mallo Posted November 24, 2008 Share Well done to all who rode the race. Now you Capies need to transfer your race savy to all the races outside of WC as well, this should give you guys the motivation that you can mix it with the best in SA.

Red Zone Posted November 24, 2008 Share Wow, was a bit of a tough day out, the extra 5 km and the headwind made it hard going. I felt that it was much better run this year, the supporte vehicles didnt get in the way too much, except for the City Cycling Club Combi and the Sanlam bus Pure Savage 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
butafly Posted November 24, 2008 Share Neotel had many ex capies in their team - nice to see that two of the more mature riders had the decency to attend the prize giving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pirate Posted November 24, 2008 Share It was one of the toughest races I have ever done. The Jock is really tough but this bugger is never-ending. None of us have ever done it, we did it in the mixed teams with 5 men and 5 woman and it didn't go as planned, but we all finished at around 7H30. Long day in the saddle But great organization More Vaalies must try it !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intern Posted November 24, 2008 Share Surely some news by now?Daiken won with Andersons second.Time' date='where was Neotel etc etc??Weather?? [/quote'] Neotel was 3rd - and they were lucky to get that as they dropped their "development" guys after 50k and the 2 of the 7 remaining were battling - saw Perry giving a helping push on the last few hills!Rather poor show that only 2 of the team (Maartens, Perry) made it to the podium for prizegiving!I was mightily impressed by the Daiken Gu "old timers" who looked good for the whole trip. 'Impressive' to see Neotel pros providing a sterling example, motorpacing one of their guys back behind the team car.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intern Posted November 24, 2008 Share Winningtime results will change - my chip was not linked to my name so we were initially given 6:04 but had 6 guys in at 5:57.....should move us to 6 or 7th... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Jay Posted November 24, 2008 Share Yeah those neotel guys had a rough day, not so cool with the motorpacing, but i did feel for them at the end, i also saw jeremy getting pushed up some of the rollers after 160km stop, he looked really battered, surprized he even made it to the finish...

Thank you for the opportunity, i thoroughly enjoyed it, pity about the mechanicals, take away all the punctures and mechanicals you guys had and you would have broken into that top 5 i am sure!
