So i already checked. last years winner from the P group won in in 2:56 so yes their will be quick ppls.

Dgas Posted September 15, 2015 Share Team NSPCA - we are riding for animals. Most of the members that are riding will start in this group. They're not fast/fit enough to race a lap and ride a second one. So my challenge is on to get back in time, and ride with them. http://www.nspca.co.za/ClientData/10072/Uploads/campaigns_cycle_challenge.jpg Our club's official fund-raising website (back a buddy - any amount can be donated) or R25 per SMS by texting 947-67 to 38018. I'm officially registered to start in the charity group - but considering I've been seeded in VC, I'm going to make the most of the opportunity to be somewhat selfish (first) and caring (after).What time does the charity ride start? I am starting in C so should get back to the start by 9.30 max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibali Posted September 15, 2015 Share Starting in A, but thinking of dropping back to help the old man with his first 94.7. So probably group FF for me. Too keen Long Wheel Base 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm seeded in Q (happy enough), no chance that I'm starting later in the day with buddies doing their first 94.7. Only problem is that I will probably do it on my steel 29er with 2x10 gearing (not that friendly for high speed), and possibly noblies (not phased to swap them with slicks this year).

pad man Posted September 15, 2015 Share Am I right in saying there is 3 more races to improve your seeding before 15 November? D2DSatelite94.7 MTB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brickleberry Posted September 15, 2015 Share I have been told D2D might influence the seeding still, not sure about the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rode a 2:43 R4V, so was hoping that would count towards something better. Wonder if a reseed is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted September 15, 2015 Share What time does the charity ride start? I am starting in C so should get back to the start by 9.30 max.Our one starts at 09:07 The start groups allocated to charities are: DD – 08h43 EE – 08h51 FF – 05h59 (think this is a typo - I copied from email) GG – 09h07 HH – 09h15 Edited September 15, 2015 by geraldm24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a fee or something that I would need to pay? Looking at the charity group start times I probably won't get back in time. I am starting 6.37 so assuming (hoping) that my time will be around 2.50, I will miss the 9.07 time. So a donation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
