[Event] Absa Cape Epic

Archaic and outdated. I understood this to originate from land owners, but as you mentioned, most of the event uses public routes / currently existing mtb trails and every km is public knowledge due to live tracking. Its novel to get personal messages on the trails, but imo they are missing an opportunity to bring user generated content from the racers to the public. If done correctly it can brighten up a mostly dull broadcast.

Exactly, well said.

Interesting you mention the lack of Spez in the top 10. I somehow don't see droves heading out to buy Bulls or Dales for next year. Spez seems to have captured the market very well for this race.

Dales for sure. The numbers seem to be increasing as they certainly are becoming more obiquitous.
