.....and making predictions about expected wind conditions months in advance.

 

Or speculating what will be in the goodie bag and whether it is shitty or not. . .

Or speculating what will be in the goodie bag and whether it is shitty or not. . . 

Oh, yes, but personally I gave up speculating about the goodie bag when I figured out, about a decade ago, that it was carefully designed to gradually get worse.

Ek wil nou nie negatief wees nie, maar wat stop dieselfde mense om weer die paaie te blok? Hulle weet nou wat om te doen om reaksie/aandag te kry! Ek hoop die organiseerders het 'n alternatiewe roete- maar dan sal dit nie meer die Argus wees nie, sal dit! Ek glo mense ry die Argus omdat hulle die "regte" Argus roete wil ry, nie om ewe skielik 'n verkorte roete of 'n ompad te ry nie!

[Mr X]

JEEZ, the way you guys like to moan I'd hate to see what happens if it ever rains again on Argus Sunday (was that '87 or '88). It's almost like whining about the entry process is part and parcel of the whole race experience. 

 

I would rather like to see that, if it rains on Argus Sunday 2018 it will be the biggest happiness ever in SA, for Argus Sunday will be after DayZero.

I don't care about the goodie bag, I just wanna ride.

Nothing can stop them if they really determined and nobody knows if they will try again. Thats life. So if it worries you a lot don't risk entering

The PHP error? If so, then yes.

+1, if this race is cancelled again due to any reason, it will be my last attempt. I know that any race anywhere can get cancelled for any reason, but coming from Gauteng the risk is not worth the cost.

 

there is enough races in Gauteng from now till April. None of them gets anywhere close to the CTCT, but I won't loose 15k if it gets cancelled.

 

..... and this is my thought exactly.    Sadly I am not going to enter this year.

If they are able to control the rioting crowd ?

(something that I doubt, because now that they have seen that it worked, they will just do it again)

I will probably be back in 2019.

The investment coming from Gauteng is not worth the risk.

The organisers are keeping the cost the same in 2018 because of what happened,

but this does not even begin to come close to the real issue.

Did you receive a MAIL approval?

[HBO]

Is the general entry on a ballot system again? From the mail I received I concluded that it's a "first come, first serve" basis.
