Cape Town Cycle Tour 2020

[MORNE]

Struggling to find this info: when can we collect our race packs? The CTCT's website is very clear about where​ but not when. Of course I could have missed it somehow. 

any time at the expo/while it is on.

It's just after you crest smits winkel after the entrance to Cape Point reserve

corridor of death because everyone relaxes but because of the gradient the pace is hot

 

or tepid in my case

[eddy]

wonder how this oke ended up in 1B..poor oke probably got spat out the back before the underpass

I did a 3:51 from A once. 

 

I can't recall the reason I didn't drop back before the start, but there was a logistical issue about meeting up in the runup, but I stopped at the Windmill before UCT and waited for a friend who started much later and we rode together from there on.

And a horse to you if YOU do it this year in less than 3.51 on an old Colnago - non modified   

Challenge accepted!!!!!!!!!! He is in my start group, if he can hang on(and he has been given permission to suck my wheel), I am pretty sure we will go well under that.

I'm happy for him.

 

On Monday HE can start feeding it and also have his local vet place the order for his new Land Cruiser......

Pot HOLES along the AVENUE of Trees.

Around the middle of the stretch of Trees by the WHITE BRICK Side WALLS.

I did a bit better than that last year on a 1987 master pretty much nose in the wind - This year I may have a new old Colnago ready just on time and I have a decent wheel in front of me

 

But EDDY you know my daughter wants that horse so I may have to race Jewbacca on his BMX

Not buying.

 

There are people prepared to pay good money if someone is silly enough to take an eating, 5h!tting, colic ridden bottomless pit off their hands.....

 

I could turn a profit on the deal

1 more sleep until we get to see the Windguru forecast. So far it looks calm for way too long so we'll most likely have a repeat of the conditions from this Friday.

Sounds almost like owning a Land Rover.     Or a boat!

[ChrisF]

Maybe...

Imagine doing 7 hours from 1A bunch, you get to enjoy the course and see the entire field of participants pass you...
