans Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 Hell no! I'll rather ride back and forth on the M3. Agree - or doing laps to the airport and back!

dirtypot Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 Constantia nek is burning as i am typing this... On which side? Right at the Nek?
meparak Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 No Race = Big Party in Cape Town I paid for my flights and accommodation so we coming to the Mother City
lerouc Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 On which side? Right at the Nek?Media release from City of Cape Town:Firefighters from various agencies continue to actively manage a fire in the South Peninsula, three days after it started in Muizenberg above Boyes Drive.Currently, the firefighting efforts are focused on the following hotspots: Lower Constantia Nek and the upper Tokai area, Clovelly, Fish Hoek, Kalk Bay, Hout Bay and Noordhoek.A total of six helicopters are water-bombing hotspots, including two paid for by the City of Cape Town, two from Table Mountain National Park and two Oryx helicopters from the South African National Defence Force (SANDF). Working on Fire sourced an additional 150 staff members who have been deployed with other ground crews.Source:http://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/Cooler-weather-expected-as-Cape-fire-enters-fourth-day-20150304
dev null Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 I think at this moment it is safe to say that even OKW will be out because of the fire moving along Constantia towards Kirstenbosch and Table Mountain.
Bloukrans Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 I think at this moment it is safe to say that even OKW will be out because of the fire moving along Constantia towards Kirstenbosch and Table Mountain.Agree - what about the Cape Epic?
dirtypot Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 It's going to be difficult to make a call on the route today with the fire still burning the way that it is. Also, wind is predicted to swing to SE which will be terrible news if it does jump Constantia Nek.
dirtypot Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 Agree - what about the Cape Epic? The Epic doesn't go around the peninsula... GoLefty!! 1
Bloukrans Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 The Epic doesn't go around the peninsula...Was referring to the prologue on Table Mountain - if the fire / smoke gets there.
rock Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 I'm not riding in the northern suburbs. Or up the west coast for that matter! going to be a real tough call for the race organizers......
Meezo Posted March 4, 2015 Posted March 4, 2015 Does the T&C's mentioned anything about a natural disaster? If so does the fire(be it, a possible cigarette tosser) not constitute this?
