Aye. Your goggles might be taking the flight to the front when you turn at Smits. That is if those snowflakes that controls the race allows us to ride when there is a bit of a breeze.

I think it will only count for your seeding for the 2020 ctct

I was worried about that... 

PPA website just says that ALL PPA events will count significantly toward your CTCT seeding.

 

No further mention of seeding event cut-offs prior to ctct.

if it means anything,

 

Seeding has already been sent out, so the Tour PPA would probably not count, however in the past its known that most of the ppa events, even the ones that are seeding events count for argurst seeding.

 

i stand to be corrected, last rode argurst in 2016 so it might've changed

Anyone entering their little ones in the junior cycle tour. 

 

It was a lot of waiting around in the hot sun and my youngster got over it before we started. 

 

Maybe if we do the 4/7km he would enjoy it compared to the mad park run with a million bikes which was last years 1.3km vibe.

The 1.3km one is chaos yes, my kids enjoyed the 4km one much more, obviously they & everyone around them are a bit older by then which helps.

both daughters are entered

the 4yr old on the 1.3km (sending her with her mum so ok for chaos :) ) and i'll take the 7yr old on the 7km.

 

My daughters are the same age but my 7 year old is doing the 4km ride. 

 

Anyone else think this event is Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay overpriced, or is it just cheapskate me?

Does this mean the seeding system is biased?

This makes me feel like I have to smash myself on Sundays Tour de PPA when I intended just mooching along.

 

You and the lady Merida making an appearance?

 

 

PPA's reply on facebook:  PPA members will be re-seeded before numbers are printed.
