I don't do "good times " But anything under 3 hours for the short route on the magalies will be good and I recon you can push the 2:30 on the 94.7 with ease . I am talking middle of the field type times here !

Fantastic then that is what I will aim for a 2:40 94.7 MTB race and a 2:40 94.7 Road race - training starts in ernest tomorrow.

Hey Mux, when you and DellBoy going to Zoo farm again?

Not sure - hopefully next weekend, I will get him to give you a shout and come join us - you can teach him how to stay on 2 wheels

If you can do a 2.40 94.7, you'll do a 1.50 MTB challenge. Those are the times I did last year.

My first magalies - I punctured at the start! - had to fix - and started right at the back of the 45km mass start.

 

Worked my way to 99th from the back of about 450 riders - was hectic - a bent small chain ring (after descending down some serious rocks! and bouncing off one of them with my ring (lol)) - almost doing a 360 degree endo on some of the rocky downhill sections. The monster will test ure skill. Its really a great race - its got plenty of climbs ,very soft sand - downhills with rocks for africa. U will have to walk/run at some point of the race. One or two small stream crossings.
