CC has a Split time calculator that you could use as a guideline. lets you know where you need to be at different time intervals in order to achieve your goals.

It looks like E is the biggest bunch. I will just pretend every person I work with on the day is a fellow hubber!

For the Elites lurking around. What seeding index do you need to have to race in the Elite Category?

 

I got seeded A Batch. But need to make sure before asking for a reseed

Mine is 0.08 if that helps.

To the 8 other hubbers in group G:

I'll be the one furiously clinging to your back wheel.  Let's be friends? 

[Dogs]

If you want to fall back to L and join us you're more than welcome - it's only 10 minutes later

Hi, I am in L and would also assist with the 3:30 which is probably a more realistic goal.  Is there something to get the few hubbers together?

To be honest, we spoke about it (here) and nobody has said anything beyond that.

I'm still keen. I reckon we need to try find a very specific place to meet, a way to identify each other, maybe contact numbers (I think that was the biggest problem with I Team last year, some of us found each other, but there landed up being 2 or 3 groups because we couldn't all find each other)

I bought a entry from a guy who has an index of 24.7 and was seeded in E my index is 18.6. So my question is will they move me up the to a faster group?

What seeding index do the guys in B and C generally have?

Start at P 14 min after L looking to do 3:30 have a friend on board who is a strong bunch rider. He said he will pull the entire P start trough to the M1 (okay he didnt really say that) doesnt mean we cant make him

So have created a Whatsapp group for all starting in Group L at 07h06.  I have invited all but "Silver Rider" and Track Nut" whom I could not find.  

 

The idea is to work together as a group, SHARE workload and hopefully get closer to 03h00 for the day.

 

Please inbox me your cellphone number in order to add you to the group - we will make arrangements for meeting up on the day there.

The more the merrier for the work load.

Wishing all a safe and nice 94.7. Have fun.  Was always for the cycling highlight of the year for me, irrespective of wether I was well prepared or not.  Will be with you guys in spirit.

Hope you're quick enough… 

What time do you guys plan on getting there in order to be in the front of G?

Probably leave my house around 5:30 to get there at 6am... I'm <14km away. Easy ride down a closed Witkoppen and half-closed William Nicol.
