FlyingScot Posted July 16, 2015 Share Sure? Does the front of A use 50 34? Just saw some of the downhill speed. I can push 63kmph at 120 cadence but that's it. I reckon you should be fine...rather be comfortable on the climbs and suck wheel down the hill... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patchelicious Posted July 16, 2015 Share Sure? Does the front of A use 50 34? Just saw some of the downhill speed. I can push 63kmph at 120 cadence but that's it.The only long down hill is towards the end of Stage 2, but the group would more than likely have split up by then. You should be fine. AAAANNND in any case, with your bike you could just freewheel slipstream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IdeJongh Posted July 17, 2015 Share YR shows nice and toasty temps (remember sunscreen) Wind looks good as well, off the left for the first stage but clears up towards mid day. Maybe bit of a tail wind heading back to Nelspruit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
