It has been brought to my attention that cyclists are using the section of M4 Ruth First Highway that we have agreed is out of bounds to cyclists.
The out of bounds section of road runs, Durban side – Blue Lagoon / Beachwood Mangroves Nature Reserve to uMhlanga side – M12 / Lighthouse Road intersection. Please remember this agreement arrived in the interest of protecting cyclist safety. This section of road experiences high vehicle traffic volume and has been the site of numerous cycling related accidents and fatalities. In the interesting of spending more quality time with you on the bike – please remember and bide by this agreement.
We are excited to bring this FINAL RACE BRIEF to you and look forward to a successful event on Dargle Road this weekend. As you know – the route is tough and demanding. In my view, this is exactly what a Provincial Road event should be. The road surface is good. Potholes have been repaired. Our venue is The Hay Barn. A charming venue on Dargle Road at the Hebron Haven turn off.
You will see that we have amended start times, distances and age category groupings. We did this in the interest of racing and making your event worthwhile. Please make sure you check the start list for your event. Contact me if have any questions.
Good luck if racing and supporting. We’ll see you up there.
