  1. What happened to smile and wave .You capies are so Sensitive !With all the pretty flowers around i understand that . In Gauteng we have to fight of giraffe and smile about it .Jeez!
  2. Is that uphill or downhill water
  3. Carbon and alu size is not the same .Carbon frames are bigger .Look at the effective top tube lenght .Med carbon frame is 620mm .This is = to many other large frames and = alu large momsen frame ..A183cm rider should be fine on a med carbon
  4. I am 194cm 100kg and ride a large momsen carbon frame .These frames are big ,so a medium might fit .My other frames are 22 ' .A 17 ' will be to small .20' is your size
  5. Hi kobus .Baie dieselfde soos voriberg .40km Styl kort klim met tegniese areas .Met camelbak gaan jy regdeur ry .Genoeg parkering.My tyd laasjaar was 2h14 .Wentyd was 1h49
  6. Hi JC ! Not to take lighthearted .Everybody goes out guns blazing and bombs out early .I am considering doing on SS also
  7. Sunday will be a fun day ! 45km singletrack dash .Will the single speeders win again this year !!
  8. Not cycling ,but it counts also
  9. Yup .Got meself a proper road bike .Pinarello fsuno for R12500.Most painless auction ever .Sold about 10 bikes before anybody had a bid against them
  10. Conti protection or snakeskin tyres or similar .Lot.s of stan,s in them .Take along thick elastoplast plasters .Travel light ,the watertables are excellent .Camelbak is better than bottles .Washing line and pegs .Sunblock and hat .Rain gear .Good attitude and take photo,s.If you are a coffee snob ,rather take your own
  11. I have noticed that the races arn,t nearly as busy as last year .Magalies monster ,trailseeker ,mtn events ,eqsrta were all sold out a few weeks prior to the events last year .Only entry i still cannot get is a sani ,so now i do joberg2c instead .I prefer the smaller field anyway .Money spent .TOO MUCH and counting ! At least 50000
  12. My wife always complains about the cyclists in her way ,even when i am driving and i am a cyclist .Do you know how difficult it is to drive to avoid the cyclist and klap you wife at the same time !
  13. Why does this type of thing always happen in slaapstad .You capies live on too much credit !
  14. Thanks !! Fire eye hub and lockout fork compliments this ride
  15. My inbred 36x18 She has become my favoRide in a very short time !

    MTB girls

    She was leading the ladies solo catagory at cpt 2012 and family ,you twit?
  18. Mavic 719 rims with hope hubs has served me very well
  19. So then they have been tested enough .Epic terrain is not worst than magalies monster or sani .,just longer stages .Spend your cash on shoes with nylon soles ,so you don,t get blisters when you walk
  20. Why would,t they last if they have up to now
  21. I waited 6 month,s for the book ,but it was worthwhile .Last year was some serious lekke MTBing .There were some personal highlights that i never thought i would be able to achieve .At the time i had only been riding for 18 months .I followed your CPT training plan that is on dryland,s site and could handle everything .Every stage was filled with an amazing pass ,nature reserve section ,dirtroad racing ,watercrossings ,spectacular vistas ,Thigh pounding descents ,great waterpoins and the bikini girl,s with the sunblock .This is a must do !

    MTB Seat

    Also could not get used to sella .Used for a month ,then whent back to WTB silverado .It seems some people have flat sitting bones and some angles ones .Flat type do well on all the same and vice versa .Flat usually like silverado phenom avatar .The sella and gobi are angled more and work for the same group.
  23. More great pics on oakpics website .This is a very special event .Sitting out this year but will do next year again .All 7 days are special.Don,t be put of by the climbing .After every big climb there is a moe@#$e nice descent
  24. Get yourself a Single speed and ride them hills or rowing trainer
  25. Masters + downhill racing .Makes no sense to me !
