Good route and waterpoints on the 100km route. 'Goodie bag' was a brown envelope with the number board.

Booked the R500 shuttle service which was a disaster, had to find a lift back to the start to go fetch my car when it was clear at 17:00 that the organizer completely mismanaged the process. Getting a refund will be a painful process by the look of things.

The above and it's just too far from Cape Town to make the effort again unfortunately.

Had the same shuttle service problem. I finish at 12:00 with just the clothes on that I started with, waited till 17:00 and got a lift back with Neil and James to the start to fetch my car.

Seeding was a joke, this event doesn't know what "racing" is and even querying any seeding from the organizer I was told "Elites are invite only" and "You all get there in the end the fastest time wins" which is completely untrue and someone thinking that way doesn't know what racing is about.

I don't rant much about any race and appreciate the efforts of any event organizers to host these but this one won't see me again. It's a gravel race anyway in my opinion and I assume won't appear in the next XCM series.
