GLuvsMtb Posted February 15, 2017 Share Ok?So I go to the events page to enter (presumably that is why you have posted the event here, so that people can enter nice and early), and it seems like entries are not yet open. Am I missing something? Other info that would be quite handy is:Entry feeShuttle fees Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

single track chick Posted December 22, 2017 Share Which races should one ride to get a decent Attakwas seeding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanJan Posted December 22, 2017 Share They take into account your saseeding.co.za results, so that means most of the MTB races that influence your national seeding (National & Trailseeker series). Other Dryland events, UCI points and previous Atta results also weigh in to your general seeding. Just remember that the average rider at the Attakwas is an A-batch rider, so expect to be seeded further back if it is your first time riding it.

Jewbacca Posted December 23, 2017 Share I wouldn't worry that much. Go hard out the blocks and 99% of the race is on jeep track anyway. Larry King 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tunariaan Posted December 23, 2017 Share The above person has done 5 Attas but seeding seem to be getting worse every year. As for myself, Have always done Atta times of 6:30 to 8hoursThis year i have ridden Knysna mtb in a good time, Karoo 2 C in sub 4 and im still in D Blokman and Jewbacca 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcza Posted December 23, 2017 Share Seems like you need a seeding index of mid 30s from SASeeding to get into A. Don't think seeding is that important, plenty of space to overtake. Blokman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
