They were strong at Tankwa until Marco got taken out by a duiker. (Yes really). Without Beers its likely they will at least podium. Rooting for the boys.

R27 from Melkbos (Blouberg) out west coast way has a shoulder mostly. Would still ride with bright lights/Radar and keep an ear open. Long road no madatory stops.

Also wondering about road conditions - mtb or gravel?

I started using an oval by accident and wont go back to round. It’s marginal though, not alles. If you’re dik fris, go 36. If you’re a normal oke like me who is maybe dik fris bit still working on it, go smaller! I use 32 equivalent.

FWIW, trans Augrabies is worth it if you like a fresh technical and well hosted race. Great leaving the family in the park. Worth the drive at least once.

This forum is good for awareness, but judging by the perps mentality he is going to lay very low after reading this, for better or worse.

Chances are the same group will ride again coming weekend, if one knows how to identify them.

Those vent thingys are just going to be a beach to clean.

So about 60kms in Trans Baviaans last weekend, my pulley stops pulling... The jockey return spring snapped (not the visible spring that sends the parallelogram up and down the cassette, the one inside the clutch cover). Wondering if anyone has an old buggered 10 spd rear derailleur that I could harvest the spring of? Would like to see if I can keep this groupset together for a bit longer before big spending on 12spd. I'm in JHB and happy to pay in beer or a nominal cash donation. My floppy chain and I finished Trans after a lot of swearing and the help of some rubber bands.

Awesome website. Congrats manne.

Is stage info/partial stage info going to be released/when? AMPED

Cheers

Great event indeed. Saw a few photographers, anyone know if/where they post their shots? Happy to pay for rad photos of myself (not) railing a corner like a pro.

Louis Theroux has a 1h documentary about brain injuries and how people and their fams live/try to live after. I'm your typical don't stress-er but it even had me super shocked. No helmet=no ride, no exception!!
