TALUS Posted May 23, 2015 Posted May 23, 2015 brr is correct, fortunately it warmed up nicely ... Talus i didnt see you ... Lost the bunch on the 50km mark when i missed the surge and couldnt close the gap , cramped a bit in the last 9 ks after riding with a lekke group and a tandum . 2h59 ... cut it close I expected a better turnout but a good day overall . CheersI must have been in the group with you for a while. I had to go it alone for the last 12km after the group just wouldn't go anymore. Ended 2:45. Back tomorrow with my fatbike.
WrightJnr Posted May 23, 2015 Posted May 23, 2015 Interesting start schedule. I will be on the road Saturday and back again on Sunday with my fatbike. All depending on my flu. Expect a cold start, fast race, wind and some potholes on Saturday. For Sunday it will be sandy at times with FAST singletrack and lots of turns and twists. Great fun, Oh and thorns.....(Sorry BH)I did the 45km route today. Riding the 20km with my kids tomorrow. Lots of soft sand out the back section and LOTS of thorns. Got 4 in the back, eventually ran out of sealant too. Never seen so many thorn twigs on the floor. Let's hope for better luck tomorrow. I don't feel like fixing kids wheels all day.
Rob Mortimer Posted May 24, 2015 Posted May 24, 2015 My first road race in 15 years so more than happy with my 3:03 for the long one The difference in intensity from mtb is quite remarkable - the first and last time I saw the 40 - 49 bunch was when they said "Go" on the start line!!! Us Mtb'ers might make fun of the Roadies but they can sure pedal a bike
