novice forever

Hectic night for the Payne brothers. Riding back and forth for 3 hours within 5kms of Diemers. They've been on the go for 22 hours.

Chatted to Martin briefly this morning. He's recovered, feeling strong and looking forward to facing his nemesis in the daylight. The doc has a mtb event at Hermanus High to get to tomorrow so I'm sure he'll join Martin.

Yes, there are complaints - try this https://www.trackreplay.co.za/ if you've been using the FC website.

2015? He had us in stitches climbing to Vuvu. "This nav stuff! I can ride fast but now I have to look down all the time ….. "

How far is the convoy section - ie: where does it end?

I think Martin is looking at the record rather than focussing on the other riders.

Martin having some fun in the Umko?

Interesting route to Vuvu this morning. Have Charles and Francis perhaps decided to forego the wonderful hospitality and head for Rhodes?

There is a basic route that stays the same. Of course erosion, weather and building sometimes necessitate change. Riders are allowed some variations as well. The Vuvu deviation is apparently an easier route. I quite like the tiger line which few opt for.

Great thread, thank you tubed!

My apologies - have placed it correctly.
