They also scan the chip, to verify details and to see if it actually works.

You do know that some of those chips are only used once a year.... :whistling:  :ph34r:

With the state of road racing in the Western Cape that happens to be quite a few of us now.

I have never done a CTCT in the rain. should be fun at the back. 

Last time was 1987. So you're not in a club of 1 there.

Hello, anyone have a spare entry for the junior 4.2 tour... I mixed up "entry" and "registration" and thought I can just walk into Canal Walk - no luck, and my son is all excited... #dadfail :-(

It is possible.

Early days, but it looks like a near perfect day in the making

YR says moderate breeze. Here's hoping!

The nice thing about early forecasts is that there are so many to choose from, and they change so quickly.  If you prefer heat, windguru now promises 30 degrees.  If you prefer a fresh south-easter, yr.no has you covered.

No use talking about the wind now. Wait till 6am on A-day, and even then talk doesn't help. All you can do, is to ride smart on the day!

 

Don't get caught alone in dead mans land between bunches

Stick with your bunch at all costs, take a turn at the front when you can

If you do get dropped, wait for the next bunch, don't fight it alone

Stay in the front 25% of your bunch where it is safer

Beware sudden side gusts, don't overlap wheels, don't panic

If you have reckless/stupid/noob riders around you, get away from them

Fight for your spot in the protected part of the bunch, don't get pushed out

Stay away from the windward side of the bunch

If in a small group or alone, hug the protected gutter

Mostly, wheelsuck all you can without being a parasite
