Lizzard30 Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 Do anyone know what the average times was per group on the CTCT...want to work out if I will be able to stay with my pack or should I start later by choice...Don't want to chase my pack and then fall out on km 50 for example...
HeyYou Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 I wouldn't worry too much, in groups behind you there will always be wanna be race snakes that will pick you up.
Lizzard30 Posted February 22, 2017 Author Posted February 22, 2017 Starting in 2B for my first CTCT.. Don't know if that is good or bad...
snakedoc Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 Starting in 2B for my first CTCT.. Don't know if that is good or bad... Snaps Not my first Argus but had a look at the times from last year. Times range from 3:02 to 3:16 but I wouldnt read too much into that cause the wind can cause havoc.  Im just gonna try stick with the bunch
shaper Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 Just stay in your batch time, go with the group as best you can and enjoy your day, if you do get dropped it won't be a solo ride, other groups behind usually have groups you can latch onto
Reg Lizard Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 Starting in 2B for my first CTCT.. Don't know if that is good or bad...I started in 2C last year and after my leggs came off at chappies, did a 3h15! Btw we caught 2B last year just before Smitswinkel. Hope it helps Reg

dee_biker Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 Starting in 2B for my first CTCT.. Don't know if that is good or bad... Doing a spot check, if you finish middle of the bunch, based on last year's perfect conditions, you should be able to do a 3:25-ish Argus with a 32+km/h average. If you are a good bunch rider, then you can bargain an average speed of at least +5km/h faster than what you can do on your own. My 2c.
Mamil Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 If I do a 3:25 ish Argus I'll be absolutely insufferable with how much bragging I'll be doing.
billygoat0523 Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 2B ranged from 3:02 all the way to 6:55. Â (there's 6 pages for the group)Â trying hard not to think about how those stragglers ended up in 2B.
Jase619 Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 Go until you blow Same as fake it till you make it?
Lizzard30 Posted March 1, 2017 Author Posted March 1, 2017 3:25 very unlikely for myself.. And hopefully not a 6:55 either...would be over the moon if I can sub 5...
100Tours Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 I'm just gonna try stick with the bunch​ attack from the gun. fixed it.
