samson99 Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 About 80km/day 42in 38out .... but could bump it up to 60out, will attempt that tomorrow That is very impressive!! I only manage 50km/day
cat-i Posted May 16, 2019 Author Posted May 16, 2019 Is that you in second place? How long are your commutes usually? Mine vary from 25 - 30 km with 210-350m climbing. This challenge has been quite difficult to add the extra needed elevation and distance but a good challenge nonetheless. Doesn't help that the Cape is getting colder. Gauteng is also colder - and a lot darker. It's difficult to ride an extra bit of distance when it's already dark ... my mind's saying it's late, but the watch says there's plenty of time.
EddieV Posted May 16, 2019 Posted May 16, 2019 That is very impressive!! I only manage 50km/day I do get recovery time every month when I have to fly up to the Jhb office, .... but I would much rather commute in Cpt than spend any time in Jhb .... I suffer from terrible ‘FOMO’ when not being able to commute

cat-i Posted May 16, 2019 Author Posted May 16, 2019 I'm sadly out of this challenge as I'll be suffering in my wife's wheel from Thursday to Saturday She's in good form and this could be the first time a podium contender (team) will be featuring the guy holding on to a small back pocket I see you took the win today - congrats!
samson99 Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 I managed a 266.8km and 3497m elevation. But now my legs are vrot!!
cat-i Posted May 17, 2019 Author Posted May 17, 2019 I managed a 266.8km and 3497m elevation. But now my legs are vrot!!Congrats! I still have to do 22.2 and 134m of ascent this afternoon. Legs a lot better than this time previous years - might have somethng to do with the little training ride I did 2 weeks ago
EddieV Posted May 17, 2019 Posted May 17, 2019 Congrats! I still have to do 22.2 and 134m of ascent this afternoon. Legs a lot better than this time previous years - might have somethng to do with the little training ride I did 2 weeks ago Well done guys .... I have 247km thus far but still have my commute home ....Sadly I’m quite far from the elevation target, I couldn’t see it on Endomondo but according to Strava it’s sitting at a lowly 2227m :|
cat-i Posted May 17, 2019 Author Posted May 17, 2019 I looked at Wines2Whales (November) - total distance is 207 ... almost 60 less than Sani2C ... but total ascent is 4320 - 875 more than S2C
cat-i Posted May 17, 2019 Author Posted May 17, 2019 Also got there eventually.269.25 km and 3621 climbing.
