Hi Tim - Wanted to enter my son - born 97 into half marathon, but will only accept him for 20ks? Is this correct or can he do half marathon and get points etc, or only 20ks for that age grroup?

How much/little are u guys cycling this week?

Did this ride and Tokai forest with my mate this AM!!!!!!!!!!! Mama mia - but is fantastic!!!! 1000m climbing in first 20k's - we definatelyy do not have this in Pretoria!!!!!

Thanx a million - how far when combining all the trials?

Hi - Anybody been there lately and have info on trail lengths etc?

Where do we find results etc?

You can buy a whole kit, I was also told to replace mine, but I took tem apart and cleaned and greased them - good as new!!!!!!!!!! and have done nearly 2000k's since then!!!!

What about veteran and light?

Or which of these two would be better buy for normal mtb, marathons, stage races and the odd cross country race? From what I can see the Scott frame is much lighter, but components on Stumpy better - better to buy Scott for frame to upgrade later?

Hi Guys - Some advice please? I am considering buying 29er - I like the Scott as I currently have Scott Spark 26er. I do the normal MTB riding - Mostly dirt roads, all the local Gauteng XC races and a little cross country? Also do a stage race once a year or so. I am not sure if I should go HT or FS? Views and opinions?

My 2 cents worth - Also cramp a lot - I started mixing Rehydrat (half a packet) into my race drink and that has definately done the trick!!!!!

Where do we find more info - Entry, categories etc?????????

Hi Guys - What weight are these bikes? - Real life weight?

What sort of times will F group do?

Any views on which one is best - or pro's and cons of either?

What would you suggest if you have R 2500 to R 3000 to spend on upgrading MTB wheelset?

Dual suspension - open roads, both similar specs and weight!!!

I ride a Scott Spark 26er and have my buddies Giant 29er on loan for two weeks to test on my usual routes and see if all the hype is true!!!First ride results from this morning - Did Same 36km route at same low intensity 119 bpm as with my 26er - Result was 2 minutes faster - or 2% improvement same route same effort!!!

Baie dankie

Hi - My Garmin Edge 800 has now on three occoasions jumped thousands of KM's while riding - Going from say 23km distance to 4798 and then continues to count!! It did it twice in Ntal at Hula trails and the again this morning in Lynwood PTA Anyone else ever experienced similar issues?

Silly question - Where is Thaba trials?

What are the spec comparison like?

Hi - I had the same issues of running out of steam after 40k's and started doing the following - really works!! - I take a camel pack full of water - I take one bottle filled with 4 to 6 scoops of GI32 depending on duration (2 scoops per 2 hours) - Drink a mouthfull every 30 minutes and dilute with water from camel pack - I drink one bottle G1 32 before race start - I eat on longer rides (3h30 and longer) 1/3 rd energy bar every 30 minutes - I take gells with but have never really needed them Hope this helps

How far is Willowmore from Pretoria?
