Andrew_Smith Posted December 1, 2017 Posted December 1, 2017 Feel sorry for Jean Biermans, tough decision but the right one. Still a MASSIVE achievement just finishing the race nevertheless. MM is on fire, he is a machine. Nice bike that he rides. Also, he only carries one bottle and a Camelback.
milky4130 Posted December 1, 2017 Posted December 1, 2017 The last climb at 1050kms is only 300m or so .... don't think he will even notice it !! He is home and dry barring a mechanical or crash....only 300m you say? Thats Bain Kloof Pass, with 1000km in the legs, drained body, that will feel like Everest, P.s. the profile doesnt do that climb justice, Its long. Tatt and shaper 2

shaper Posted December 1, 2017 Posted December 1, 2017 Is MM in the signal dead zone, not been updated for 28 mins? Thought they would have sorted that after last year... Gen 1

milky4130 Posted December 1, 2017 Posted December 1, 2017 Is MM in the signal dead zone, not been updated for 28 mins? Thought they would have sorted that after last year...must be the mountains getting in the way perhaps?
mrcg Posted December 1, 2017 Posted December 1, 2017 Tracker hasn't reported for 18min....so might be an error. You never know.Hopefully he's on the right track....or has noticed it. Any extra meters are too much!!Good luck guys and gals Just as I say that.....looks like he's on the wrong road! S**t
shaper Posted December 1, 2017 Posted December 1, 2017 (edited) must be the mountains getting in the way perhaps?It was the same last year with the mountains. Whilst not much of a big deal with the front runners... when we moved to watching the back markers and the looming cut-off time, often they would go awol in the dead zone and we would not get a proper update until they had passed the finish line.... it was frustrating!!

Slowbee Posted December 1, 2017 Author Posted December 1, 2017 surely Colins GPS must be telling him he is on wrong road ?
dirtypot Posted December 1, 2017 Posted December 1, 2017 Freek Van Tonder has put the hammer down!! Him and JD left Sutherland at the same time, but there's now almost 20km between them and he's right on the heels of Sthembiso!
TrailWarrior Posted December 1, 2017 Posted December 1, 2017 Looks like DG & Benkie are playing tit for tat. cat & mouse......
