Woke up too late to enter the 90 something  :-/ but am going to do the 56.  Will have to get the starting number on Saturday.  Good luck, it's a reasonably tough course.

Crossed the line in 3hrs. I'm happy with my time, considering it was somewhat windy during the first half and hot towards the end. Our bunch missed a turn-off along the route aswell. The three climbs going past Midrand are tough indeed! I call them the serial killers.
Enjoyable race overall.

Great Vo2.  I heard from the guys that the 90km was tough.  Must say I enjoyed the 58km.  Did my best over the distance, just wished the road was better.  At some stages I considered selling my bike and buying myself a mountain with dual shocks.
