Definitely 168, I was mistakenly sent a 156 Q XX crank for my Flash - it only clears your chainstay by about 2mm.

What does it weigh?

Kasper De Vries as a kid??

No, but I do ride a Spez epic marathon?

Really enjoyed my first Voriberg! Definitely tough and my legs are quite tender right now. Finished in 3h07 so happy with that, managed to catch a couple of guys on lap 2. I think this is a very well balanced course with a bit of everything - steep climbs with some rock, steep descents with a lot of rock! plenty single track and some fast flats, even a bit of sand. Best thing is it's 99.9% rideable (suppose 100% for some). Thought the course was well marked ( much better than last week's fiasco at Red Barn!) and no congestion. I will be back.

I'm also in! Is the 70km a 2 lap course?

Just recieved seeding details. 4 batches in the 50km.

I'm in too. Not too keen on the dust but Red Barn is awsome!

Ha ha. Let me add mine. Look 695sr with SRAM red and Darkhorse 50mm clinchers, 6.62kg with pedals. Just under 7k/kg for what I spent bought 2nd hand (except the wheels -new).

Seems like Linden Cycles are your guys!

04h30 to 7am rides 3 or 4 times during the week. Riding with a group makes it easier. Must say winter is tough to get out the front door! Enter the Jock for some added winter motivation.

There's certainly something there for everyone. Green, blue and black sections well marked. Some of the black stuff is quite technical. Even a "broken ribs" jump section! Loads of single track!

Same here. WTF??

Cool bike stand that!

Couldn't have said it better. Carbon Flash 29er FTW

Yuup! Can also vouch for Tombeej - he knows great road routes too. Time to start that bike tours buisiness Tom

I thought the fact that he donated $125000 to the UCI was extremely dodgy. First time I've heard that and he admitted it. Donations to the body that controls and tests you - very suspect. Shame on LA and the UCI.

I have ordered from CRC before.

Wow, awesome photos!!

I'm starting in 'A', 30 - 39 yrs.

Amen to that! We had 2 DOA's at my practice last week due to feeding of bones.

Thanks Kingalton, will give it a bash (klap?) this weekend.

saw this on advendurance web site. Alternative/cut-off route for 106km marathon riders: 1hour 30minutes after the first rider starts the steep rocky climb on the rhino farm (15kms before the half-way mark), riders will be forced to ride the easier, more scenic but longer alternative route. All riders arriving within the 1hour30 minute time will be forced to cross the mountain

Agree 100% Excellent idea on adding Klapperkop to the route!!
