Mamil Posted December 31, 2022 Share Looking into the year and lining up my 2023 riding goals and itinerary and interested to hear what others have planned. Trailseeker banhoek in January. 99er road race and tour de ppa. Tour de cap and ctct. Eroica nova, swartberg granfondo and 36one which is the major focus of the year for me, my second one. Edit to correct 2033 to 2023... Cos who knows what will be happening then... I'll probly be on an ebike I'm sure Edited December 31, 2022 by Mamil Typo HdB, Danger Dassie and mecheng89 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well 2033 I'm not doing anything yet. Haven't planned that far. But next year I'm doing the trailseeker series with my son all 4 the amashova with my dad and thinking about a stage races. Depending on funds. But the berg and bush looks interesting Mamil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisF Posted December 31, 2022 Share My second CTCT. My main focus is Trans Augrabies. Hoping more of the old Boland MTB events are back on the calendar. Edited January 1, 2023 by ChrisF Mamil 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisF Posted February 8, 2023 Share Friends ..... Here I was planning a nice MTB year .... Then I got roped into the Winelands 102km road event .... ENJOYED it. Now the 99er .... an early start has me worried .... o-well, I will stay well left and enjoy my ride. Then da Argus Still looking for MTB events in the Boland..... At least these current events keeps the legs pumping and helps in prepping for the Trans Augrabies Edit - September I am doing Vines and Views in Vredendal 👍👍 Edited February 9, 2023 by ChrisF Scary Rider and Fred van Vlaanderen 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HdB Posted February 8, 2023 Share Herald, CTCT, and hopefully all 5 of the Eden area crits. Unfortunately the Amashova is just too expensive a trip from here, so I don't see that happening again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jbr Posted February 9, 2023 Share I'm starting to feel worry about how quiet the organisers are about Tour du Cap. Usually we get 3 emails per week telling us how overwheelmed they are with requests to keep entries open and what not and they start throwing mad specials arounds. So far nothing, entries close tonight and I don't know if I should secure my entry now or wait to see if there's a special later....or if they cancel. Would be sad as the route is so much better than the previous editions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jewbacca Posted February 9, 2023 Share I'm doing a very slow CTCT this year and probably one or two of the mild Enduros. That is the sum total of my event commitments this year. Illness, recovery and life can change how you live so quickly! Good luck to those doing some big events. I am a little jealous but trying my best to be happy with what I have.
