  1. Nope. I pay this every year rather than doing the 94.7 wich is on my doorstep. THIS IS A SPECIAL RIDE. If you are purely thinking rands and cents you should only ride Suikerbosrand - it is THE best value for money. Logistics for this is expensive!
  2. Any updates on the condition of the track?
  3. Staying away. ASG told us not to come if we don't like what they do...
  4. Same here. I enjoy the Ti bikes the most with my steel Contraband a close third.
  5. I have discovered that some of the shops in that Barber chain that mostly employs Pakistani guys, offer nose and ear waxing.... I kid you not. It isn't too painful....
  6. I think ballpark 5K to 7.5 if awesome condition . I have one but it is a 26'er
  7. There are several brands of screws....They will most likely communicate anyway.
  8. Black Oystercatcher use to have a nice map with several nice routes on it (gravel ginding mostly). Just a word of advise: Avoid cycling on the road from Bredasdop to Struisbaai during holiday season - narrow, mostly no shoulder and caravans/trailers that get pretty uncomfortabe
  9. I agree. Very good place for a starter/ newbie. As soon as you know a bit more or want specific items it is less good. As soon as you start knowing prices it becomes a terrible place...
  10. Jip. I shouldnt have commented. Deleted this first thing this morning, Too late. Please ignore my post and accept my apology.
  11. I know you are joking but for the record - the 2 days are EXACTLY the same length. You start where you finish. Day 2 is at least 15 minutes harder...
  12. When you think you are at the top of Swartbergpas - the real climb starts
  13. I hope you don't design scientific studies or do research for a living . And while we are using random facts - check out the ladies section.
  14. I am not big on social media- I hope "the next big event" will be advertised here as well. I am in.
  15. We were commenting on the other thread how great the race was. I am properly tenderised though.
  16. Several times I lost little groups through marginal technical sections due to the limitations of the gravel bike. Always caught back up again though. Even took a wrong turn inside Sun City and did an extra loop of single track. I will be back every year and it will always be with drop bars.
  17. .... Litte to no corrugations.... HA HA. Great event nonetheless.
  18. Also smiling at 1600g. I think you can get that at about 15K
  19. I will start getting pics soon. Lauf Grit arrived today.
  20. My Lynskey GR 260 was delivered this afternoon. Building start tomorrow. Ultegra Di2 with Industry Nine wheels.
  21. This. It seems to be acceptable to be offensive. This will escalate.
