Telkom 947 Cycle Challenge - #CC2017

[Frosty]

Training starting this weekend.

 

+-10 weeks of solid training should do the trick

 

Double Lap is the plan

My 16-week (double peak) plan is now a "I'll start next week plan".

 

Usually Race 4 Victory is the last but last year it stopped with Wilro Lions.

 

Not entirely sure what will be used this year.

But when seeding 33000 19715 people it is possible to have a few wrong.

According to their website, only 19715 have entered (as of 18:48 today) for far...

Should I enter? It won't be my fastest, nor my slowest. It will be my tenth, excluding double laps and other silly things.

 

I have not entered yet.... And my training is way of target.

Would have to steal one, as these go back at least 8 or 9 years.

I still have not entered   R480 is getting steep.

Done my fair share 13. last few have been VC seeding 

Still thinking about it.

Not at my strongest but should do a sub 3

I have one free entry that I am not using as I have already entered. Send me a mail on technical@depmanufacturing.co.za and I will send you the necessary info. Entries close tomorrow so be quick.

 

And its gone in less than 30 minutes. The hubber prowlers are sharp today

I was lucky enough to win an entry for the CC_2017 through a competition from one of the event sponsors, The AA. Thanks a lot to them!  

 

Just completed my entry process and it was awesome to see the message that the entry has been paid for by the voucher code, and my checkout basket was 0.00. 

 

After I entered I saw: 

Entries to date: 22140

What was the amount of entrants last year roundabout?

Plenty. I don't think it sold out.

For the guys doing it on a SS, what gear ratio will you be running?

 

Also will you be putting slicks on the MTB or just ride with your normal tyres?

[Long Wheel Base]

What was the amount of entrants last year roundabout?

Not sure but you would be able to see how many finished on your racetec results. Probably add 4k? to that. Not sure what the average is for DNF and DNS on events like this.

Giant Yukon 26" (17kg) with full noblies 2:45

 

Will slicks help?  For sure. 

What is your aim?  Just to have fun?  Keep the normal tyres and take the R500 odd and stick the mrs for lunch somewhere.  Double fun!
