Long Wheel Base Posted September 5, 2016 Share 2015 route. https://www.strava.com/segments/10462006Most of us on that top 10 list got DQ'd last year. VA had a flier despite being told half way we where done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Wheel Base Posted September 5, 2016 Share Only 220m of climbing?Yes its flat, Not sure its that flat but last year the wind was quite strong at one stage and we where strung out across the road and that's how we got the DQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceCreamMan Posted September 5, 2016 Share Only 220m of climbing? My strava chart says 673 metres of climbing. Still not a lot but more than 220. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veebee Posted September 5, 2016 Share Only 220m of climbing? you have to open an activity for it to show the proper elevation.I checked a few and it ranges between 600-700m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vetplant Posted September 5, 2016 Share 2015 route. https://www.strava.com/segments/10462006Thanks. I tried to create my own route on Strava from the Route Description for the race but for some odd reason Strava does not want to display the Bloemendal road section, strange... I'll download the 2015 route, should be pretty much the same as this year, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikey Posted September 5, 2016 Share Yes its flat, Not sure its that flat but last year the wind was quite strong at one stage and we where strung out across the road and that's how we got the DQ.its always windy round here. Yesterday was a bit rough .... Thankfully caught 3 guys on the old Vereeniging road. Certainly eased the wind for a 20min. I'm in for Sunday ????.... Going to be fast . Hope I can hang on ????

Vetplant Posted September 5, 2016 Share 2015 route. https://www.strava.com/segments/10462006I feel like a serious Noob right now... can't seem to find a way to export the segment? Want a GPX file or similar to upload to my Garmin. Any advice? Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BouncingBrain Posted September 5, 2016 Share Second time for me.. And first race after injury..Aish flat stages are so tough being a lightweight.I think I'd drop down a start group or two and work with a nice paced group..When do we get seeding..

AryM Posted September 5, 2016 Share Seeding will be out Tuesday/ Wednesday probably before Number Collection.Lots of wind in the 2nd half of the race too... But still a fast race.See you all on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
