How do you get on the sms contact list?

[Wannabe]

When you registered with Winningtime/Racetec they ask for contact details. Go and check yours and update if not correct.

Thanks, just phoned them..details are correct on system but not getting sms. They are re-entering their side.

I'm also in C group... Out of interest Wannabe, what is your PPA seeding? Just wonder how much it is based on that. I have just reseeded to G group for PPA.

Lucky #7 for me.....

 

Nice & early start in Racing tandems @ 6h10

 

To all of you passing a Black Raleigh tandem with White & Green MANIC CYCLES kit, feel free to give us a push...... especially uphill. We promise to help on the flats & downhills.

Seems PPA seeding is the better of the two, I'm also G for PPA and had my work cut out to stick to the front guys with the Medalion. Then I got a provisional D for the BIG funride.

Were you still at the front at the finish? I was the idiot that sat back in the group for 105km's and then sprinted off for the last few 100 metres (was my first ride in G so didn't want to work until I know what speed to expect and that I'm capable of doing it).

[Wannabe]

Nope, did my stint pulling from Paarl and a good section of the road to Stellies. Ended up on dead wheel at second to last turnoff (one leading up to R44), could not get past quick enough, the elastic broke, could not get back up and then took it a bit slower to the finish. You guys put three minutes into me over that last 5 kilometers.

[Edge_Design]

The last 30km's were seriously fast (after the walking pace start!)... Will do my share of the work this weekend though (if I am able to keep up that is!).

I'm also seeded in C. I reckon the bunch will move quite fast with most people hanging on and then the real splits will come at the climbs. I've often done races where I was dropped going 35km/h up a big roller but then catching the group again on the next climb. Btw I'm also seeded in G for PPA.

[leet22]

I'll be bringing up the rear. Im in U

[Puncheur]

I am in G. 06:42 start, me think!



Have been looking forward to this race for a looonng time!

[Fakes]

Also starting in C. What sort of time will our bunch do? I'll do a bit of work at the front as I always do, anybody going to help me? - I'll be in the Cape Town Giants kit (white and blue)
