The Original Great Southern Brevet

Sunday 22 January 2017

More weather woes for some

Halfway through Day 2 on the Great Southern Brevet on still plenty of adjustments in the field as the weather continues to play it's role in this years edition.

While the front of the field hits Cromwell, the middle feels relief to be out of the worst of it.
The Pisa Range was not an option given the conditions. GSB riders are known for being up to a challenge but it would have been on the extreme end of the scale!

Hi Dave. Had a good crack at Omarama Saddle this morning with Darren T and Paul C, real adventure in the wind n cold! Retreated, and now in Kurow campground for the night by myself, will go over Haka Pass on Monday back to Tekapo.
