hayleyearth Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 What group you starting in? A good time is largely dependent on what group you in. If your in one of the back groups id say its very unlikely you'll break 3 hours and if your a licensed vet you should go in under 3 easily bar issues. And if he is starting in I...sub 3 would be ave
Bomberman Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 Here are some statistics from 2014. Times are rounded down to 2min. (But to answer your question, you need to decided how to define "good") Female Male Unknown All Mode 04:02 03:38 03:54 03:56 Mean 04:51 04:14 04:13 04:22 Percentiles: 0% 02:40 02:22 02:32 02:22 5% 03:16 02:48 02:42 02:50 10% 03:32 02:58 02:54 03:02 25% 04:00 03:24 03:22 03:30 50% 04:44 04:02 03:58 04:12 75% 05:34 04:52 04:46 05:04 Screenshot from 2015-11-02 14-35-46.pngIts seems Im at about 50%, not bad .... I think.I spend most of my riding on my MTB and mainly single track riding, the only time my road bike is used is for the 94.7 and that's about it. Thank you for the info, will have to gun it for the 25%.
Bomberman Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 What group you starting in? A good time is largely dependent on what group you in. If your in one of the back groups id say its very unlikely you'll break 3 hours and if your a licensed vet you should go in under 3 easily bar issues.The past two years I have started at 8 in the morning (I think its around P OR Q), I ride for a charity so I'm not placed according to my actual seeding time.
'Kaze Pete Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 Been wondering, whats a good or average time to finish the race in?I did my first race in 2013 and finished in 4 hours and 15min, last year I did it in 4 hours. Not sure what would be a good av time.If you can beat my slowest time, you're done okay...
Catatonic_Joe Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Nobody doing the MTB?? I'm there, starting in A4

TALUS Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Starting A1. I will be very cautious. Usually I am just back from W2W with lekker sharp MTB reflexes. This year I did only the roadie thing... I will be riding a full rigid so there will be no help from the bike. I seem to remember a section in Northern farm where the rockgarden was quite challenging. I will sommer walk those.
JJDT Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 First time doing the 55km and the MTB event...Mostly done 30km races during the year and decided that I will take the step to the big boys playing field. This was a mistake for me because of seeding and starting way at the back 8:30. Should've rather stayed with 30km better seeding and do 50km + races next year for a better seeding.
Cas_1 Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 In for MTB starting A1 so hope the congestion/ bottlenecks isn't to bad.
TALUS Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 In for MTB starting A1 so hope the congestion/ bottlenecks isn't to bad. Last year was much better than previous years. Proper race.
Pieterlab1 Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 I'm only in on the 30km. I'm seeded in B1 !!!
Catatonic_Joe Posted November 3, 2015 Posted November 3, 2015 Been doing the 55 for a few years now, got better every year. Started in A5 last year, hardly any bottle necks etc. Whatever the case, juts going to have some fun, and get some training for the next Sunday.
