  1. Thanx guys! *Chilli grinning from ear to ear, taking a bow*... What a wonderful early birthday/christmas present!! Such a big reward for such a little contribution.
  2. What??!! Yay!!! Whoohoooo!!!! Bugger... that means I've got to enter.... hehehehe!! What am I saying??!! Thanx a GAZILLION!!!
  3. Congratulations!!
  4. What to say about Letsatsi: I thoroughly enjoyed the trip. It's quite a distance from Pta, but isn't this what cycling is about? Especially mtb'ing? Getting to see and experience places you've never been before? Accommodation was top-notch! Affordable & luxurious in one sentence?! Yes. I totally misjudged the weather, and it was heaven to get to the chalet to find that someone had been in already, and turned the bedsheets and switched on the hot blanket! The organisation was great, the route was awesome. Not easy at all, but also not so technical that I (zero technical skills & blue thing..) couldn't handle it.. although the blue thing did manage to notch another fall.... I looked back to see how far behind Michael was and rode into a hole... nice chainring tattoo on ankle now... Entry fee minimal, prize money enormous! ... only I didn't think to find out beforehand... otherwise maybe I would've raced... Oh, and the MC was brilliant! Also met a couple of hubbers there! Sorry guys, can't remember all the names, but it was really nice to meet you!! So, in conclusion: I would recommend this race to anyone & everyone!
  5. ITEC was the main sponsor of the event and had three of their own riders doing the 35km for the fun of it! Well done guys! Hehe... the middle dude only got told on the Monday before the event that he was going to ride 35km on a bicycle!! I rode most of the race with a lady called Samei and this little dude: Michael. 10years young and a very determined lad! He dropped many an old guy on the uphills and suprised me everytime with his guts! Well done Michael!
  6. Around 5km into the race I decided to stop and admire the view.. I thought the Freestate was all flat! Sorry, the photos just don't do justice.. After missing a turnoff (I was chatting to a fellow lady-rider, Samei), we ended up on top of a ridge overlooking the route. Even though we had to turn back, it was worth the detour!
  7. Some photos taken while "racing" the 35km Letsatsi mtb challenge. The view from the chalet - Please note: Photos taken with a cellphone. Registration - the photos do not do justice to the mach 2 wind blowing... The view from registration
  8. Anyone else having problems with the online entry system?? Don't know what to do anymore..
  9. Fandacious, what about Jelly?
  10. Hey!!! You can't talk about me behind my back! Passing me to and fro like a soccer-ball!! WW doesn't want to ride with me again Fatty, she says she wants to be in control!
  11. Yay!! The Argus accommodation is MINE!!! ... Now the only question remaining: how do I get there...
