The all new PYGA TiG, what a beaut! Cannot explain how well this bike rides the trails. Simply spectacular.

n 2017 Martin Day 1Allendale. 12h10/12h20Centacow. 14h20/14h20Ntsikeni. 18h45/19h00GE. 22h40/01h10Masakala. 5h55/6h20

on 2017 timing so far.. :-)

What is the second and third fastest record times to Rhodes, after the 2016 record?

absolute machine, getting to there at that pace is superhuman

2016, Martin left Malek at 13h15. Mike has some catching up to do this arvie and this evening. What does tonights weather forecast look like on Lehana's? Wind?

the next 12 hours will be interesting.., temp around zero, no rain and a light breeze - lovely riding conditions.

On track so far, Centocow before 16h30 ish , as the sun nears the horizon...

yes, he has to tackle lehanas by night to have a shot at the sub48. Weather is okish, chilly and cloudy, dry now and wind is breezy, but not too bad.

These are the times he will be targeting over the next +/- 44 hours. Into Allandale around 13h15 today, then cruising through Centocow mission by 16h30, a quick snack at Ntsikeni near to 21h30, shout hello to Sheila and Charles then off to Masakala for some breakfast, Malek at midday on Friday, some Vuvu chicken and maybe a zamalek before 9pm, and then Rhodes before 07h47 on Saturday to break the record? Sometime tonight, he will probably pass Batch1, John, Nico2 and Wade as they make their way to GE or maybe Masakala tonight?

It is a reasonably difficult day, and for these guys on the back of a 15 hour day 1. Looks like they did not get lost, so just slow going for them. If you know the route well, it should be more like 7-9 hours easily, so an 18 hour day for them was tough going. Kudos for sticking it out and lets hope they go well today.

i am going to stay under the radar, dont worry. Taking it easy to rhodes and then enjoying the journey to Diemersfontein. just need to get there in time for my flight, which gives me about 24 days!

batches are up.

i am sure we will see the batches on the website anyday now. :-)

same here, some moments are "man I am looking forward to this" and others are waking up in a cold sweat thinking "o my, this is going to be impossible" 4 weeks to go. Got to stop adding things to the list of what to pack...
