Correct. Its the same ratio I raced Hilton Dirt Fest on, and various training rides around Albert Falls, Cascades, Bizley, Karkloof etc, so hopefully it works out for me on Sunday.... in the heat...

thanks for the replies guys. I am looking forward to it, just hope this kewl weather holds. Going to run 32x17 on 29er. there are more flats than you think on hill2hill. I am not worried about the big open road climbs, I currently climb Friesland 45 seconds faster than I could last year on geared bike, so should be OK on those. The short steep ones could be the problem, especially with traffic, or if at all muddy. Anyways, gonna just head out there an enjoy this race, in one gear. Should be a blast!

i am running a 32x17 for this year. Hoping its not as hot and windy as yesterday!! my ratio is 1.88, so hopefully only 1 part pain to 1.88 parts fatigue!!!

what ratio has anyone run for hill2hill and what was your time? Cheers, thanks.

I am... In your team!

In for 2013. Whoop, whoop.

these pics and reports have been awesome, thanks so much to all involved. Race2Rhodes on the cards for 2014!!

Can anyone tell me the ratio the single speed bikes run on the PMB to Rhodes section. Thanks Bruce.

Any updates on the Dreyers please?

Reading that gives me a cold shiver. HUGE RESPECT DUDE.

Cotic Rocks!

I went out this morning and caught up with todays batch about 25kms out of PMB. All looking good, a beaut day out of Maritzburg. Martin and Jeannie in high spirits, as well as the 3 guys who did the 80km trail run yesterday.

Does the last batch leave from PMB on Monday morning? and if so, what tiime and from where please? thanks Percy

After a bike fit with Velo Life, the PYGA got a slammed Ritchey WCS stem and a Selle Italia SLR. rides like a dream...

Ryan and I both rode PYGA OneTen29 at Joberg2C. Both bikes went like a bomb, no problems at all. Shout out to TorqueZone for keeping them hundreds during the week. I saw about 9 PYGA's there, not sure how the other guys finished up, but these ones we spoke to during the week were loving the bikes.

They are 100% still around and the rocking mag in SA. Excellent content and a great bunch of guys there. Support it, it's a top mag.

Thanks, DJR.

Per month, SURE!

Be a pity to strip it all, Hairy, so you should just take the whole bike!!! NOT!!! HA HA

So, the PYGA is now 6 months already I figured it was time for a new Thompson stem and post and some Avid XO Trails, awesome brakes with the new 4 piston design they stop this bike like a brick wall and are light and good looking, and .........................quite................... And a gold chain!

Some small editions to the Cotic Solaris SS, XT Brakes and Baradine Floating Rotors, thanks to the good service from Janos at EvoBikes -

What terrible news. So sad to hear, thoughts are with his family. RIP Burry.

Thanks for the reply, Patches.

Hi there My son is a bit younger, we recently moved him onto a Momsen JSL40 (24" bike) when he was not yet 8. It is very light (9kgs) and he is absolutely loving it. The build qlt and geometry on the bike is very good.
