Hilton. Posted February 3, 2016 Posted February 3, 2016 Guys, I just got my number and start time, but I'm a bit confused. The sms says my number is %235, start at 6:08. Is there a group called %? And if so, which group on the road is that? If that's like group B or something, I think I'll drop down a group or two

Traffic officials will manage this section on race day.The City of Cape Town has repaired pot holes on Van Schoorsdrif Road.

Philadelphia Road is also currently being repaired as part of a Provincial maintenance contract. Cyclists are assured that this section of the route will be ready and safe for cycling conditions on race day.

Very few climbs in the first 2/3's of the race so just wheelsuck and hang on for dear life...
Rouxenator Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Is there somewhere that we can see the actual route for Saturday?

Disylizzy Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 I think this is the route, same as last year.. https://www.strava.com/activities/251364048 Close, we just turn off the R44 earlier than last year.

Rouxenator Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 Thanks, I have done 99er since 2011. Worst for me was the 123km route.

Disylizzy Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 So we miss out the prison climb? Well since we're not going to go past the prison this year, I would think so

Skubarra Posted February 4, 2016 Posted February 4, 2016 woop woop! Was worried about that one, so now I'm wheelsucking right till the Vissershok climb But to be serious, it's actually a pity, probably the only place in the first 90km's where the groups get a chance to split a bit. Especially if we have massive groups caused by earlier "mergers"...
