Gonduir Posted August 15, 2016 Share With the same water stops and the same amount of papers in the goodie bag Seems rather expensive for me this year. Last year i said to myself that i wouldn't enter because it was super expensive, this year its even more crazy. Clinton H 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThaStig Posted August 15, 2016 Share Is it only me, but I think the PPA misrepresented the procedure when requesting our membership renewal."PPA MEMBERSHIP RENEWALS 2015-2016 Your PPA membership fees are due on 1 July 2015. Paid-up PPA members will again be given the chance to enter the 2016 Cape Town Cycle Tour before entries open for the general public. Make sure you are on the ‘paid-up PPA members’ database’ and pay your subs during July to get your invite to enter the 2016 Cycle Tour early.It did not mention anything about club 21 or more than 21 races.I would like comment please Karman de Lange and Geronimo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boerklong Posted August 15, 2016 Share The problem is that if you dont pay R510 someone else will. It's too expensive, but I will probably end up paying that. Long Wheel Base 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pure Savage Posted August 15, 2016 Share Its only R480 for PPA riders What a deal. And there is beer at the end. Wannabe and Edge540 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They spend money on MTB events consistently and not nearly enough money on ROAD funrides, thus the massive drop off of road funrides and ZERO leagues for the past year. Well that my opinion and thus I did not renew my PPA membership this year after been a member for 30 plus years. Geronimo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the PPA One tonner was only R150 for PPA members, when last did you see that value I Wannabe and DJR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icycling Posted August 15, 2016 Share Well the PPA One tonner was only R150 for PPA members, when last did you see that value II only put the Cape Town Cycle tour entry in my one thread to show NO membership discount. I think R510 for full closed road round he Cape Town cycle tour route is very well priced. Other events round the world of this nature would attached a far higher price tag. To pay R150 for a coke on non closed roads and been told by Think bike marshals for 160km to to stay left - I can go ride my bike alone and have lunch!!

porqui Posted August 15, 2016 Share You have to wonder if this is still worth it You don't have to wonder. It is not worth it. Less of everything - even straw bales.
