DieselnDust Posted October 7, 2019 Share Wasn't it only for this year? think I remember the lottery still applying for the 2018 tour You're right. A bit of google snooping shows that the lottery still applied in 2018. I don't recall having requested a lottery entry ticket but I must have since I rode the race. Ah wait, 2018 was the year after the CCTCT (CancelledCApeTpwnCycleTour)? Maybe that's why as I had a guaranteed entry from 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase619 Posted October 7, 2019 Share .....didn't sell out last year. could still buy entries in february. so who knows Yeah, was stressed last year after my wife telling me stories of them not getting entries before the lottery process started, so was a bit worried, but knowing how many entries go for sale on here I'm not worried at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ouzo Posted October 7, 2019 Share In the past did you not get priority entry if you had done 10 or more ?Does not seem that way this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spinnekop Posted October 7, 2019 Share I'm heading down for the TOGH. Won't go through the trouble of booking accommodation and entry for the CTCT. Maybe stay over on Friday and do a chilled ride over Suikerbossie and Chappies for free(Depends if this short route **** is not going to interfere with my plans) and then head back to Gagateng on Saturday.

Ahhh, the TOGH - now if ever there was an event that is only one more stuff up away from being completely cancelled... If the CTCT evokes this kind of angry reaction from you I want to be there with popcorn when we get your feedback on the TOGH Long Wheel Base and babse 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the CTCT evokes this kind of angry reaction from you I want to be there with popcorn when we get your feedback on the TOGH Jip.....also thinking that exact same thing........stupidity has no cure right.But I do want to give it a go before ASG completely ****s it up and it goes off the calendar......or maybe it is already FUBAR. Who knows. Definitely not angry about the CTCT. I did ride my bike 80+ kilos that day it was cancelled. Still enjoyed it and the views was great. Just voting (As sooooo many others have done last year) with my wallet this time around! So I'll do most of the nice route the day before but wont fork out that entry fee. Quite an easy decision really. Edited October 7, 2019 by Spinnekop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite an easy decision really. TOGH has so much potential and there certainly is demand for a road stage race in the lead-up to the CTCT, but I'm worried that ASG stuffed it up once too often.

Quite an easy decision really. R1000 a stage for TOGH and then R470 for one day on fully closed roads too expensive??
