Entered myself and the missus... I will be trying to finish 1 lap in time to start with her for a second lap.

 

We will both be riding for the dreamriders again... can't wait!!

Just came to me, this event had a lot of talk about new route vs old route in terms of difficulty and climbing etc.

 

 

But i don't recall anyone mentioning how their race time improved in the new route over the old one.

 

So hear it goes, last year was my second 947 and i did it in 3H40 in a mostly solo ride starting in the charity batches. My previous attempt was completed in 4H29 in a total solo ride starting in the SS batches as it was my first ever event.

 

Time improved sees a nett time gain of 49min

 

Who else bettered their time on the new route?

No ability to chase leading groups down, no ability to race with the manne, but I will be there for a saunter around Jozi .

1st year - 05:43:28 (Old route) - Unfit and battled. Solo`ed the whole ride.

2nd year - 04:36:35 (Old Route) - Slightly less unfit but still battled. Alot of solo riding.

3rd year - 03:37:21 (New Route) - Still not fit enough but enjoyed myself, only suffered in steyn city with cramps(last 5km). A little more group riding - only solo`ed at the end.
