  1. Going to be very interesting to see how AH does. What kind of team has he joined - top tier or not? I wonder how many XCO races he will be at...
  2. Ya, no orange trails that i have ever seen. Reds are blues. Red Phoenix is a blue graded trail Cobra at Hoogies is a blue. The upper section of DH0 is a double black for the upper section. The AM trail at Tokai is also black and even more so than it ever was. Trails change - Phoenix can get gnarly and even when well maintained is a high consequence trail due to the speed and exposure.
  3. Jonketshoek uses what you refer to as the forestry system. A red is a blue in IMBA speak. Maps may differ and for instance on Trailforks a double black is shown as a red trail on the map but described as a double black. This is to differentiate it from a single black diamond on the map. It can cause confusion.
  4. Okay its not that bad but reminds us how things have changed...
  5. Should the title not be changed to" Who in their right mind rides anything less than a full power EBike on the mountain"?
  6. Sounds like you Gravelers need MTB's with all that moaning about "corrugations". HTFU man. I think the organizers should ban flat bars and any form of suspension. Gravel purity FTW.
  7. Plus the US gravel scene will find it and come in droves. It will be like the Epic only 'Merican.
  8. That track did in quite a few tyres. Seems they were running rather low pressures and burping them off in the bike park section berms. There was a slow mo shot of Allan's rear tyre looking very squirmy. The U23 races were a poor showcase for the sport and track. Real low budget coverage that hardly showed any angles and made do with the bare minimum of cameras. Should they even bother if that's all they are prepared to do?
  9. I quite enjoyed the broadcasts without commentary but it was nice to have it back for the men's race. Staylive is fairly shite though. Casting to my android box didn't work properly perhaps because of bad internet but even on a good day I get buffering and audio and video sync issues.
