Long Wheel Base Posted February 9, 2017 Share Uber!!Could end up paying for 3 entries then if they apply a "ARGUS" surcharge. Pure Savage 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J∆kk∆ls Posted February 9, 2017 Share Just got my first email to ride twice, yet I sold my entry yesterday One day when I am back in the country I'll do it with pleasure. For those that got theirs and are able to do it, live to the fullest! Mikejk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rouxenator Posted February 9, 2017 Share Uber!!Nah, I was fine last year after the double argus + meal with a beer at the company tent. It's only 50km back to my home in Stellenbosch anyway. The real issue for me is the money. Not the price, that is reasonable, the problem is my budget Edited February 9, 2017 by Rouxenator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dev null Posted February 9, 2017 Share Sucks that it cost so much. I am sure my boy would love to ride with his mum and younger boet when they start just before 10. My budget is already fubar. WP XCO series entry, plus 2 actual races this month, plus CSA Racing Licence, plus new set of MTB brake pads. And that just for one rider in the family. Oh, in there also a kit from Pure Savage, but mom insisted and is paying, all so that her son looks like a pro rider when he starts in 1J.

Its great training for the DC, which is the main event of 2017! Lekker vibe, people give you free food and booze, you can also get a little rub from the physios!

Skubarra Posted February 9, 2017 Share How vibey is the second lap? Worth the extra moolah? Also got an invite for the first time and considering it... I think it is even more fun if you can hook up with someone you know and make a proper social ride out of it. Was a bit caught by surprise how tired you are, especially the first quarter into the 2nd lap as you don't exactly pace yourself doing the 1st lap.... To the people that are super proud of their Sub whatever on the 2nd lap - sorry but you totally missed the point of a 2nd lap. Sad. dev null and Cookie88 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mongoose! Posted February 9, 2017 Share How vibey is the second lap? Worth the extra moolah? Also got an invite for the first time and considering it... Did it last year for the first time - was really great - for sure doing it again this year. I sat on the wheels of three guys wearing Pure Savage kit (if I remembered correctly) most of the way - they were just going a lekker pace Pure Savage and Cookie88 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karman de Lange Posted February 9, 2017 Share How vibey is the second lap? Worth the extra moolah? Also got an invite for the first time and considering it... You have to do it at least once ..

dev null Posted February 9, 2017 Share Maybe get my boy to take off his timing chip and then wrap it in foil? Then they can't nail him for not paying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carbon29er Posted February 9, 2017 Share Maybe get my boy to take off his timing chip and then wrap it in foil? Then they can't nail him for not paying. And then show him the video of that bike shop break and enter and pilfer while you are about it. Then the whole family can ride new bikes!

Jase619 Posted February 11, 2017 Share So exactly 4 weeks till we all descend on Cape Town!!! Excited is an understatement, granted it's only my 2nd CTCT, but can't wait!!! Wannabe, carbon29er and Belgian biker 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maila Posted February 11, 2017 Share Was invited to ride it twice, and Would've been great to do it, but 3 CtCt race entry fees in one month is a bit much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
