BaGearA Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 I got A feeling in 2/3 years the Epic is going to start battling to sell entires if more of this comes to light and the qualification system gets to A pro-racer level. but thats none of my business...
Warthog Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Been making this sum in my head: EPIC: R 75 000 for team of two - R 37 500 per person for 8 days/nights = R 4 687,50 pppd S2C: R 13 900 for team of 2 - R 6 950 per person for 3 days/nights = R 2 316,66 pppd QUESTION to okes/ladies who've done both: (I've only done S2C) What makes EPIC charges double?
carbon29er Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Well done guys. I got sucked into reading a second thread on the Epic today after keeping clear the whole event. Doping first. Now food. What's next.
Wannabe Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Grant must be used to the treatment EVERYBODY receives at the J2C. Food and drink as much as you like, and the same for everybody. Served Buffet style, and of restaurant quality. And that at a lot less than your Epic entry fee.
carbon29er Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Snip What makes EPIC charges double?Because they can.
jcza Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Well done guys. I got sucked into reading a second thread on the Epic today after keeping clear the whole event. Doping first. Now food. What's next. Claiming a refund because of shortened stage 2?
Lexx Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Put it on your tax return as a business expense. Taking out a client. Just keep the receipt

The choppers flying around the whole day doesn't come cheap. 2. Someones got to sponsor the food and drink at the hospitality tent. R1800 for a ticket is utterly disgraceful hence why I would never visit it. On another point. I see nothing wrong with a drum full of water. The plastic bottles should not be available. Just think of the amount of unnecessary waste generated. We can all do our part and stop paying for water. There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with tap water.

Headshot Posted March 30, 2017 Author Posted March 30, 2017 First world problems....Kind of like how I felt watching the MTB film festival last night - US and EU guys taking strain on their 3 day bike packing trips and "getting away from city life" ... makes you realize how far their realities are away from many if not most of our fellow SA's .
Skott5 Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Whats the criteria for sitting at the fancy tables ? Invite only ?
coppi Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 First world problems....but in a fast approaching third world...............
carbon29er Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Claiming a refund because of shortened stage 2? Refunds needed for time lost reading Epic stuff where I have successfully NGAF until today. Was stage 2 shortened?
jcza Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Refunds needed for time lost reading Epic stuff where I have successfully NGAF until today. Was stage 2 shortened? Too hot.....I know. Bombshell - Western Cape gets hot in summer.
