[Event] Emperors Palace Classic

Makes sense. What happens when you have a breakaway group up the road in VB and the Main Group gets caught by VC? Is the breakaway group pulled back or allowed to extend their advantage while the Main Group is neutraized?

This has happened before, where the break is allowed to go, but the bunch is told to sit up..... caused groot ***.

hoping to wheelsuck my way to a sub 2:30 from BL :ph34r:

 

Last year we did 2:26 in the lead B group!

Could've went quicker but we cruised for a while after catching the accident in the Elite ladies bunch & missing an accident too near the finish.

 

Going to be racing A this year!

First official Vets start, VC.

Will have to see how it goes

 

Awesome stuff bud!

All the best. You will be fine there

Now that you are old, Come race vets sometime. We did a 2h 11m last year in VA.

 

Hmmm, not strong enough yet for that. And more importantly need more "racing" experience before attempting this. Maybe in a year or so, and when my seeding allows for it to happen.

 

I also haven't done any races since the 947 so this is going to be interesting.

Thanks

Really looking forward to it.

Also slightly smaller group should be better than the 200 in AL.

If you hold on, then I won't be seeing you - I'm in VB.

 

Good luck - my first vets race was an easy Hyper 2 Hyper. I say easy, when compared to what I was used to in A-bunch at the time - I really thought Vets racing was going to be harder. It is harder, but only when you are mixing it up at the front/break, or when fighting for a wheel when in the gutter.

Not received any info about start times or group however ASG site shows I am registered. Spoke to a mate ofvmine and he too has not received any news.

 

Perhaps a delay? System issues?

I forgot I entered, was quite surprised when I got the seeding SMS. Hardly done any riding so need to decide if I want to HTFU and go suffer.

According to the SMS:

 

The Convention Centre at Emperors.

 

19 - 22 Apr between 10:00 and16:00.

Following the "fun" of the CTCT, the wind seems to be non-existent come Sunday.

 

Fair to say it is going to be a chilly-bordering-on-cold race for all starters.

just had a look at the weather now, all looks good with the wind. Some arm warmers may be needed...

As a local (so to speak) and an eternal optimist, the weather is looking good - but... it can change. Better to worry about the weather from Friday onwards.
