Hope the wrist isn't broken :-(
Get better fast
Really great to hear so many awesome weight loss stories! Keep it up, all of you!
Not really
Booked into opital at Mikes bikes for Monday morning tho for its annual major **** shave and shampoo
Gonna cost a bomb.Just stuffed up 2 weekends of riding
Hope it fixes all the problems. I have changed shops to Cycle Fusion, also where my ride partner works.
God its around the corner and my bike died this weekend.
Fork seals blown.Oil all over as well as my freewheel is not freewheeling velly well.
Oh hell! Sorry to hear this! Do you have options to get it repaired up there?
Slowbee, it's an awesome race, and a friendly country, and the riding's great, and, and, and!
Kranswurm, I'll be in touch with Jason's details.
Thanks everyone for the comments and offers. My friend Jason has successfully applied for a temporary passport so he will be going with me. Really looking forward to the race!
Aah Stick !
Ja I'm game for the swap....trouble is my ex says I need to see a doctor for my snoring
You know of course you each have your own tent
Bwahahahaha! Sorry Kranswurm, you may be warmer than a hot waterbottle, but you're OUT!!
Hey the nice thing about dad coming up anyway is that he can help us set up camp and break it down! Awesomeness!
Howzit MichH
Look forward to seeing you
You staying with Nev and Kim?
Have not received that confirmation yet.
He he.....I don't get cold like a waterbottle
We should swap tent partners, my dad snores 
Nope, don't speak to Nev any more, staying with Broomie on Friday night. The cost of which is a couple of bottles of good ol' SA red wine 
You must admit that that was just about the most original goodie bag item ever B)
Most useful ever!!
Here are some pics to whet the appetite?
trying to smoog for 2 hot waterbottles...........
That's aiming low, if you schmooze him well enough, you may get Kranswurm as the hot waterbottle 
HEY Kranswurm! Paid my entry today and sent you proof! Now we just have to find me a ride partner!
And it was not even that difficult . I did the same and also got the info I needed . But we did it wrong , first go and shoot your mouth of on a public forum before you go and find out what is going on . Typical .
Aaah, I missed you guys!!
Gabs is 3h30 drive...........try share the driving costs.
And my dad is willing to drive us up and drive us home on Sunday afternoon so a chauffeured trip nogal :-)
Sho, cost to get to the race will be the problem with this one for most people...
By that I assume the kind of people who frequent The Hub has worsened?? The race costs R2500 for the team i.e. R1250 each. I have free accomodation for Friday night, tented accomodation for the overnight and 3 up in the car for the way there and back (it's about 4 hours from Jhb). Not a very expensive race.
What sort of partner do you expect to get? Level of fitness etc?
At the moment, the kind who can make the race on this short notice and pay half the entry :-)
But seriously, I've done Sani2C twice, plus a couple of other stage races, Dusi Mfula, KalChal, Berg & Bush Descent. I have a 5.5 inch dual sus and I love riding technical trail. Not the fastest, ride a 40km singletrack loop in Honeydew in about 3 hours.
I would suggest if you're serious, that we do a ride together to see if we have a similar pace etc.
Hi all
Haven't been onto the site in absolutely ages!
I find myself in a situation. Dad and I have ridden the Kalahari Challenge twice and have entered again for this year. But he has just found out that his thyroid is overfunctioning and his blood sugar is outside normal levels. Whilst they put him on medication and get it back under control, he's not allowed to do any strenuous exercise.
Which leaves me without a ride partner for a race happening in just over a month.
So if there is anyone who wants to race with me (read: ride fast but not out to win prizes), please let me know and we can make a plan to meet, ride together, etc.
The race is on the weekend of the 24-25th July and as it is in Botswana you need a passport (I guess if there's any reason that you can't leave the country, say an outstanding courtcase, you're excluded chuckle!)
Costs for the race is low, the riding is awesome, I'm a nice person (grin!). Let me know!
... oh' date=' and a freedomchallenge-tourer-adventure-racing-friend is gonna be there the long weekend - he hasn't cycled there, do i need to put you in touch just in case you're there the long weekend? cos michh is not there that weekend to show him around, and the master-trackbuilder is nursing an injury from freedom challenge...
[/quote']Yeah, going to Harrismith the longweekend, but need to go up to Boven again soon.Hope u have a great weekend there
Great to hear the butt is fine after all that riding.
Hey TitusTi, sorry I missed you when I was down in CT in Jan!

Nothing wrong with bling white' date=' I have 2 hahaha
