A group of us did the Burger MTB race, and 1 guy did the 44km road race ... all on Uni's No.... we don't cleat in. It's not really a good idea, unless you're planning on having some reconstructive face surgery

..... article on page 3 http://www.capeargus.co.za Did an interview with the Argus on Monday afternoon, at the start of a ride in Tokai Forest, as I'm going to do the Argus MTB Challenge on my MUni. Still running around trying to get a copy of the Argus to get the whole story.

I had some terrible service from Cycle Lab at Westlake in CT. After going to the place 4 times looking for something and being told each time that it would be ordered and arrive a few days later.... nothing. So went to their website and found a web form to fill in rating their service.... http://www.cyclelab.co.za/default.asp?des=feedback Worked very well. Got an email from Andrew Mclean shortly thereafter, and a call from Gary Mercia a short while after that, follow by a call from the store manager. They sourced what I was looking for in 3 days and I collected it from them. They were very appologetic about everything. Give it a go.

Thanks for the links From them I've managed to get Mamba, Boomslang, Snake Eyes, Vasbyt, Downhill 4, My Roots, and Faerie Garden. Already had Cobra, and the Bridal Path. Now to get Boulders, Downhill 1, those below Downhill 1, and Lizard. JohnnyReggae2009-01-06 03:30:43

Have ridden in Eden. There was some stuff there, but mostly flowing stuff besides the NorthShore drops. Spoke to Chris about the JH stuff, apparently it also flows a lot and is a very fast single track, not quite what I'm looking for. Have also done the Bridal path in Tokai, again not very technical. There is a slightly tricky piece near the beginning between the 1st and 2nd swith-backs, but that's about it... besides the switch-backs themselves. There is some very tricky technical stuff below Downhill 1. There are 2 trails and both are very technical. The first goes off to the right and comes out at Lizard, then 2nd goes straight down and eventually comes out on a very steep drop onto the jeep track on the same level as Lizard, just a little further up.

Will definitely give you a shout. 2 of us made the trip out there a short while ago to do the Tygerberg MTB fun ride which went through the Majik Forest twice. Was a little disappointed as I was expecting some good technical stuff so I took my 24" MUni along. Next time I'll take my 29'er along rather as the trail flows quite a lot which the 29'er will just eat up

This is the 2nd video of the very first Unicycling Convention in South Africa which was held over the weekend of 21-23 November 2008. Attended by guys from Cape Town, Johannesburg, Pretoria, and France. It was an awesome weekend !! This video is not as action packed as the first one Ruan did, but has a more relaxed feel . Would appreciate any comments. Cheers http://www.vimeo.com/2491919

Occasionally I get a sore shoulder after some violent waving of an arm after taking some hectic drops ... and yeah... I think we're friendly

Thanks man !! Yup the footage in this video is mostly from Tokai. We spend the weekend in Elgin and found very little single track to ride so decided to head back to Cape Town on the Sunday afternoon to go for a ride in Tokai rather. We ended up going back the Monday evening again. There is still a load more video footage to go through. Ruan has a lot to get through from his video camera, and I got hold of the video footage last night from the other video camera. So there will be more on the way
