Mokgaga'a mmakubela! Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Ride to the start....... ja, thats what im planning to do. sitting on traffic on the N14 and oh missing start time by 2hrs isnt fun at all. will ride from woodmead to the start
eddy Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 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.....
Frosty Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Ride to the start.......Need to add this option to my list of "to do's"
The_black_stig Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 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...
eddy Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 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
GreatGusto Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 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.
Lonika Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Hi Guys Any suggestion where I can find a corporate team to join for the 94.7 Cycle Challenge this year?
ScottCM Posted March 18, 2015 Author Posted March 18, 2015 Hi Guys Any suggestion where I can find a corporate team to join for the 94.7 Cycle Challenge this year? Hi Cleo welcome to the hub. What do you mean by corporate team?
Lonika Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 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.
chrone Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Hopefully the organisers will do something about the traffic congestion, getting there and leaving.

The_black_stig Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 How far is it from MC to the start? (Spelling...)"According to Google maps", it's around 8km.
IceCreamMan Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 Entered...an recommend riding too start...William Nichol was a dog show last year. I am around 12 kays from the start so no worries...nice lil loosener before the start
ScottCM Posted March 19, 2015 Author Posted March 19, 2015 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.
Lurch the stalker Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 Monte was a breeze last year, definitely the way to go

My legs were shot. Maybe if i train better i will consider parking at Monte and cycling to the start and back.I got stuck in traffic on the N1 highway so ended up riding from the highway. Fortunately my wife was able to pick me up after the race from the finish[emoji4]
