Nowhere to hide on the 947 route?

I think I counted 3 sets of timing mats besides the start and finish ....

Difficult to cheat if that was your goal/plan .

Is there any chance of getting a Hub A-team together? I would love to see what its like to work in an organised group.

If an "A-team" does get together, I'm sure there will be 5-6 of my club members that are also racing many A batch races next year.

 

I'm concentrating more on VB (40-49), but might make an appearance from time to time.

Also keen for an A Team, R4S perhaps?

Only 4-5, Peter Parker will be at back, wheel sucking.

Awesome!! 

So guys in for A-Team

 

Spoke101 + 2

RyanAw

Gerald + 4/5

HBO

 

12 guys working at the front for a minute each.

1 minute effort

11 minute recovery

 

5 minutes of effort every hour.

 

This could be the start of something legendary.

 

Thoughts on organisation?

Meet and greet?

Before we do anything, we need some bikehub team kit

[Rudi Pollard]

This sounds like an awesome idea!!!

 

I hang on to the A bunch until the surge up witkoppen where I lost contact. I put in a massive effort up Malibongwe and Cedar and caught a few guys that broke away through Steyn City.

 

I eventually came in in 2h32

I like the way you think!!

But, will non-team hubbers be able to buy the kit with or without sponsors logos?

[Underachiever]

Thanks for the tips..

I did realise this year I have not done many hills, and probably why I suffered on the climbs..

 

Only reason for cutting down was, I was feeling burnt out and was not recovering well..

Been training majority on my own which makes sense why I can't stick when there are surges in the group..

 

Ah well, back to the drawing board, and better training for 2017 I guess..

Disagree with you.  I train 99.9% of the time alone.  If you add a few surges (intervals) in your training you should be fine.

We will get a black version with discreet logos for those who want to shout at cars, skip lights etc.

[Nettie R]

Also is it just me or were there less people supporting than usual?

More people out and about this year than previous years especially on witkoppen.

You mean "The BikeHub A-Team" kit.

We can go round saving lone riders and pulling back evil attacks everywhere.[emoji23] [emoji23] [emoji23]
