70km... have you guys seen the profile? The last 10km in the river bed seems to be missing...or is it just me?

Not to bad when i am on bike...just doesnt feel like I can go flat out with my right leg...

Thanks dale....

Hi all I picked up a injury in May 2012. Hamstring tendon was very irritated and a slight avulsion..Went on for a month before I went to doc. Booked me off for 4 weeks and anti-inflammitory meds for a month, and 2 shots of cortisone in the problem area... My nerve though(peroneul Nerve I think its called) still hurts. Can't even do a leg curl in the gym. Any advise? Or have anyone else had the same injury?

I just wondered about the same thing recently..I am going to test ride the pyga oneten for 7 days starting saturday..currently on a 26er hardtail...looking forward to ride a 29er full susser... will keep you posted. expecting the 29er to be more comfy but a bit slower through the technical single tracks..

I am On the race waiting list.... Did get a confirmation email saying I am on waiting list.keeping fingers crossed..

Die race is op my kalender vir 2013...Geniet dit!!

Great qeustion! Personally I love to test/push my limits...been cycling for a year now. Always had a bike but never trained. Am a tennis coach and love individual sport. Can't blame anyone else but yourself.. Kinda love that about cycling.. I don't compete against others, but race against myself. If I happen to beat some guys doing that, well then thats also just fine! Best of all is that I get to do what I love in outdoors..Gods gift to us..nature....

They are busy upgrading the web service.. I think it will run better once the upgrade is done!

Dont look at your provincial rating...no longer in use...look at your national one only....

Agnee... knew it was only a matter of time since that car was stolen a couple of weeks ago. Take extra care guys..

As far as i know they use your best 3 results of the past 2 years.... my rating was in the lower 30s last time i checked. Would have started batch E tomorrow...would that be about right???not riding though, due to injury....nissan trailseeker I started in D batch and did a 2:48. Bumped down to E....??

Go to dr philda de jager at hpc pretoria to get opinion.if you need op, I think daan du plessis is the go to guy....

Keep.us posted Bos!!!!

Did sani2c on 26er hard tail.. Nailed the single tracks..29ers seems to struggle with handling and climbs..On rolling hills,flats and easy down hills they are a lot faster.. Handling on 26er is better in my opinion. Ask everyone that did nissan trailseeker tyger valley with 29ers...I would love to go 29er dual sus if handling was as goos as 26er....

I am sticking with 26 wheels...just need some advice on wich ones....thanx everyone!

Ok..jis laaik. Visiting england and scotland soon. maybe order from CRC....

Yes..sorry.brakes..lekker vrystaat

Are they any good?

Thnx....any suggestions on wheels?

Hi all I own scott scale 50 hard tail. I enjoy the bike. Its got shimano non series brakes wich I don't enjoy. The dt swiss 4450 wheels also feels heavy. Will it make a difference to upgrade to slx brakes and a new wheel set like xt,filcrum or easton?? I ride marathons,xc and the odd stage race...

Thanks guys...really helps...can one test ride bikes??i live in east of pretoria..

90-100% Explosive power Lactate producing sets lactate tolarance sets overloading stamina sets 85-90% Thershold endurance sets 70-85% Basic endurance does this help. Actually looking these things up in my varsity handbooks....did my honors in sport science @ nwu... Good to refresh my mind also... As soon as i get rid of flu, i am gonna use these more intensly...

Ok..so a dual sus is slower bit more comfy...does a dual sus offer any other advantages other than comfort. Down hill ability and single track ability? I can sacrifice comfort for performance....
