The wind and weather on 947 Ride Joburg
Ride Joburg is one of South Africa’s biggest mass rides: 97 km on closed Johannesburg roads, finishing this year with a lap of the Kyalami Grand Prix Circuit. Riders start in seeded batches, so two friends in different batches can meet different conditions on the same road.
In late November the Highveld is warm, and thunderstorms tend to build in the afternoon, so race morning is often the calmest part of the day. The wind matters most on the open highway stretches, where a headwind or a crosswind gust is felt by the whole bunch. Set your start and pace above: the forecast follows the hours you’ll actually be riding. The headwind and tailwind on every stretch of the course appear as soon as the official route is published.
