Eish Oom, was hoping to say hi 

We'll bump into each other again on the trails.

How sandy is 'Sandy' when you guys talk about riding next to the river??

 

Contemplating doing either the 37 or the 56 but undecided.

Managed to do ok in the MTB argus which is 40km. how intense is that extra 16km??

You will probably find the 56km easier than CTCT mtb 40km

[milky4130]

which step on the podium will we see you?

bwahaha not a chance Top 10 is my goal at the very least, just too many talented riders out there these days.

[NovakSA]

Roughly how many meters of climbing in the 56km ride?

[LeoKnight]

Roughly how many meters of climbing in the 56km ride?

About 800m

Guys,I might not be looking properly but where will I find starting times for different groups? I'm doing 75km and a buddy the 50km

 

The ppa site just says 7h30...is that applicable to all?

[LeoKnight]

They did not publish the start times just when the 75k is starting and from there the other routes.

 

Think they might have some trouble this year around when the 56km connects with the 75km route.... or do they have different routes back to the finish?

[Gav1]

Thanks LeoKnight???? Not sure about route back to finish but you might be right

[LeoKnight]

The weather seems to play along tomorrow, lets hope there is not further surprises

 

Bike ready for tomorrow, one of the races with the most water points per km I would say.

[NovakSA]

My nerves are finished. 1st race in 4 years. Going to be a sleepless night. Lookng forward to it though.

[ChrisF]

Have a good race day !

What a lekker event. The 56km was awesome, dusty as expected. Looks like every one had a blast today. I will definiately be back in 2019.

I agree

 

You forgot about the sand and some killer climbs

[thisismyotherbike]

I can't praise this race enough! It was simply awesome.

 

Route, scenery, waterpoints, finish area.. all excellent.

 

I'll be back

[LeoKnight]

Did the 75km.. was long day out there but really enjoyed it, third time doing it and always look forward to it (ok maybe not the sand lol)
