Last chance.......

I hear you.... must say, maximum respect to Nico for pulling her that hard! I've ridden with Nico on a occasion and he's a freakin yster!!!

Hi I'm looking for a couple of people to join me for a breakfast ride (mtb) on saturday. Route will start in Durbanville, depending of who's joining the difficulty level of the ride will be adjusted. J

I also believe that cyclist are being exploited due to there obsession with the sport..... what makes completely zero sense for me is how the most expensive road bike cost almost double than the most expensive mtb???? I mean: Shocks, disc breaks.........

Start time is 8AM 4th April. Yes. I have space for those who want to come on the friday evening for a braai and a kuier if they want. J

I took a look, and some of it is burnt and some not, will still be ride-able though, other wise we do jonkershoek.....

I know this is short notice, but I'm coming to the cape and its high time for a group ride. MTB, start at Coetzenburg Stellenbosch at 7:30. Will be doing Eden and Coetzenburg, and more for those who want to. Maybe coffee in between. J

From Cape Town city centre about 160km, about 130km from durbanville or stellenbosch. J

Hi all I know it's some time since I started cycling to ask this question, but I gave it some thought while washing my cycling vest this morning..... What is the proper way to wash your cycling kit? I've been hand washing my clothes with washing powder in cold water. Is this correct, or can you wash with hot water? Also, is there a difference in washing of my bib's and shirts? Eg: Can I say wash my shirts with hot if I cannot wash my bib with hot water? Please advise..... J

Op 'n ernstiger noot, daai is 'n baie nice frame! Ek dog jy is net gespesialiseerd? of is dit vir iemand anders?

Onetime.... as ek daai mat so kyk neem ek aan jy was in Brackenfell...... of het ek die kat aan die gat beet?

Wanneer is die vigne a vigne? Ek moet 'n slag weer 'n race doen, en die vlge een wat op my rooster is is die 100miler...... Races aside: JULLE HUBBERS MOET 'N DRAAI OP CERES KOM MAAK, WHENEVER!

Gaan nie 18 april kan doen nie..... my beste buddy trou dan, heel dag afere.... en ek trou 25 april..... maar ja, enige naweek is julle welkom, gooi my met 'n pm

Ok, hier volg my volgende voorstel: Na klagtes van Lilo en marius..... Almal wat nie 4 april kan kom nie, is welkom 5 april...... Geen rede hoekom ek nie 2 keer op 'n naweek kan ry nie..... Laat weet!

Fitness level not a big issue..... If we are only a few guys, we stick with the slower guys. If we are enough, we split into different fitness level groups. J

For the first couple of guys/gals who wanna come for this ride, they can stay at my place the friday night if coming the saturday morning is a problem, then we can hold a lekker braai the friday night. J

Still no confirmations....... jeeze!!

*BUMP* Is anybody able to confirm joining yet?

I saw some at Willie Engelbrecht in Bellville.....

Hi all This Sunday I fell quite badly in the mountains.... leaving my knee somewhat injured.... I didn't think much of it, and it didn't pain while I was walking and doing everyday stuff on monday and tuesday, but yesterday when I got on my bike again I found something was definetily off!!!! Sharp pain on the outside side of my knee as I lift my knee in my pedal stroke.... This morning my knee is very stiff..... Besides staying of the bike for a while, is there any advice regarding anti - inflammatory medicines you can give? Want something to quicken the recovery process...... have a 100miler to practice for, so don't want to lose too much time....

The routes are very well marked, I don't have gps routes for the tracks.... Entry for the farm is free, was R20 but an unfortunate incident made the owner change to free, but no responsibility on the owner....... (at least that is the information I have, so don't use this as law)

For those not in the know..... Eselfontein is a farm 15km outside Ceres with 3 mtb loops, with about 80% singletrack..... 3 different loops: 24km/40km/70km Varying types of terrain.... from indiginous forrest to karoo to orchards..... Very good quality track!

Yip, we can swim, but I suggest that we go on a seperate ride afterwards to the mountain pools...... idillic for swimming!!!

Updated the post, time and date now included.... As stated, to ride at Eselfontein Farm. J
