  1. @Bub Marley Hey Bub. Understandable, Road To Desolation is quite hard to find online. The race is organized by Community Connect x Standert and all race related posts are shared on their Instagram page. https://instagram.com/cc_x_standert?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== I did the route with some friends earlier this year. It’s one of the best routes I’ve seen. Graaf-Reneit is bloody far but we’ll worth the mission.
  2. Looking at doing a ride out to Melkbos from town tomorrow. Anyone know if that bike path is ok for a road bike?
  3. Did this loop earlier this year with a little crew, could be the best gravel route on the race calendar. Keen for a big weekend in Graaf-Reinet.
  4. 😮‍💨 Ok ok looking a whole lot better than what last week was saying. 🙏 🤞 head wind up the climb. Great. 😐
  5. Hey Mongoose. Yeah, we will have a vehicle at the registration that will take everyone’s warm stuff up to the finish 👌 It’s going to be chilly up there!
  6. 38c should be fine. There’s a rough section between 35-45km that might rattle you a bit but 38c should be good for 95% of the route. 42 will probably be the safest choice.
  7. This was such a gnarly race. Massive respect to everyone that took it on. The dual up front was amazing to follow.

  10. I've been riding the Teravail Cannonball 47 for about 6months. https://teravail.com/products/cannonball-tire?variant=39350972645427 Been super happy with them so far. Raced and bike packed with them. Grippy on the gravel and fast on the tar. They're available at the OSCS Clubhouse in Sea Point, Cape Town.

  13. https://www.instagram.com/p/CcfrS1iq_qz/ Heres some footage of the route and the final boss climb.
  14. It's such a bummer. Zach really loved this bike. He's ok. Apparently the black Chrysler Voyager was tailing him for a while before swerving into his back wheel and knocking him to the ground. 3 guys jumped out an beat him pretty hard while the driver stayed in the car. Apparently they struck him over the head with a brick and kicked him on the ground a couple of times. Luckily his helmet took most of the blows. Really hope the bike pops up and these guys are caught.
