New Years Day - Hard Core Ride

[Thug]

Ok, well last year we started the tradition of a New Years day hard core ride i.e. > 160k's

 

So this year we are thinking about a ride from Rosebank to the South, a loop around Sugarbush and back. Anyone hardcore enough to join us ?

 

 

 

[NotSoBigBen]

What time you thinking to get to Sugarbush mate?

Is this happening?

 

For sure dude, are you coming ?

 

[Thug]

 

Is this happening?

 

Yebo yes.

 

Leaving garage at Illovo Cycles (Thrupps Centre) at 06:00 sharp.

 

[Pantani]

Eish... what sort of speed, and how much food and money should I bring... and... Ermmm... suppose we will be gone for 10 hours? 

[Pantani]

Will you be doing a lap of the reserve or just going there and coming back?

[Thug]

Distance wise it's probably around 140 - 160k's

 

Ave speed in the region of 27 kph (excl stops)

 

There will be stops at Circus if open or garages for cooldrinks.

 

Probably a full lap of reserve depending on route choice.

 

How much moolah to bring ? Eish - R100 should be ample unless you want to buy us all breakfast

 

 

 

[Pantani]

Somehow I doubt the distance... I'm thinking more like 180km... 

 

Shew, that a long way to ride, especially since I have hardly ridden for the last 3 months...
