Mike Bike

just put your 29er into an easy gear and trundle up them slowly.....easy peasy

pushing is not allowed...thats why you have a granny gear...

i will still be there to cheer you on...and have my jaeger bomb

it is with much sadness that i have to give up my entry on the advice of my doc....half marathon, pm if you need it. payment in beer

he is training for berg and bush next weekend

unfortunately that stretch is the only way to get to VG.. i would stay away from the dam wall, its only 1 way traffic and with all other roads in the area busy you might get stuck

you need to check your seeding on saseeding.co.za. then there is an explanation in this thread how the batches are worked out using the seeding values. bear in mind that the batches are much smaller for this event, so its highly likely you will drop a group or 2

its about 1 inch by 1 inch, goes in the bottom right of your no board

i did the same for ages...no problems. but then stuck a xking on front, seems more grippy in the corners. could just be mental..

most people run race king rear and x king front from what i can tell

you should have had it by now. but your seeding sticker will be in the envelope you get at registration. thats all you need really

ya the plug kits are great, also take some stans sealant. the best patches are the green self stick ones...but you must also carry a tube. make sure it has no punctures in it!!

pity you cant get there by boat!!!

vinny, go rustenburg highway...take the pta west off ramp, then the r513(past where voriberg starts.) keep going til t junction, turn right, at sasol turn left. follow that road over the 4 ways stop til you get to VG

does sound excessive...what kit have you got on your bike? just take the basic spares with you. tyre stuff, stans, chain tools and links, lube, unless you have a mishap you should be ok..

ive also never done this race before.....but im led to believe its a very relaxed race...look forward to meeting you!!

check the classifieds...there are a couple entries for sale..

ha ha snap on VG. as long as you arent looking to win first time out youll be fine

definitely take a spare with you...and carry many bombs, tubes( make sure they are unpunctured) patches and pump. ( this from experience @ mankele )

doesnt matter, your seeding sticker will be in the envelope you collect at registration

seems to be working for me..gone up 2 groups again. seeded b now!

holy crap thats bollocks...there is a problem..

nooooooooooooooooooooooooo im saying you are tall like me

behind welding glasses maybe not...and you arent the smallest oke either

easy...you the guy with the punctured tubes...
