  1. From Jozi Trail FB page. “Jozi Trails has received the incredibly sad news that a cyclist has passed away after a fall near Victory Park. We've been in contact with the family and the details, currently available, are as follows: A father & son were riding along the Braamfontein Spruit and while crossing the stormwater drain through the dip in the trail (parallel to Dale Brook Crescent) it's believed that at the low point of the crossing his wheel washed out and he suffered a serious fall. At this stage it is assumed that he suffered serious injuries from the fall and passed away as a result. It was confirmed that the rider had not attempted the gap jump. The family has asked that we respect their privacy at this time and we will not be releasing the riders name. Our most sincere condolences go out to the family and friends of the rider and we will keep the community updated with any new information.”
  2. Hello Everyone, I have a stripped the bolt at the top of my Pro Koryak dropper post and need to find another one. I have been told that it's not the sort of thing I can buy off the shelf and I will need to have it made. Where can I have this done today? Or alternatively, does anyone know of a bike shop that might have this bolt in stock? I am currently in Hillcrest, KZN. Here's what it looks like - https://photos.app.g...n51fxJVTEHABuP7 I can't let something so small stand on the way of a holiday Giba Gorge ride!
  3. And this is the newer section mentioned above. Dropped pin near Randburg https://goo.gl/maps/RqjaK3LZdKx
  4. Try this next time you ride. This is for the top of the run in my video. Delta Tree Line 2194,, Blairgowrie, Randburg, 2194 https://goo.gl/maps/hsPXYX17yED2
  5. I can't wait to try Karkloof in December! I watch a video about it and got so excited! https://youtu.be/PIaV4d0COYA
  6. Its best to start from Sproket and Jack and ride up into Delta Park. The line runs down the fence of Delta Park, along Bantam dr, Blairgowrie.
  7. Yesterday we rode the new delta Park tree line which has been extended to run all the way from Standard drive down to the river. It was just TOOO cool! I don't know of another free, public trail that could match the amount of fun you can have on this. It even beats most private trails, and there's LOADS more to come. A huge shout out to Jozi Trails for the hard work that's gone into making this as rad as it is! Here's a highlights video of our ride too, if you're interested.
  8. We'll film it. Lets schedule a day - it'll be awesome! I assume a weekend would ve best. Suggestions welcome for a suitable date!
  9. Thats amazing, well done. I need to do that!
  10. Yes, I had it wrong in the original post. Sorry, it is the NEW Green Mile and not just The Green Mile
  11. Let us know when you do and we'll come with you! It's R80 per adult and there's some really cool riding to be done there.
  12. Ha ha ha ... leave my Colin Montgomeries out of this, BUT by my calculations that would take me to 4:52 which means I beat Migsmoreira and CLAIMED VICTORY ON THE DAY! *Walks around the office with his hands in the air for the rest of the day"
  13. Ha ha ha, I think king of anything is a stretch for me on a mountain bike!
  14. Glad you like it and the next one will be coming soon! Now where's an easy Strava time to beat... hmmm
