Vetplant Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 I see they mention a number of things that you need to be able to start, one of them being a number board..? Didn't see anything in my race pack. Is that not only for the MTB crowd?

Mamil Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 I suggest you reevaluate your statements. post apartheid racism. No other way of calling it. Eish just saw footage of fire in Hout Bay. Trust no more loss of lives. Hopefully it does not affect the route tomorrow.  I trust residents dont decide now to protest / block the roads for housing while disrupting the Argus????.

dev null Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 (edited) Let's look at the positives with regards to this wind.  Suikerbossie will be easier, and the heat won't be a problem.  I have forgone any ideals for a PB, so I am just gonna have a chilled ride and enjoy it as much as possible.

Mamil Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 Ja... your hat is safe Moridin. I'm just going to focus on not crashing and watching out for people being blown off course.  Images of paragliding off chappies, pedalling furiously like one of those pre wright brothers flying machines. Next year though .... hat a la mode ... Let's look at the positives with regards to this wind.  Suikerbossie will be easier, and the heat won't be a problem.

Bloukrans Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 I understand the impulse in the community to do this. I just hope it does not happen. I understand the fire brigade was given a hard time by the community members. Let me go sleep and get ready for the wind Mamil 1
Boerklong Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 Just for interest sake. My friends been riding a road bike for 5 weeks now. Will he be fine on it in the wind or should he grab his mtb that hes been riding for a much longer time?
Mamil Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 I found the road bike hugely different in the wind after riding mtb for a fre years. It does misbehave in the wind a lot more. I've had my road bike a few months now and i'm taking her sailing tomorrow. Just for interest sake. My friends been riding a road bike for 5 weeks now.

Being from up north, I think I can deal with the wind better then with the heat. We'll see tomorrow. The part from Smitswinkel to the other side of the peninsula should be quick and fun as well!
BikeLuddite Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 Hoping for the best for the residents of Hout Bay. Â Some advice required pleaseMy friend and I are driving in from Stellenbosch for the race and we are not local to the area - where could we park as we saw only after we left the expo, that we could have potentially got a voucher to park at the stadium? Would appreciate any tips and tricks.
Tesla Posted March 11, 2017 Posted March 11, 2017 Some interesting observations from the cover of that expo magazine... Â
