Skubarra Posted February 4, 2020 Share What's new distance +-? Is malanshoogte not an option?Given the Saving Private Ryan scenes we had last time the route went over there I doubt it... So basically Durbie Dash take 2? I would have opted for the usual Adderley finish & neutral zone through D'Urbanvale if I was the organiser but lets see... Whoever has the Strava KOM on Mosselbank road you can kiss it goodbye... Edited February 4, 2020 by Skubarra MDJ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FootballingCyclist Posted February 4, 2020 Share Would love to see what they do with the seedings after this event as it is after all a "Premier seeding event" after the SCT cancellation! Alot of people were relying on this race to give them a good/better seeding for the CTCT... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alot of people were relying on this race to give them a good/better seeding for the CTCT... Unless it's windy, I'm sure it'll be similar to Paarl last weekend, beta will be under 1 and near possible to improve seeding if you're sitting mid A group. Now I'm kinda hoping for wind, and not to get dropped in crosswinds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andydude Posted February 4, 2020 Share Yip, pass the familiar Adderley sprint finalè, then a technical twisty dip into the D Vale neighbourhood with 3 circles and a few speed bumps with a small kicker up towards Vissershok road, 1 km out to the white chalk Gonna be a bit crazy Be careful ⚠️Yip, was thinking the same. 100 guys in A group trying to race through D'Urbanvale ????

FootballingCyclist Posted February 4, 2020 Share But this weekend we have 8 Savages riding from a lower seeding to try make it interesting [emoji16]Please bring a tow rope and let us know the seeding before hand so we can either start and try hang on in the same bunch, or wait till you catch up just to wave you on by..

Wannabe Posted February 5, 2020 Share If that is correct, it is basically the same as the Tour De PPA route (which costs about R150 less to enter ) Bankie99 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
