Consider the bottle a gift. I hope it played a huge part in getting you to the finish Well done.

I left Cape Town at 04;45 to get there in time to register etc and be ready to race at 8, for my race to last all of 5mins with me hitting a rock and smashing my front rim on that mad downhill in the dust of the riders in front of me. Oh well, there's always next year. Spent the rest of the morning driving around the course supporting everyone with a few mates who came along for the day. What an Epic event.

Custom all the way. So incredibly satisfying riding a bike built to your measurements and specifications. David Mercer built this Columbus steel framed gravel bike for me, as well as a custom steel fork. I sourced the build-kit and Jared at BMC did the paint job exactly as I imagined. I could not be happier with the bike. I love it. Sram Apex 1x11 groupset with hydrauylic disc brakes Easton wheelset Panaracer 43c gravelking tyres

FYI for those following this thread. I just took delivery of a SRAM Apex 1x11 groupset, ordered from www.bike-components.de without issue in just over a week, and just had to pay the VAT on pick-up from the post office.

That colour? Awesome!

Yes, lefty fork is just fantastic on the Tallboy.

I want to ride this bike like this.

My dream bike, and it's mine.

These are great wheels, and the price seems good, considering they're 'ready to roll'. I'm gonna get some black ones for my singlespeed.

Nice one. Burry and Sauser won in a sprint from Evans and George, with the Bulls team of Bohme and Dietsch in 3rd. 2;42

Yip...just entered today. Riding with my Epic Partner who is coming down from JHB. Thought it might be good to first spend 3 days riding together before we do som for 8 days.

Yes man! That new Jet 9 looks amazing!!!!! Also love the Niner brand.

For you skeptics, buy this deal and go check out the Bike Park for very little: http://www.wicount.co.za/?productid=TOYOTACYCLE Enjoy the riding.

Awesome ride this morning with an unbelievable turnout. The Caffe Pronto at the Blockhouse was a winner, as was the Bos iced tea. Thanks Kandui!

I got one of these too...but no other confirmation. What gives?
