Runbikeswim Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 any one know what it looks like after the rain, muddy or okish?
s14phoenix Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 IT is not called MODDERfontein for nothing With the rain and the amount of traffic it generally gets some sections get super muddy. Just in case I am going in older kit. that black sticky mud they have there is a pain to get out. Well that's what my wife says
Synthet1c Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Yes I agree, poor form lads! Not sure what has happened to saseeding/organisers, but not letting the 1000+ rides know what times to arrive will just cause unnecessary chaos!
s14phoenix Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 Also there is other problems - my number is not the same as my saseeding number so now after speaking to saseeding I got to go and get the correct number linked on my entry the morning of the event otherwise it wont go against my seeding and I probably wont get my results.

Just checked now and luckily it is.

LONE TWO Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 At this rate I might aswell get there 5:30 and just wait. Poor form indeed by the organisers

Long Wheel Base Posted January 22, 2016 Author Posted January 22, 2016 What time are you guys startingThere's park run traffic there too from 7am,. It's going to be crazy busy.Have fun... Been wet this side of the world.I'm doing the 50km and due to only racing road last year i'm in group B and am off at 07h05. I'm going to ride there, Its only a few km from edenglen. Yes park run starts at 08h00 so will be chaos. My wife is going to meet me there afterwards with the baby and we will attempt breakfast if there is space.
skipperw Posted January 22, 2016 Posted January 22, 2016 1200 people racing a quick 50kms on single track...minimal overtaking room. I suspect this is going to be a congested race.

Be quicker I'm sure.Have a good one
