    I got one on my spare wheel. Its ok on hard pack but I found its very twitchy on the loose stuff and on High speed fire roads, oh and dont ride it in the wet. Also bought cause it was cheap.

    6 Weeks to go. Crazy excited about this trip, just a little concerned about luggage issues with Emerates.

    Howzit man Yeah, just got flight prices and waiting accomodation info. Looking real good and we are super keen.

    We are so spoiled for choice in tygerberg, we have around 20 bike shops within a 10km radius. It's pretty crazy if u think about it. Good luck with the venture.

    U should get some decent downtube protection if u plan on running the citius up front, that tire picks up lank stones and throws it straight at your frame.

    All canis tires I've seen have had canvas showing and tearing on the sidewalls

    Was a real good event, enjoyed it immensely. Was great passing the refreshment station twice for some well needed energy.

    U got me chasing trail. The series really motivates me to take the bike out and ride. Awesome setting for a backdrop. If I'm ever up that side I'd definitely tap that trail.

    Yeah the price has become a bit of an issue, it's double what I paid to race in kzn last year. Come on dirtopia, drop your prices a bit. At this pricing we going to have to get picky with events to attend when wpge release their dates, which is bad for both parties. I hate to see what next year brings...... we may start seeing more private races popping up.

    I'm definitely psyched about the season. Apparently he's cutting a new first stage so hopefully he does away with the old short rocky stage, it is just a little too short to use. I think that a reccy mission is required if u wanna push it on the day, I was out there a week ago and it was riding great. I may make a mission out that way on friday afternoon.

    Hey, at least they give u a sticker pack with the purchase. I just get so bummed when you see a nice bike, then inquire about the price and have your heart broken. I am sometimes to embarrassed to ask for prices in stores, i dont want to be THAT guy but i suppose i am not alone.

    I think the competition should be renamed to "Best Looking Bike" Seems they are being judged on the looks and specs and not the actual ability of the bike.

    is that 76.8K for an alloy bike?

    I gave this one a skip, but it looks like a great coarse. I do agree that the timing has to be sorted out which is a major part if not the whole race. It seems every race has timing issues. they seriously need to break free from the common denominator in this instance and move to a different system as it is really getting to a point that they are going to lose the riders who support them. The photo's look great and makes me a little sad i did not enter. I am really keen to see what time system the guys in Durban are using.

    I saw that one earlier, there is a also a guy on there selling reconditioned engines for them and beetles. I have been considering getting a panel van to do some epic touring adventures. We may only live once
