Grant Prince Posted October 26, 2021 Share I want to do this race next year but see a GPS is compulsory. Dont want to buy one for one race only dont think i will use it again. Any suggestion? Maybe a cell phone app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grant Prince Posted October 26, 2021 Share Apparently they post the route to download on GPS. Dont want to get lost???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulienR Posted October 26, 2021 Share I have done this event twice. The route is well marked and there are plenty of cyclists so gps is not necessary. They also do not check... eala, mecheng89 and bertusmouton 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_David_ Posted February 9, 2022 Share Accommodation booked this morning, just under 3 months to go. Guess I better start doing some longer rides over the weekends. mecheng89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant Prince Posted February 9, 2022 Share Yip now is good time to start training for the race. I am on the 60KM weekend route now but want to move up to 80 soon. Looking forward to race day. _David_ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay F Posted February 9, 2022 Share Very excited for this race, my first R2TSun. Have a couple of mates doing it and will be starting as a group, but some of them are too strong for the others. Looking forward to it. mecheng89 and _David_ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zama7 Posted April 7, 2022 Share Hey guys, generally how difficult is the race or is it just far ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FondTF2 Posted April 7, 2022 Share Technical - NO Corrugations - Yes (probably a lot worse with all the rain of late) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_David_ Posted April 7, 2022 Share 1000m elevation over 160km doesn't seem too bad, makes me happy since I have done zero training. Edited April 7, 2022 by _David_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the less fit and inexperienced at multi-hour rides, this would be a bad idea. peetwindhoek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
