City Cycling Athletic Club Posted July 4, 2017 Posted July 4, 2017 if it's not IM then it will be Masi protesting - the *hit stirrers aren't stoopid, they saw what their little protest did before IM went up in flames in March. time for the 'The Alternative to the Argus'
Jase619 Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 So any idea when entries are opening? Been too quiet on The Hub lately, and Friday is just around the corner. . .
Long Wheel Base Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 So any idea when entries are opening? Been too quiet on The Hub lately, and Friday is just around the corner. . .Usually September. Edit: But with a lot of people getting "preferential" entries this year I am not sure how it will work. In the past I used to get to enter a few days before normal entries open up.
Pure Savage Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Since its the rumour season with pro transfers etc, the Cycle tour are probably just getting traffic clearance for the event to end at top of the Glen, then an easy roll down Kloof nek.
Wannabe Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 Don't know why this is even being discussed. I'm not even going to enter the 2018 CTCT.The chances are good to extremely probable that some trumped up "protest action" will prevent it from taking place."They" saw this year just how easy it is to sabotage the route (at multiple points) and will hold the City of Cape Town hostage with this threat. So, to prevent disappointment, I have made peace with the fact that I will end my run of consecutive Argus'es at 14. Was aiming for 21, but alas...... do I need to put it in comic sans?

Jase619 Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 2 Oceans went off without a hitch, The Argust should be OK.Unless there are new issues to 'discuss' And as did numerous other sporting events as well I presume? Negativity will always reign supreme, I personally am very much looking forward to the 40th anniversary 2.0!!!

This year I requested a refund on my double lap entry (was fine for loosing the first lap entry) but it was rejected with some kind of default e mail response. That was the final sign.

Malpiet Posted August 3, 2017 Posted August 3, 2017 If its april i'll go with oceans over argus anyday!!
Jase619 Posted August 4, 2017 Posted August 4, 2017 Won't be in April, Race day confirmed as 10 March 2018.
Dogs Posted August 4, 2017 Posted August 4, 2017 Considering to rather make this our trip down - looks like fun.https://eroicasouthafrica.com/
Shebeen Posted August 22, 2017 Posted August 22, 2017 Next time this race takes place CPT will be on water restriction level 13 which means that only sand is allowed to be drunk during sporting events... a pre emptive strike on the comments on how bad the argus is for water consumption. Sure the race didn't take place but all the tourists came and everything was in place as if it did. I suppose the oke in halfway up suikerbossie who likes to spray cyclists for 6 hours didn't get his tap out for once.
