Shebeen Posted June 26, 2017 Share This question might well have been asked last year, couldn't find it. How do the regulations work for this race?It is a CSA sanctioned race, so does it default to UCI regulations.I know they're not trying to make it complicated with rules, but by having UCI means it can't be simple?   eg. from the website - https://mtb.themunga.com/how/rules so a mtb is fine, a CX bike is fine. a gravel grinder which is not specifically either?Riders may use any type of mountain bicycle provided it is in good working order and race ready prior to the start of the Race. Riders may not use a tandem mountain bicycle. Riders may use a cyclo-cross bicycle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vetseun Posted July 8, 2017 Share All is on target.Did my own Bloem Mini Munga last Saturday. 6 hours @ 123km.Today and tomorrow 4 - 5 hours.Next Saturday is 9 hours.Two weeks after that the ugly 12 hour ride. Planning on hitting the road at 3 am for the 12 hours. Just a touch chilly at that time.

GemmerKat Posted July 8, 2017 Share Curious how many hours one need to spend on training for the Munga just to finish the race ? How long before the race one needs to start ? Edited July 8, 2017 by GemmerK@t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vetseun Posted July 8, 2017 Share Curious how many hours one need to spend on training for the Munga just to finish the race ? How long before the race one needs to start ?I have started now. Right now a 100km is a walk in the park. I am following the Mini Munga rides for some structure.Cranking it up to ride 200 + with no issues.But..... The head needs to be right. All the preparation in the world will not be sufficient if the mind aint right! Sleep monsters are the enemy. I love my 8 hours a night. So my plan of action now is that I drink plenty of water before going to bed. When I wake up for a pee, I force myself to get up and stay awake for an hour or two. Slowly slowly catchy monkey! I really need to complete the Munga. For me and to prove that us humans are much tougher than we ever thought we were.
