Anyone else having problems with seeding queries? I've been waiting for a week and I've had no response?

I cant even submit a seeding query

 

 

maybe its because I didn;t fill in my medical questionnaire

If you are looking for your start time, search your name in racetec.co.za

 

If you are wondering how long it will take probably around 4-5 hours. Depending on weather and the rest of the group.

 

looking for group top finish time

hoping for a 3:20-3:30 but need a decent group....so it's a wait and see thing

paying for my sins of not doing events in recent years

 

i rode a 3:21 at 99er from P group

Hmmm, I think if you are early into your start chute and the wind is not ridiculous, a 3:40 could be possible, if you get a great group together 3:30. I think that seeding is similar to a R or S seeding from 2014.

Last year the winds were active especially around Woodstock. The next day it was calm! 

This is the case every year. It's how I know for sure this global warming and changing weather patterns talk is a load of bull

Also in 2A from vets last year.  Haven't done any seeding rides this year hoping for some strong guys to work together to do a decent time.

Don't know what time is possible from this group but going for a 3:15 on the mtb, what is a decent time for you?

I did 3h26 on a 26er MTB with slicks in 2007 starting in S group, so you must be in with a chance...

Despite the promises, a week probably the minimum.  One previous year I submitted a query and I ended up waiting 3 weeks.   Then I got an email the day before the race telling me that my query had been rejected.  By that stage I'd already been to the expo to collect my number.

Reading this thread gives me butterflies in my stomach. It's almost time to put my bike on the plane and fly down. Can't freaking wait.

Don't know why you aren't here already. Oaks are out in full force every morning hitting chappies and suikerbossie!

Rub it in, why don't you? I'm too scared to go to bed at night. What if I don't wake up in time for my start chute?

I believe quite a few people getting emails today to say they in. These are guys that have ridden the tour about twice so far.

 

I got the email this morning - just a pity I sold my road bike.  I only used it for Die Burger (seeding) and the Argus.

 

My mate also got the email and he has never done the Argus before.
