I dont think Bicycling got it right, or else they dont include Boyes Drive. A sub 3 has to get to the top of Smits in 1:11 according to the mag (If I recall correctly).

 

Thats seriously fast!

sub 3 big diffs, the Cycle Tour one says top of Smuts (51.9 k's) in 1:23:58 @ ave of 37.08 vs the 1:11 in Bicycling @ same point, then they have the next one @ Soetwater, 65 km's or 1:43 (CT) vs Bicycling Soetwater 58 km or 1:41 - clearly there is a huge mistake somewhere.....

Suikerbossie should be your focus point!

A lot still happens in the first half of the race, pace might be slow, climbs etc.

 

After suikerbossie ... its the home free stretch.

Whether you have boyes dive or not before, this stretch remains the same.

 

If you hit the top of suikerbossie at 2:28 you are looking at 2:50.

anything up to 2:37 and you will still be under 3:00

Buy the new issue of the Bicycling magazine. <?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Between pages 32 and 33 is a time split sheet dived into columns from a sub 3 to a sub 6.

It's actually a sticker which you can stick on your bike.

yip quite correct think it was quite a good idea ClapClap now just need a place to stick it LOL
