Sick photo! wow

5000 riders for the day at an average of R250 pp = R1,25mil for the day!! Good business to be in...

Badluck struck, was in top 15-20 doing the 60km, at 25km mark then got a sidewall cut before Delheim waterpoint, end of story.

Nooooooo! and I only packed shortsleeves. ..

Hope ya'll have a splendid day out in the wild! And to all those not in the know, watch your bikes, the Bosch Squad will be out and about today seeking easy pickings

Did you not get yours yet?

Hoogekraal Friday Fun

I might swap with you after the first climb, just look for someone puking in the bush, no need to converse, just take my board

Guys, just go flat bar hey, we can pick up the pieces afterwards

You might be right, dont know how they get to these figures sometimes, either too much or too little. 1500-1900 is still normal, STRAVA will give you 4852000m of climbing (slight exaggeration) for the 60km

Wow, you're a good guy hey

Dunno what size frame you ride, but Omnico had a XL like mine, raw carbon, in stock, maybe you can twist their arm for a good price

Yeah, you are correct, I think they switched over to normal dropouts with the 2013 frames, as mine is a 2011 model and a friend of mine has a 2012 with the same dropout. Apparently it was designed to accomodate single speed convertions and will also work on belt drive convertions.

Try a Rocket Ron front when you have to replace your next tyre, even more grip will come your way!

Been running the Wide Lightnings about 4 months now, they are flawless, very stiff, solid when planting berms and spreads the 2.25 Rocket Rons front and rear nicely on the rim. My experience with these over the previous Lightnings and Race models has seen no dings whatsoever, something widely accustomed to AC's, and my theory in this regard is that the wider rim spreading the tyre, protects the face better. Crazy good wheels these

Got a new set of Hope Race X2 Stealth brakes, XTR Cassette 11-36, set of KCNC Razor rotors, KMC10sl chain to drop my Zaskar Carbon 9r down to 9.62kg

Yoh, see I got 30th/724 last year, dont see that happening again this year.....is Lance still around?

Johny B, tell everyone you know this guy.....very very well.

oh, oops more pressure from me to me. Just make sure that seatpost is nice and warm to grab onto up that first everest climb Aaron

Did a 3:18 the last two years, 60km, on both occasions, hope to be there and there about again this year. I just hate hill starts tho, they stuff me up gloriously, takes me 15km to get my mojo going

Carry one or two ENO sachets with you, if you see a bottleneck in the distance, empty it in your mouth, charge the Bottleneck throthing and shouting "I need a doctor"....Promise you, you'll not be stuck anywhere

Still an awesome bike, and upgrades come with time! Enjoy man
