Quite a decent race from my perspective (only the mediocre are always at their best). I started in the last group, waiting for a friend. Managed 2:44 (against 3:25 for the 80km Langebaan Lagoon, or 2:50 for last year's 64km Ninty-Niner) so I can be content. Well done to all - how the hell does anyone finish under 2hours? - and you okes who did both races this weekend are absolute machines!
Those top riders train for many hours. Over many days.
And, they race in teams.
Not too mention their top-end equipment.

Well done, LeTurbo!

That's a great goal for the Medallion.

And well done - after a tough start to the weekend. :thumbup:


I can only but try :thumbup: Working on a 33 km Average, should actually work out to just above that, maybe in the 3:10 - 3:15. Just need to stay on track, cause the BIG funride I would REALLY like to come in at around 3:40. Climbing is getting a bit stronger, managed to average 18.9km for OKW, Slangkop and Boyes, so if i can up that tempo to around 20 - 20.5 in the next month, I recon the 3:40 Peninsula Funride is going to be OK. One can only but try :blush:

Local race bites the dust. I'll miss this one.
I did everything by the seat of my pants. That's why I got hurt so much.

I think it was pulled because it clashed with the Peninsula Marathon. Traffic police pulled it due to the problems of running two events in the south peninsula
