Hi Everyone, I am heading out to the midlands tomorrow and looking for some riding out there. Wanting to do a day or two of xc and then one or two days enduro type riding if the area offers it. Any ideas of trails around there and who to contact. Thanks!!

Eina!!

Obviously this drama has occured before. I'll just blame gps, and go old school with pen, paper and a radar gun!

Okay I will have a look by Tuesday, but the 2nd position is 30 seconds slower, and there is no ways I am faster than number 2

Hey Hubbers, So how do I delete a section on strava? I got KOM on a section in Delta park, and I am definately certain that I did not ride the section as described. The gps thought that I did it, and I cut through parts of the section, but I will not claim it, no way. Please advise.

Rode at Avianto this morning, and had to go onto the road for a bit getting lost. Was so apprehensive, and kept leaving the shoulder when cars passed. I've never been on road, and I get nervous just thinking about it.

Wow No ways. this is so unbelievably sad. a very big part of me hopes this isn't real.

Is this at Thaba?

Yeah was fantastic! First ride was on the Momsen 650, and the the PYGA 650. Absolutely loved them both. Also rode the 150mm Morewoods which was good fun. Can see a place for them once the downs get a bit heavier. Struggled on the 29'ers to be honest. Not really my cup of tea. I ended up changing my ethnicity though! Man it was muddy!

Is the event going ahead with this rain?

Fantastic race all around! Haven't been on so much single track even on some 100km races. Well done organisers!

Got an email from the organiser saying we can enter on the day.

Assuming the 40km starts at 08h20?

The Spruit is great, especially the top forest section in Emmerentia. It all depends on the speed that you tackle various trails. Take it easy, and when you get a bit more comfortable, start pushing yourself.

Did the 40k yesterday as well. At the 30km mark I felt like I could feel every blade of grass in my body. Was it just me or is this one of the tougher races. Haven't done many, but compared to Trailseeker 3, I think this is much harder?

I recevied my seeding email after picking up my board etc from the shop. If you entered, should be there.

Any news on registration info? Still nothing on seeding etc?

Yeah no point really is there. This is my first ever subscription to a mag, and was super excited to get it before anyone else but alas. Maybe I'll get mine in June

Does anyone know if tread mag is out yet? I still havent received my copy this month. Once again its super late.

I'm getting the bike next week, so once the fitting etc is done, I will give my feedback from the various shops and what the different angles is that each of them is spinning. Thanks for the feedback so far.

Hey Tumbleweed, Thanks for the reply. I'll try and make sure that it all sits well, and with as much advise as I can get just hope I make a good choice. They don't have a model from the same year, but maybe one up, so I will ask. Cheers!

Hey everyone, I am looking at getting a new bike, and the one that I have found is the last one in the shop. It is a 16inch, and I am 1.74m tall. I have been getting very contradictary advice. Guys at the shop say it is fine, and it feels fine, but then I had another measurement today, and I was told to go for a Medium( 17-18inch) Also did the whole online calculator job, and that works out to roughly 15-16 inch. It is pretty damn tough to get a solid answer when you have little experience. So now I'm a bit stuck. Any advice would be great?? Cheers

Hi Guys, Likewise, I have started a new subscription for the March issue, and I have seen the mag out in the shops, but nothing in my box. Hopefully it is coming soon
