Nakoota Posted May 19, 2019 Share Did a final long training ride this weekend. Rand Water near Rietvlei to the Vaal Marina with a 24km extension in Mpumalanga to make the ride longer. After 112.8km and 5:06 in the saddle on mostly gravel farm roads I can't say I'm looking forward to an extra 55km on top of that next weekend.

coppi Posted May 19, 2019 Share I also did 120 km, but with 1500m elevation.......hopefully the longer distance with half the climbing should be better Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/182107-race-to-the-sun-advendurance-drops-the-ball-twice/page/3/#findComment-3504221 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MudLark Posted May 19, 2019 Share Ja. First rides this weekend after 6 weeks of flu. I wonder if I'm even going to make the 100km mark. Eish. Very tempted to just bail...

MudLark Posted May 20, 2019 Share I've written to the race organisers about the shuttles. Will post here when (if?) I get a reply.

MudLark Posted May 21, 2019 Share I asked them to confirm whether the shuttle will still be running and whether there would be space to book a friend of mine on the shuttle. I didn't receive a direct answer to the first question but I did receive an answer to the latter, being told that there is still space available and that I can still book. From this I infer that it is clear that the shuttle will still be running. I hope that this helps.

Edition 507 Posted May 22, 2019 Share Going to tackle this on a full rigid single speed MTB with a 32-15. Not sure if this is out of bravado or stupidity. Probably both!
