Escapee.. Posted April 11, 2018 Posted April 11, 2018 They are all the same Just starting on different daysTrail starts the Tuesday and finishes the ThursdayAdventure starts the Wednesday and finishes the FridayRace starts the Thursday and finishes the Saturday Do it!!!! Its a great experience
Balooba Posted April 11, 2018 Author Posted April 11, 2018 Thank you kindly. Worried if I entered the "race" I would be left behind I want to do it on my Momsen hard tail...... that will probably give me the incentive to buy a duel susp.

Skubarra Posted April 11, 2018 Posted April 11, 2018 Wow, Race and Trail entries still open... Remember the first year I did it in 2013 they opened up the Trail for the first time, basically filling all the entries from the waiting list from the other 2.

First day you will start in a batch according to your seeding. Day 2 and 3 you will start depending on what time you did the previous day. You dont have anything to worry about, hardtail is also
Stretch Posted April 11, 2018 Posted April 11, 2018 They are all the same Just starting on different daysTrail starts the Tuesday and finishes the ThursdayAdventure starts the Wednesday and finishes the FridayRace starts the Thursday and finishes the Saturday Do it!!!! Its a great experienceNot really the same... The race is a lot more "serious" than the rest.. And a lot more pretentious. The adventure is the most chilled... Well that's how it used to be anyway. I did the first trail and 2 races...I much preferred the race despite all the showing off of bikes
Balooba Posted April 11, 2018 Author Posted April 11, 2018 BIG question... if I pull the trigger and enter, will I be able to make it fitness wise??? I do between 40-60km on weekends (all over northern Pretoria). What would I need to do to be kind of ready?

Come to think of it, its three completely different races. Please choose carefully

Day two will be the hardest with loads of climbing. The routes are manicured so you don't have to worry too much about skill level.

Come to think of it, its three completely different races. Please choose carefully I like it relaxed, more for the experience than riding against time. I do not mind the "sweeper" keeping me company. Trail or adventure then???
