Please check entries from time to time, as changes are being made on a regular basis ( as more information becomes available) to perfect the line-up in it’s finest detail.
The rendavous point will be on the R43 (road between Worcester and Villiersdorp) . Drive 8.5km out of Worcester (direction Villiersdorp ), see Aan de Doorns Winery on right , proceed for another 1,5 km, and wait on side of road at the turn-off to Osdrift farm. This turn-off is to the right, (and 200 m past the Scherpenheuwel / Eilandia turn-off.)
Be at this point , not later than 6.00am, as prosession need to leave at 6.00am to cover another 28km to the Jonaskop gate (no cell phone reception at this point - don’t miss the boat! )
In the likely event of some dozzers missing the departure, continue on the R43 for another 6km, turn left at the first possible turn-off to Doornrivier; this road will take you past Brandvlei Winery. After “8″km it becomes dirt road for about another “8″km. At the point where it becomes tar again, you should have taken the turn-off to the left (dirt road) towards the mountain for another 6km to the “Gate” (heaven or hell)
First climber to leave at 7.00am and last at about 8.00am as per handicap. Everyone summits at 9.00 am. Back down at “Gate” at 9.30am and back at Osdrift at 10.00pm for Breakfast and the Awards Ceremony.

The inagural winner , the current champion , the self appointed race director + founder of Jonaskop TT , Stefan Hugo has crashed + burned spectacularly ( apparently or so he says ) . We will need some eyewitness accounts to verfy the facts .
A undidentified source reported that while training at high altitude with Dan and friends , the race directors determination and aggression exceeded his skill level and he came tumbling down. Of course he says he was light headed from the altitude and it has nothing to do with skill .
Unfortunately a operation is required on thursaday afternoon and well wishes to you stefan , except for the ever sympathetic SCALPEL whos comments were , and i quote ” well thats one director taken care of and only one left to sort out ”
In typical and true HUGO fashion he vows to be at the event and say he will be back . Get well soon .
Now who will be the new champion ?
Race entry is R65/ climber (payable on race day in hard cash, no cheques excepted, don’t even try that one, no credit cards). This includes a BIG, HEALTHY breakfast at Osdrift after the race. ( no summit, no breakfast! ) Should you decide to bring your spouse or supporters and have them enjoying the breakfast with us, it would set you back another R50/ person (they would be more than welcome). WE ASK YOU TO CONFIRM YOUR PARTISIPATION AND THE NUMBERS OF YOUR SUPPORT TEAM, IN ORDER FOR US TO RELAY THESE NUMBERS TO OUR COMPITANT CATERER. We suggest that you confirm via E-mail, philip@pav.co.za or stefan@osdrift.co.za
