Elvin Posted January 24, 2011 Share anyone here doing this one? Hows the climbs? I'm used to training the whale coast route from Gordons bay up Clarence to Rooi Els. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Luke. Posted January 24, 2011 Share Worst climb comes 7k's in - Ou Kaaps eastern side. Apparently it is like your pump station climb in Gordons Bay, whatever that is. Then it's over Black Hll, up Smits (part of the Argus), Slangkop and back over Ou Kaaps. http://www.mapmyride.com/ride/south-africa/cape-town/452534084 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTB_Roadie Posted January 25, 2011 Share Cool, if thats the worst then i dont have much to worry about Remember you coming back over ou Kaapseweg also...its going to be a leg worker but fun, similar to the Cobra but I think it might be a little faster as it looks like more descents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fandacious Posted January 25, 2011 Share Remember you coming back over ou Kaapseweg also...its going to be a leg worker but fun, similar to the Cobra but I think it might be a little faster as it looks like more descents More descents = more climbs anyways - you climb like a helium balloon so i'm sure you're not worried Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted January 25, 2011 Share Remember you coming back over ou Kaapseweg also...its going to be a leg worker but fun, similar to the Cobra but I think it might be a little faster as it looks like more descents Total ascent is about 950m for this race if I remember correctly. Check the mapmyride link for an accurate figure. Less climbing than the Cobra anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andretraut Posted January 25, 2011 Share Glad this one is not a Pro Classic event, so I can give it a miss! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spat Posted January 25, 2011 Share Ho does black hill from that side compare to when you come from the other side like we did in Cobra, if that makes sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTB_Roadie Posted January 25, 2011 Share that side is way easier! Actually both sides isnt that bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elvin Posted January 25, 2011 Share I'm entered. Hows the wind there this time of the year? Lately the wind is real bad in Gordons Bay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
