Okay time, but a bad group result - got dropped on the race track.

 

Quick recovery and then off for another lap.

Ecstatic with a sub-3h from F, previous two years were 4h20 and 4h08,so never really expected a sub-3.

 

Nice safe riding by the batches. Event organization was top class. Really enjoyed the event.

Great improvement in time well done!

Thought they were taking the speed bumps out of Steyn city?

They did feel much less severe to be fair

I'm sure I remember speed bumps, cattle grids and booms when I rode through there last year!

 

Followed by a mother of a hill up to the finish.

Lekker day out. The new route feels a lot faster, curious to hear from everyone else.

 

Now it's beer time.

More climb this year according to gps. Time bout the same. Not sure it is faster but conditions early morning were good

Unfortunately the hill was still there

I remember that people were talking to each other on and off for the whole route - but when we got to that last hill nobody was saying a word!  It was just a grind.

 

Enjoyed it though.
