Duane_Bosch Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 Suikerbossie is the most mythical of all climbs. It's name is whispered in awed tones among greats like Monte Zoncolan, Alp d Huez, Monte Grappa and Ventoux. It's aptly named the Beast of the South No not really. It's only difficult because when you get to it you'll have 80km in your legs. Jase619, ChrisF, DJR and 1 other 4
Jase619 Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 How does suikerbossie en chappies compare to Hekpoort Pass (from the northern side) and / or Klapperkop in PTA? No comparison when it comes to the views. Not so much Suikerbossie, that's more to watch everyone suffering, but Chappies Capricorn, Long Wheel Base, DJR and 1 other 4

Stiggy Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 No comparison when it comes to the views. Not so much Suikerbossie, that's more to watch everyone suffering, but Chappies Suikerbossie is a constant climb. Maybe something similar to van der Bijl Ave in Sunninghill?
DieselnDust Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 Life is pretty good when the closest hill to do intervals on is Chappies. that'll be Ou kapseweg and the Silvermine for me. Haven't had my arm twisted to go elsewhere yet. holding thumbs while I can DJR, Duane_Bosch, eddy and 1 other 4

lechatnoir Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 80km in your legs and going at about 30km/hr up 7% gradient.. do that, and you'd better have your sprint dialed to make a fist of it, come Greenpoint Duane_Bosch and DieselnDust 2
The Ouzo Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 do that, and you'd better have your sprint dialed to make a fist of it, come GreenpointI cant even do that in an Avis rental Quagga 1
Duane_Bosch Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 (edited) do that, and you'd better have your sprint dialed to make a fist of it, come GreenpointDieselinDust is either Sauser or Darren Lill cos those are the only 2 people who can claim 30k+ up there. 7kph faster than Daryl Impey. That's impressive. Edited January 22, 2020 by Duane_Bosch
Shebeen Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 We bought a beach house in 94 in Scarborough and that's where holidays and Argus's were spent from then onI'm guessing this is being viewed in hindsight as a brilliant incessant!
Shebeen Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 Loads and loads of entries for sale in classifieds (which is a bit odd as you still need to substitute and us but sold it yet)
Spinnekop Posted January 22, 2020 Posted January 22, 2020 I mean come on, look at this view. Love this race.CT55453.jpgWhen I see this pic and remember the vibe.........you have to consider doing it again.The admin is sadly just too much these days. What a wonderful ride. Long Wheel Base 1
