So ended one of the most<br />
competitive Roof of Africa’s to date.<br />
Now not far off 50 years old, the Roof<br />
is one of the oldest races of its kind in<br />
the World. Dirt And Trail Magazine along<br />
with Peter Luck and some of the past<br />
Roof greats will be putting a coffee table<br />
book together to commemorate this<br />
milestone. Past Roofies – we need your<br />
input, photo’s and stories. Go and dig<br />
through the archives please and get in<br />
touch!<br />
As usual, this year there were plenty<br />
of surprises along the way, and no-one<br />
was able to really guess the outcome<br />
properly. There were a record number<br />
of finishers this year, and one very<br />
encouraging thing was the number of<br />
new young riders in the top 16 of the<br />
gold class. Some of them didn’t even<br />
look tired at the end, which bodes well<br />
for racing in SA. Lots of credit must go<br />
to the organisers, who seemed to have<br />
hit the right combination of distance and<br />
difficulty this year…maybe this will bring<br />
the big International names back next<br />
year?<br />
