Jewbacca Posted August 26, 2018 Share There is no cut-off time. Final guy came at around 7:30 last year.Yeah but he started late and rode in Veldskoens and had a TopSport Helmet from the 80's. It is really selfish to go there entirely unprepared and then spend that amount of time out there. The water points, the sweeps, the medics and other volunteers all have to stay out there for you. It's not the end of the world but it's also not rad. Be lekker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delarey Posted August 28, 2018 Share Looks like the weather is also going to play along. Some rain mid next week but race day will be perfect. Let’s hope it stays like that. LeoKnight 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Links MTB Posted September 4, 2018 Share Really looking forward to the race. Did it 2 years ago and it was awesome! Am however becoming somewhat concerned about the weather. Saturday seems ok, but my app now shows rain Friday too where previously it was only showing rain for Wednesday. Do anyone perhaps know how well those trails drain?

Matchstix Posted September 6, 2018 Share Depends how luxurious you want to stay . . But would start with bike and gear. They supply wood and braai. Just your own grid. And can buy food as well according to the mail. R75 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chingy182 Posted September 6, 2018 Share Bring cash. I got caught with my pants down last year hoping there would be card facilities available after I realised I didn't have enough money for a post ride beer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chingy182 Posted September 6, 2018 Share Any updates on the weather conditions and the surface situation would be greatly appreciated. I would imagine a wet and slippery trail can be quite tricky (read: EXTREMELY dangerous) with all those rocks, etc. there Links MTB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
