Smolly

Few hills in the first half, then fast and flat! Unless they have made some major changes to the route. Will fish and find out.

Took me a few good rides to get use to it, and now, I will never go back. Give it time!

Its my valley (home) so doing a "secret" mtb warm up ride on Saturday for those who are keen to join. Easy, slow, and scenic 30km

I wasn't able to make it, but its great what you all did! Well done, hope to join next time.

Good luck folks! Hope you packed your OBS

If you have a spot on your cold sack, go see a doctor!

Wait till next year! Sorted! Topic closed!

The dry weather in the northwest has been terrible! All the dust makes my shoes dirty!

No long weekend for me, so not travelling to the oos runt until the weekend. Sorry Maxxis and Slick, the force was not with me on this one!

Great thanks! I'll PM you once I'm 100% confirmed!

Looks like the Smolster is in! I'm in for 80km, but will be travelling from the Oos Rand as I will be for visiting peoples there, or alternatively I can shoot straight from Sun City in the morning. Where are these places you guys are mentioning? Will my car be safe?

No expert on drs, but would maybe avoid a useless trip to a GP and head straight to an emergency room. They seem to be a bit more multifuctional. So, a bit of a hi-jack. So I went for a cycle this afternoon after a 3 week break due to a business trip. When I arrived home, with some kit in hand, tried to open my sliding door with one finger. So I pull on the handle and suddenly something popped in my hand and wrist. Result: very sore and week hand. Think it might be a tendon, but will wait and see, and if necessary, emergency room.

I think we have to!

Mike, are we going to enter the marathon?

We all know our bodies! So if it doesn't feel rite at all, rather see a doc before you get back on your bike. If it feels like bruising, get back on your bike! Fine print: I am not a doctor

I'm gonna join the club and crack an ice cold one now, but I won't join in on the abuse/opinions.

Its a Friday, so I think the beer came out a bit earlier then normal!

So they don't enjoy a "turd burglar". Makes sense.

Use to bank at Absa, and here's my story SO, my magnetic strip on my card stopped working one december, i was on leave, so was dressed in slops, t shirt and had not shaved for an extended period of time and was possibly hung over. So i went into a branch asking for assistance and was treated like ****. So in then first week of Jan, I went to Nedbank looking almost the same as i did at absa, I said I was there to open an account and was asked to take seat. All the consultants were busy, the a lady approached me and asked if she could help me, and I advised that I might want to open an account and she led me to her office and assisted me! This lady was the BRANCH MANAGER. That first impression has stuck with me and i have only received good service since then.

So riders at the back of the group , ride with your mouth closed

Book me as tentative! I might be heading to Lindani for the weekend! Which is pure MTB paradise!

Loving my SLRs.
