IMPACT

From social media: Event has been postponed due to unrest in Sabie!

Thanks Chris for the reminder, Cois memories will live on.

Substitutions closed in February, don't think there is an option for a late change now. They keep the timing chip - you use it in any racetec timed road event.

Would have thought that they will start each day with fully charged batteries, maybe their mechanic stuffed up!

Early morning ride around the farmlands. From the lush green vineyards of Missing Link to the barren wheat fields of Fair Cape.

Baie sterkte Reinet in hierdie moeilike tyd vir jou en jou familie. Na hierdie pad wat jy saam met Francois geloop het die afgelope 4 jaar maak dit mens al te meer dankbaar om nog soggens op te staan en die geleentheid te he om nog fiets te kan ry.

Well done Kevin

Live on Facebook now

Widespread rain forecast for the Western Cape interior from tomorrow, could make riding difficult for those still with 400 - 500km to go.

Kevin almost in Ceres, pulled a 36km gap to Brian now.

EFT done.

Will contribute R1000, just confirm account details.

Feedback received from Tygerberg MTB, They will engage the landowner with evidence in the form of photos, a trail report, usage stats etc and threads like this one to convince them to step up their game. The club will endeavor to take over the maintenance of the trails. The meeting is scheduled for this week, hoping for a positive outcome.

I mailed the club, let's see what happens.

Maybe Tygerberg Mountain Bike Club should just stop paying them their annual usage fee and move on. It used to be a nice venue for cyclists, but as others mentioned they do not seem to want the cyclists there any more.

Sterkte Francois

Maintenance on Cobra was completed. If you go through to the Welvergenoegd side - the section next to the river is very wet and muddy presently

Vasbyt, dink aan jou.

Nice to feel the sun on your back and enjoying the green country side after the recent rain in the Cape

Making use of the weather break. Ride out and back to Bloemendal before the next cold front arrives tomorrow.

The JSL40 came standard with these, I still have a used set hanging in the garage

Bike addict ordered from the supplier - Momsen. I am sure any LBS can order for you. Not sure if you are able to order directly from them.

Chris, park at the Protea hotel and ride via the corridor to Bloemendal. Do your loops at Bloemendal and ride same way back or via upper Bloemendal & Magic Forest back to the hotel.

Bike addict sourced 24 inch tubeless Vee’s for me. I think Momsen is the South African agents
