Mr SingleTrack

can i join the "cant-afford-a-canondale-but-still-want-one" club?

i can't wait for this weekend! damn this race is gonna be fun!

I am sooo telling the next project manager (to do the above) that instucts me to do a deep dive...

things are hotting up in here... I like it thx for the entertainment guys

so are you now saying you were a tool? :-PLol, don't worry bud, we all go through things like this some time or another

Sounds like it could be a nice race...

no way in hell i'll allow my kid to use all this crap

Peanut butter samies, altyd lekker

we always enter as solo riders so that we can ride together and chill together. Much more fun than being alone on the trail. But then again, we are yet to go for a win...

giving this one a skip

Like Karma said, you don't have to ride the full 12 hours. Ride untill you are tired. Braai with friends and drink a beer or 3, jump back on your bike and ride another few laps. At the 24hour in December last year we had a Drinking Team with a Cycling Problem doing the race (yep, a bunch of hubbers)

I will be there (unless the apocalypse cows call in a training day as that takes 1st priority) Saturday 27 October Delta Park School and Delta Park, Blairgowrie, Randburg R120 per rider - Solo and Team Categories 9am -3pm

great training for your double century...

Quantity and quality all in one go (lots and good MTB, same goes for beer if you so please...)

+1

I saw how they walked in the olympics. Its more like hip REplacement once they are done if you ask me!

got my 12 hour solo entry and ready to go

that sounds about right... :-P

I am not saying you should be a weight weenie, but look at the weight of the Titan before you decide. We had one guy join our group ride on a Carbon Titan (not sure which model) with full XT and his bike came in at 13.5kg (he had light tyres etc so that was not the problem). IMHO a carbon HT with full XT should not come near 13.5kg!

I had the same many years back. I reduced my training a little and it went away. since then i've had no problems, no matter how hard i go...

I am so doing that dance as my victory dance at 3 towers after crossing the finishing line every day!

...like a boss! Rouxtjie you can tell I like the video right?

+1 for USN Recovermax. I am not the biggest fan of USN since most of their other products that I have tried does not seem to do anything for me. However Recovermax seems to work well for me though

yes you can. contact the race office...

it soungs like you were scammed.... like a Boss!
