eddy Posted March 13, 2015 Share One word: Traffic. I am in. Will give Hell and Back a miss for a double lap. And there I was having made the decision to miss 94.7 and give Hell and Back a a bash this year. If only they would move 94.7 by a week so we could do both.....

The_black_stig Posted March 14, 2015 Share One option is to park your vehicle in Monte Casino & ride down william-nicol to the starting line.Crossing fingers that road-works will hopefully be finished by that time... wannamtber 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddy Posted March 14, 2015 Share Need to add this option to my list of "to do's"Riding to the start was not a problem. Riding home on a SS MTB was a different story altogether Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreatGusto Posted March 14, 2015 Share Also rode to the start from a mate's place. Took all the stress out of the morning. Also slept in for another hour more than usual! Amongst our group of riding mates who are all about 3:00, we concluded that the new route was about 5-7 minutes slower. wannamtber 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonika Posted March 18, 2015 Share Thanks for the warm welcome:) I mean like riding for a company - normally companies would enter a team and they enter the team as one entry and then the team starts together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrone Posted March 18, 2015 Share Hopefully the organisers will do something about the traffic congestion, getting there and leaving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottCM Posted March 19, 2015 Share As much as i hated the traffic going into Steyn i must admit i was extremely happy i didn't have to cycle up the hill on WN afterwards. My legs were shot. Maybe if i train better i will consider parking at Monte and cycling to the start and back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately my wife was able to pick me up after the race from the finish[emoji4] BouncingBrain and Aprilviv 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
