A pure roadies mountain bike race, lots of open district and tar road, bunch riding etc, so cannot really be compared to other mountain bike races in my opinion like Sani or 3 towers or berg and bush etc. It was a good tome out on the bike though, just shy of 400km's and just over 6000m of climbing (very different to their advertised figures), but again, first year, so good effort by the organisers I think. Food was good, campsites were brilliant. Would I do it again, probably, if they add more single track and less road and cow paddocks (riding over ALOT of grass hurts!)

Going to a Tim Noakes talk / presentation tonight, CANNOT wait!! Will give you all some feedback in the morning.

Anyone have any idea when final results will be published? What sort of times were you guys riding?

So, it has come and gone, what was everyones thoughts? Heat , big climbs and bone shaking descents, it was awesome!!!

Afternoon, started our weekday training rides again, Tuesdays and THursday mornings meet at 5h15 at the FOurways Gardens BP if anyone is keen.

+1 great pic that pal!

I stay in Broadacres, send me your mail address and Ill add you to our mailing list.

That sounds like an awesome ride, got any more info? (like where the DH track is etc, general directions)

damn dude, maybe try spell check

would you be wearing socks or not?

There is a broadacres loop, around 45k's, you can do the Harties ride from Lanseria if you feel like a long one

Looks like a normal training workout? obviously only difference being the funds for charity side of it.

Gnarly came to CrossFit last night, well in bud!!!!

Richie Quan's gym, with Richard Smith?

Where?

I train at a gym in Craigavon, Fourways.

I actually do CrossFit training 4 times per week for strength training and it has helped my cycling tremendously, so wanted to see if anyone else is doing it and if they have seen the benefits. CAAD4, too old? Doubt it, crossfit training is also all about your own ability and doing it at your pace.

Anyone doing / done CrossFit training in the off season for strength and endurance, or even during the season for a bit of cross training? If so, your thoughts? did it help with your cycling / running / swimming?

huh??

Hi All, quick question to all the single speed riders out there that did the Sani this year, what were your times for day 2? Reason I ask is I smashed my derailleur start of day 2 so had to ride single spped, and it absolutely killed me! I have massive respect now for the guys that do this day in and day out. So let me know the times you did so I can see if I did okay.

Hi Guys, just wanted to find out how long does it normally take for orders from Chain Reaction to get to you? Please let me know, thinking of ordering some stuff but working on a tight deadline.

Hi all, Does anyone know apart from rollers, if there are any IDT's compatible with a thru axle MTB? PLease help, have a knee injury so cannot get out and ride for at least a couple weeks, so need to get an IDT. If you know of a brand, even better where I can buy one immediately, please let me know. Thanks.
