Are you ever going to go tubeless ? Sounds like all your races end with a puncture ????

dev null Posted October 12, 2021 Share With the quality of the roads getting worse around Cape Town a gravel bike might not be such a bad idea. ChrisF, Pure Savage and DJR 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bit from the top of Smitwinkels all the way past Scarborough, Misty Cliffs, Ocean View past Masi to the Sun Valley intersection is in serious need of a resurfacing.

I was putting my faith in the Pirellis and the fact that the previous set did not puncture once. a few of the particularly rough patches of tar had me looking down to make sure the wheel was not flat.

Lifer Posted October 12, 2021 Share Anyone know why the route was diverted down Seacliff road by Bantry bay instead of the usual M6. This was late on. My wife freaked out as was pretty buggered by that point and ended up having to walk down as it was too tight and steep for her at that stage. Turned out there is a 7hr time limit to qualify for a result and we ended up 7:02 ... Bit of spilt milk for her, now unofficial, first attempt. Probably should have read the rules to see that there is a 7hr limit but we had assumed the cut-offs were the only issue and that any time limit would have been visibly shared alongside the cut-offs. Bit bleak but lesson learned. DJR and ChrisF 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
