  1. Fantastic event, awesome routes, post-ride atmosphere to make memories - will definitely be back! Honestly a bargain for the price IMO โค๏ธ
  2. @SOG Ok awesome, so very competent then!! ๐Ÿ”ฅ I have done quite a number of the races around the Western Cape the past few years and some of my top one's (no particular order): The Ceder 245 - amazing route, super organisers, great crew and vibe, weekend in the Cederberg with affordable accommodation. The Goodie Bags are also worth more than the entry fee at this one The Gallows - great route, epic finale that breaks you, awesome energy. McGregor weekend is a vibe and tons of cheap accommodation. Another race where the Goodie Bags are PROPER value and the organisers are legit Swartberg 100 Miler - one of the coolest routes on the calendar, Swartberg Pass is awesome. Book accommodation early as this can be a nightmare Ceder 2 Day Trek - This is a lesser know race. Crazy value with food, accomodation and bag transport with 2 days of racing for R2500 odd. Super organisers and 2 short 80km days into the Cederberg from Clanwilliam. Your partner can also join you on the Saturday afternoon / evening - great vibes Pie Run (McGregor) - the quality of gravel is amazing and it is a short, sharp fast race. Easy to just go for the day or just the night before. Only 80km but a nice affordable throw in. The scene is exploding at the moment with new races constantly added - enjoy it!
  3. Welcome!! For context - what level of riding are you at roughly? IE. Is a 245km Ceder an option for you? I will give you some recommendations based on that.
  4. Scott are cooked, the boys are COMING!!! ๐Ÿ‡ฟ๐Ÿ‡ฆ
  5. A bigger improvement would have been starting it at a normal time where you can actually get to enjoy the views ๐Ÿ˜ถ
  6. What a cracker of a race - definitely something to put on the bucket list. Excellently organised, great GEES and super vibe all round. That climb at the end is going to leave me with some trauma for some time to come... ๐Ÿ˜‚
  7. Incomparable ๐Ÿ˜… 36One is far far tougher.... I have done my fair share of long distance races and that 36One route is brutal.
  8. YES!!! This happened to me too. Another Tinta dead over here.
  9. I am so so sorry Reinet. I followed this thread from afar and was inspired by Francois's spirit and attitude. May he RIP ๐Ÿ’”

  12. "Paul Myberg" - 084 674 5904 Scammed a gent about a surfski he was selling. I don't imagine he will be limited to just there. Be careful out there!

  16. An actual pic of Tim Dons bike at Blue Lagoon tri... heโ€™s literally cut and glued a water bottle on top of that post box. Definitely worth the 200k price tag... ????โ€โ™‚๏ธ
