anyone know if they open yet - i dont have any emails from them stating operating days/times as yet so can only assume still closed...?

Please pm me the cost and booking details etc

so my epic partner and I are heading down to ballito on 26th to 2nd - even though its holiday we taking our bikes and wanna hit holla trails - Im keen to organise a ride or 2, easy going "base" training stuff...PM me if interested

I want to buy a new front fork with a thru axle - currently running the 9mm front skewer thru my tune hub - where can I get this adapter - my local bike store has already closed for the year :-(

photos are out on action photo

It has finally happend - Garmin and discovery have aligned so that you can earn points from your recorded activities on your device....better late than never!! http://garmin.co.za/news.php?newsid=135

I'm doing it as training for epic...at this stage it is worthwhile. Looks like it will be wet and muddy - any recommendations for tyre choice? Currently on RR but they not so good in mud?!

Yeah plz tell me what the bike is spec'ed with

righht thats it - i going to dope to, seems everyone and there cat except me is doing it - anyone have a link to a online store, any specials on epo?

mmmm.....I wonder how much wood and woodchuck could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

Anyone know where results will be posted?

what are the chances we see a response in any form or nature to this?

if you have already collected your entry but did not scan your race board do you have to do this before the race - i have not done this on any of the other events and got an official finish but was told I had to this time?

no mediums and i was there 20min ago.... I now get told that I have to scan my board at every race....is this new requirement, upto now I have not needed to and have got my results? now have to mission on saturday before race to get my board scanned

im in....on a side note - the road race(Bestmed Jacaranda Satellite Classic) is on at the same time...traffic to VG could be a bit of nightmare

gonna be good - did the 106 crater cruise as prep....hopefully does me in good stead!!

really no rain yet? Im in jhb and its almost a mud fest here....?!

for a quick sprint nothing better....does lack proper climbing and technical sections but just 15min from my house - im not complaining!

she should consider the 27.5 and dual

Bottlenecks.....? The bane of mtb races these days....

im doing epic and am ramping up my training from Oct....does anyone think its a good idea to do this as part of training. Obviously not a focus and never done it before but would be something nice to do to break up the riding a bit?

is there a route profile avaialble?

im not scared to have a steers burger - but to answer ur question yes he is skinny, im alot more muscular than he is.....

very good point - I am a south paw and we same height

HI All - I have "friendly debate" raging with a mate..... I weigh in at 87kg's....my friend weighs in at 73kg both of us are in pretty good nick, we ride mtb and road, do events, train in the gym and essentially 5-6 times a week we are training or riding. The question is who should win in a race? be it road or mtb? terrain I'm sure will play a role as will distance and vertical gain. both bikes(mtb) are highly spec'ed although one is a 29er hard tail(for me the heavier guy) and the other 26 is a dual sus.(the 29er is lighter than the dual sus) Both road bikes are also highly speced. As mentioned above - should the 73kg guy always win all things being equal? and if not where do you see the advantages/disadvantages one way or the other.....
