'Dale Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Also started in B last year, I see from the results I was only a few positions ahead of you... Bonked out from C near the Klipheuwel Silos, got passed by E close to Stellenbosch, unable to even hang onto their wheels for a few seconds ( on the downhill!?!) - was one of my more humbling days on a road bike. This year I will hopefully be a bit fitter & wiser. I cramped up and, like a cheap firecracker and fizzled out near Klipheuwel. Limped home, fighting with my bike. This year, I am as undercooked as sushi after some lung troubles at winter's end.Won't even dare to swing a leg over the saddle this weekend.
Rouxenator Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Also started in B last year, I see from the results I was only a few positions ahead of you...No one finished behind me, because I was 64/64 in group B. To make sure I don't stand a chance this year I will do my racing on the STBB 60km on Saturday. Seeded in E so I'll make my way down to J or there about.
Velouria Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 I am so glad this topic popped up so early in the week! I just checked my results, this will be my 6th one, I have not beaten my 1st one tonner position yet, mostly as we do it as a team vibe I think. Looking forward to this weekend, will be interesting to see how things pan out with the team racing starts. I see your club has hired some big guns for the team racing. Going to be crazy out there! (Although clearly there seems to be a communication problem)

Lostee Posted October 17, 2017 Posted October 17, 2017 Does anyone know someone who won't be doing the race? I will be in Cpt this weekend and would like to do the race.

Pure Savage Posted October 18, 2017 Author Posted October 18, 2017 Good. People are realising why bikes have one saddle and one handle bar.Looks like team entries were sold out in the end. 29 teams, so 1/3 of the race, also know there are plenty teams starting in the seeded groups as well still.
