They have to issue a sanctioning certificate based on the organiser providing answers to certain criteria. Rider’s safety should be a non-negotiable. If you want his number, send me a PM. here is reply i got from organisers perhaps if i can get that number Edited January 26, 2022 by rorydewet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ouzo Posted January 26, 2022 Share They obviously have no clue how dangerous some of the sections are for the Emperors race, as well as how much they disrupt traffic in the areas. Glad I didnt have budget to enter this race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted January 26, 2022 Share The same weekend as SA Road Champs, so little to no Elites, U23, younger Vets taking part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted January 26, 2022 Share And possibly the older Vets and ladies too as they race in the Saturday afternoon, meaning they must drive 400km to get to the Sunday morning race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
