The pics are great, Thug. Thanks for being un-official photographer (and not posting any evidence of my faceplant ) I'm sure I remember us all being MUCH muddier than these pics suggest
Thug has got all the pics. I'm sure he'll put them up later. It was my first proper mtb ride and I had a few spectacular wipeouts (with lots of bruises to prove it!). Thanks to the rain last night there was enough mud to build my own mine dump when we finally made it back to the cars! We lost Hog when his rear derailleur broke and the chain modification we made left him with a chain that was too short and no gears. He got a lift with two guys who drove past and still hadn't made it back to the cars when I left!! Thanks to everyone who was there - it was fantastic to meet you all and I had a great time.
This is one of the things that I enjoyed most about riding down in Plett this week. The drivers down there are actually very considerate ( ... for the sake of inner peace I'll turn a blind eye to them laughing their asses off as I battled up those goddamn hills! ) Glad that it didn't turn out badly for you, djvr.
shaunh, it's definitely worth the wait! hr knows where I am at 4am, 1hill@atime! Contact wolverine for pricing and when he'll be placing the next order. There are more details on this https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum_posts.asp?TID=30439 thread
... to have her grubby paws on the brand spanking new Hub cycling Kit!!! Thanks to wolverine meeting me at the airport (in what must have looked like a dodgy deal at the back of the Engen ) I am now officially the first person to have the new kit! Yay me!!! Here's a sneak preview of what you're in for (taken with my phone so the quality's not great) :
Great first post,, Western Flyer. I bought my mountain bike off The Hub in March this year and can honestly say that I didn't have any of the drama that I've read about on here recently. Happy riding
