Dieter ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 I can finally add myself to the 2017 Cycle Challenge Bike Hub Start Groups Google sheet
Lostee Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 How easy is it to get to the parking venue from Pretoria? It will be my 2nd year doing the event; I just turned 1 as a Gauteng resident. Last year I was still staying in Midrand, now I am a bit further. Even though I drove to the start last year, I think I could have warmed up to the venue... Should I just park in Midrand and just spin to the start or drive? I will also do a 2nd chilled lap, unofficially, like last year and get to know the route.
Lostee Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 2 years ago they just asked me what my times were at previous races and where would I like to start... Not sure if they have become more strict. Maybe to be safe take results with. A year ago, they were actually checking on Racetec. I just did not reseed coz it was pricey.

Saw on Toyota cadence show, about where and how to park. They also said there is an app available that explains it as well if I remember correctly

EvanB Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 Went today did a substitution and reseed in under 10 minutes - very slick

I'm in Midrand and planning on riding to the start, you can join me if you like.Haven't quite decided on the exact time I'm going to leave, but probably 04:00 - 04:30.

I think I might join you, just to warm up a bit.
billygoat0523 Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 okay, so the "final instructions" reckon i should get there 3 hours before my start time? wtf? i don't see myself getting there at 3:35
kraines Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 So Cycle Challenge messed up big time on my starting time and my rather extensive efforts amounted to only a partial remedy. So for me that means s tarting in Z at 8:10, half an hour after I should be. Anyone else starting in Z looking for around 3:40?
