Mate of mine that did a sub also has his.

Did the route yesterday, and that small section under discussion is really horrible.

We were a small group of 6 riders, and nowhere "race pace", but negotiating that section took a fair degree of skill.

If nothing is done to it before race day, I foresee a lot of trouble there.

 

I for one am glad I'm doing it on my MTB this year

You guys notice all the manhole covers are raised and marked as if that's going to help?

Those manhole covers jutting out is just not safe

Another reason why this is such a great race.

They always make sure that everything is perfect, well almost everything. The weather is beyond their control.

Reminds me, we had a couple of Scandinavian visitors here last week. Took them to Worcester on site visit. It was 46C... They almost cried.

[SeaBee]

Sunny Cape Town would PAY to have a view like that!

 

We were at Rhebokskloof yesterday - one dam was just dried mud at the bottom. Not a drop of water.

Oe Brrrrrr

[Mamil]

Really hoping you bring that weather with you ... given the choice of a sub 3 hour argus or a day of serious soaking rain where it's so wet that they call off the ride?

Hopefully we will get a 40kph+ SE blowing on the day.  

 

I need to collect stories to tell my grandkids some day
