• The Race organizers shall implement cut-off points along the route which points must be reached by the riders within specific times. It is the Race Directors discretion whether or not he wants to enforce these cut-offs. The cut-offs and times shall be as follows: • RV1 Vanderkloof: 12pm Thursday • RV2 Britstown: 12pm Friday • RV3 Loxton: 12pm Saturday • RV4 Sutherland: 11am Sunday

I see someone posted a live link, but this service wants R38 to register, anyone figure anything out?

The cut dot is just an imaginary line at average speed between Wednesday 12:00 and Monday 12:00. You are allowed to fall behind it, you just need to be at the designated cut-off points in time. Usually there are a few guys falling behind the dot, then get a lekker downhill and catch it again. Gemmerbal is flirting way too much with this idea though!

These links are spammers or whatever they are called. The live feed from the finishline they do through Facebook.

Thought as much, thanks.

Vernon Rudman and Liza Vivier always ride events together and was riding together up until now.. Looks like he made a tough call to leave her behind at WP5 to try and stay ahead of the cut dot himself..

Jenny is looking super strong! Well ahead of the record ladies dot, and 200km lead on the 2nd lady.

Probably going to hit the tar road between Ceres and Bains in the early morning before sunrise if she doesn't stop too long in Ceres.. I wouldn't want to be on that piece of road with a bicycle just after pay day.. apart from being a target, broken glass everywhere.
