Bump! anybody ?

Hi All, I saw this event being listed on www.waterpoint.co.za. Has anybody done this before? What to expect? As i'm looking for easy races for my wife to do. Saturday 17 March 2012 SAAF Association Fun Day MTB Zwartkop Air Force Base . Gauteng 20km http://www.entrytime.com/index.asp?GoTo=EventInfo&EventID=3409 Thanks, Robert

Did a ride there yesterday with my wife and we really enjoyed it. Excellent track, despite me blowing a tire. Will definitely go and ride again.

I would also like to know.. anybody ?

Herewith a quick run down for MTB Categories, have a look at this link. Nipper Boys 10 and under NB Sprog Boys 11-12 SB Sub Junior Boys 13-14 JB Youth Men 15-16 YM Junior Men 17-18 JM U23 Men 19-22 UM Senior / Elite Men 19-29 SM Sub Vet Men 30-39 SV Vet Men 40-49 VM Master Men 50-59 MM Grand Master Men 60 and over GM http://www.cyclingsa.com/Downloads/SA%20MTB%20Racing%20Categories%20V5%20%28DOC%205%29.pdf

That is the incorrect link as the company that took the photos were called "photmarx" you can find all the photos here: http://www.photomarx.co.za/products/mtb_races/crazy_croc_mtb

Any ideas as to when we will be able to view the photos ? And where ?

It seems that there will be a race on 11 Feb at the krugersdorp reserve: I got the info from the cyclelab website. Category: Mountain Biking Events Event Date: 11 February 2012 Entries Close: 8 February 2012 at 23:00 Venue: Krugersdorp Game Reserve Province: Central Gauteng Distance: 40km (R150), 20km (R100), Starting Time: 08:00 Timed By: Spectrum Sport Timing

26" Giant Revel 0 HT - serves me well as I've only been riding for a year, but I reckon the upgrades would start to appear soon

:drool: Would be awesome if they are open, as I would to go and try some new tracks!

Hi, It's a good bike - I bought my wife a similar one last year. What are you basing your decision on to buy a Titan? Did you shop around for other brands, or maybe even look for a good spec 2nd hand bike here on the hub.

If someone can provide me with a xls or text file with all the races I will gladly create the outlook calendar file.

Hi, For some stupid reason I'm unable to find ANY photos on their website; nevermind even trying to find a photo of myself. Would anybody know if they just take their time to upload the photos to their webserver ? If so when would one be able to search for photos. Thanx, Robert

This sucks... now what about us working folk.. can we comp and get the saturday/sunday ?

Have a look at the Giant Revel 0 as well. Giant Revel 0 I bought the Revel for myself and my wife's got the Merida (TFS 100-D)

Would that be R5900 per bike ?

hmm... I don't have patience.

Hi Everybody, I saw an ad for a new cycle shop called: "The sports basement" has anybody been there ? As the website still doesn't seem to work and I haven't been able to get to Woodmead. www.thesportsbasement.co.za Thanx, Robert

Awesome!! Will be there. :clap:

Has anybody been out to this track/trail in the past month - is still open ? As we are looking for some other trails/routes in the Pretoria area.

I had the same sort of experience! (buying a piece of land) - It carried on for about a month and I finally went to the physio and he said it was a muscle that stiffened on impact; thus the pain when trying to lift your arm above should height. It might be worth it to go to the physio, my shoulder is now a lot better (2 months down the line) but still not 100%

Brilliant!

Let the shopping begin!! Congrats the new site looks good!

"drooling" on the twitter page it seems that they will be going live at 14.00

Now this is great news, another new trail to go and play in. What sort of cost are we looking at? And how long is the route now? We will be coming through on sunday!
