How early do you go?

I've been getting scorched every weekend for cycling too late.

We’re leaving at 05:00, but riding 50km first so we get there about 6:45, then a full lap and another 36km home... #malutiD90 training

Words of warning - 

 

3 "significant" climbs - The hill out the parking lot gets more difficult as you near the top. DO NOT start too quickly. 

Hill #2 - the easiest of the lot, but by no means easy

Hill #3 - doozy. 

Hydrate.

Be weary of motorists. Birders don't give two ****s.

Unless you love descents, just be very careful, okes have come short on many occasions.

Take it easy. Can't set a PB on your first try!

Gates only open at 7 but people start queuing (?) from 6 (this is the front entrance). Our club as Frosty states is heading through on Saturday morning but starting from the back entrance. 

Good luck, and enjoy. Give some feedback!

​SBR was a great self inflicted suffer/training session will definitely be a regular!
