82% cloud cover and only a 7kh/h wind - we can just wish.

 

I'll wait for Epic Ride weather to be able to forecast for the day (currently its to far into the future for a forecast from ER)

i just hope the wind that we've been having lately stays away on the day.

The wind is okay, but the heat is something else.IMG_6531.jpeg.66945c455a5a22254d0cd2ae9cec549f.jpeg

Do I need to go to the expo on Thursday - Saturday for registration? Or can you register on the day?

I remember one year, I started in S with my wife it was 28°C on the start line, imagine what the temp felt like after starting at 9:00 and riding for 4 hours.

I went out last year, after racing “lap 1” to meet up with friends at the top of Jan Smuts. I left the Team Vitality hospitality area at 09:03 and recorded an average temp of 33°C and a high of 38°C. Got home just before 13:00.

I had a 9:50 start time last year and did 4 hours through that midday heat.. (i say 4 hours, there was some change on the less favorable side of that number 😉🤪🤣)

First time doing the full race.. it was harsh.. that Coca cola at the end hits hard..
