finish line. Remember to stop<br />

and remove your GPS device.<br />

aQuellé will be on the finish<br />

line of each stage handing out<br />

water so you can rehydrate.<br />

Clover Vanilla and Chocolate<br />

Milk will also be available in<br />

the recovery area, and the USN<br />

team will be offering shakers<br />

and recovery drinks. They will<br />

also offer advice to anyone who<br />

experienced hydration, sugar<br />

and other issues along the route.<br />

Once hydrated and recovered,<br />

you will be required to collect<br />

your Black Box from the Super<br />

Group truck. Trolleys will be<br />

available to help you push your<br />

box to your tent. Please do this<br />

yourself and refrain from using<br />

the race village staff. The race<br />

village helpers have other tasks<br />

to perform and the offer of tips<br />

is not encouraged.<br />

Delete the first numeral from<br />

your race board and this is your<br />

tent number. Once you have<br />

found your tent, leave your<br />

trolley in the passage and a<br />

porter will return it.<br />

Please shower before going to<br />

lunch in the Barn. (For hygienic<br />

and other obvious reasons, we<br />

request that all riders shower<br />

before visiting any dining area.)<br />

The Barn at Mackenzie and<br />

Jolivet is open 24 hours and<br />

will serve lunch, tea, coffee,<br />

chocolates, banana bread<br />

and supper for the duration of<br />

the event for all competitors<br />

between the start and finish<br />

lines. Tea and instant coffee<br />

will be provided but all other<br />

beverages (alcoholic and soft)<br />

will need to be purchased from<br />

the bars provided by the local<br />

communities.<br />

Supporters and race crew<br />

need to stock up with all their<br />

meals, drinks, etc, before<br />

the start as these will not be<br />

available in the race villages. We<br />

are in the country so shops are<br />

extremely scarce.<br />

Cut-off policy<br />

We will have a cut-off at the last<br />

water point of each day and one<br />

at the finish at 5pm. These cutoffs<br />

are very achievable and will<br />

be announced at race briefing<br />

each evening.<br />

Why a cut-off policy? We<br />

have an incredible backup<br />

support crew who look after<br />

you in daylight hours. You need<br />

to be in before dark each night<br />

or this impacts on them and<br />

results in us spending too much<br />

time looking after the unfit<br />

and underprepared versus the<br />

majority of our riders.<br />

<strong>sani</strong>2c is an event that is about<br />

achieving something. It is not<br />

a bike tour. Only riders who<br />

finish all three stages will get the<br />

Finisher’s T-shirt in Scottburgh.<br />

Prizegivings<br />

We will stage a prizegiving at<br />

the race village each day. Stage<br />

winners and overall category<br />

leaders should be present at<br />

the daily awards ceremony. The<br />

final prize giving will be held at<br />

Scottburgh beach at 1pm.<br />

Day 1: Mackenzie 6pm<br />

Day2: Jolivet 7pm<br />

Day 3: Scottburgh 1pm<br />

NOTE: Only the Race event gets<br />

awarded for overall category.<br />

The Trail and Adventure riders<br />

will receive fun prizes.<br />
