Danny27 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Good day. Just wondered if anyone has had any experience of the Cape Epic waiting list and what the chances are of actually getting an entry when you are on the waiting list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie Stewart Posted July 7, 2017 Share Seeing as it's Friday, what about the fact that Val de Vie is now the official finish, at least for the next 5 years? I watched the finish on tv last year, and I must admit that I found it immensely boring? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably nothing to do viewer excitement, and all just money and marketing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wonder the only skills you need to 'conquer' the toughest race is a fat wallet and some skills to stay seated on your mtb for extended periods. I am not convinced about the 'epicness' of the epic any longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of climbing yes but other that that a dirt road dash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
