What a gorgeous day to ride 222km. What started off quite cool for the early starters turned into perfect riding conditions, with just a bit of wind on the homeward leg so that the eventual winners deserved their win.
The competition was two-fold, with a handicap system in place, with the fastest people starting last, thus giving them opportunity to catch those ahead of them. This means we had 2 sets of winners – those crossing the finish line first, and those with the shortest time taken to complete the course. Group 4 leaders (fastest group) so nearly caught the break away from Group 1. After starting 2 hours later than Group1, they only finished 10 minutes behind.
Line honours were taken by the following people:
Women:
- Megan West
- Lize Cornelius
- Hayley Preen
Men:
- Adrian Haupt
- Anwar Railloun
- Dogon Wilton
