karnuffel Posted September 18, 2019 Share Looking forward to the race this weekend! Just to check, will racetec be at the venue on Saturday morning before the race? I might need a new chip after putting mine in a super safe, epicly logical place (that I still need to discover again....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pieter-za Posted September 18, 2019 Share I have never done this one on a bike, only on my legs a couple of times. It is a net downhill but Bugger's and Varaday Hiill could be a bit 'exhausting'. I am taking a family member on her first cycle event and we are planning on a ~2:30 to 2:45 on our MTB's. (OK make that 3:00 if we need to walk Varaday's) I am sure you will be OK but welcome to tag along if you are also in the 8:30 group What is this race like ? Is the 50 suitable as a first race for a person who took up riding this year ? Edited September 18, 2019 by Pieter-za Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddy Posted September 18, 2019 Share oh, I now notice it is a point to point race whch will pose logistical challenges which we may not be able to overcome. How do people get back to their cars ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pieter-za Posted September 18, 2019 Share oh, I now notice it is a point to point race whch will pose logistical challenges which we may not be able to overcome. How do people get back to their cars ?R100 for return ticket with bus and trailer. (Rather confirm with organiser if tickets will be available on Sat.) Alternatively if you are taking supporters along they can enjoy the day at F.E. Resorts, Loskop for R35 pp. Just make sure they get on the road before the road closure. (<7:00 according to Larry's post above) Edited September 18, 2019 by Pieter-za Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddy Posted September 18, 2019 Share Is there anyone who is prepared to drive my car from the start to the finish ? There may be a little something in it for them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karnuffel Posted September 19, 2019 Share Is there anyone who is prepared to drive my car from the start to the finish ? There may be a little something in it for them...I roped my mother in law in to drop us off at the start and then take the car back to loskop... I think it would have been great if there was a bus from loskop to the start, but then again, I dont know whether I like the idea of my bike on one of those trailers....
