Pure Savage Posted August 13, 2015 Share Last year I moaned about the PPA and no road league and said they need to up their game for their roadies, in this mornings letter the following was announced. "We’re very excited about the forthcoming funride season. We are fine-tuning a completely new leagues/racing idea, offering nearly double the number of events than in the past. The first event is envisaged to take place in October." Glad to hear this and that they have added free red hill time trials to improve seedings and that they are trying to replace the tour of Worcestor ASAP due to road works. Well done guys and keep it up! Capricorn, Skubarra, Maniax and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Bob Posted August 18, 2015 Share Red Hill TT? please elaborate This? http://www.pedalpower.org.za/events/pedal-power-association-40/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pure Savage Posted August 18, 2015 Share This? http://www.pedalpower.org.za/events/pedal-power-association-40/ Nope, the TT will be done on a Sunday on red hill only. You just rock up with your chip, hammer red hill and hope it improves your seeding. No money no entry, rock up and ride. Hairy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icycling Posted August 18, 2015 Share Aah - Mr Negativity is in the house - welcome back Not that negative - i go race on the track tonight - but stil would like to see some road racing! Not sure if a red Hill TT is quite the thing I personally am after but after doing the out of cat TDF climbs in the Alps and Pyrenees 2015 - maybe just maybe I can get over Red Hill.

Rumour has it, the more red hill TT's you do the better your luck will be in the random ballot for cycle tour entries. *As you would be a PPA member* T-Bob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
