Eugene Oppelt Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 The initial contract is apparently for two years. So next year should happen unless something changes there. I reckon all parties involved will be looking at this past event before further discussions. Your thoughts, Nick? Crowd attendance rocked.Facilities rocked.Public safety rocked.Distance to airport rocked.Course was stunning and beautiful. My due diligence done. NelAndre, Donovan Le Cok, Adrian Fogg and 1 other 4

The Bull Shark Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 A few things they need to look at for next time:- 1. To little crowd control. People were crossing the track everywhere, and mostly because there were not enough controlled crossing points. 2. The queues at the food stalls were way too long. The Spur tent at the rock garden ran out of food already during the women's race. 3. Temporary viewing stands at the rock garden and Pick Up Sticks would allow more spectators to view the action.

Jewbacca Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 (edited) I cannot fault the race at all. I still think the 'technical sections' are too short to really make passing at the front end viable. Guys gain very little time between the A and B line in a shoot out. Some of the climbs need to be longer as well... That said it raced fast and really exciting so nothing too much to point fingers at. Having been really lucky to watch the 1st few races from the VIP areas and the main event in the feed/tech zone, I cannot fault the set up and organization at all. It seemed superb... But that may just be the free snacks talking! What a day and so proud to have been a part of it. Next year is already penned in on the event calendar with indelible marker.. the gold one!

WrightJnr Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Proper FOMO that I couldn't be there watching this on TV. Amazing racing all around. I suppose Nino had to throw one race before he got accused I was there. Best day ever!! Your FOMO was legit. Patchelicious, Hairy, MBMtbGirl and 1 other 4
