Boet, nobody, and I mean nobody, beat their way to the takeoff when Leonard Giles was out..... Unless...Leonard...is that you!? If it is, I'm sorry, really sorry, never again....😇

I don't belong to a club, will I get a "PK"?😐

I was away for an hour, thread has disappeared? Edit, gone from Active Topics now here Riding Routes & Trails Tygerberg MTB club newsletter - unacceptable

Not only that, the member may be frustrated by the lack of respect that other riders display but that certainly does not condone his threats, its the antithesis of club promotion. Imagine the trail builders at Le Gets Mainline take that attitude! Those braking bumps are left to become doubles!!!!!🤣

Not to Hoogekraal or Conties......until I've finished that damn self-defense course 🤼‍♂️

JA, well no fine! Firstly, the trails are open to anyone willing to pay regardless of skill levels....whilst roosting and drifting into corners is not particularly good MTB etiquette, it is part of the sport...I don't recall having to pass any sort of skills test before riding there... Secondly, if true, these comments are outside their constitution guidelines which actually also provide guidelines for dealing with members bringing the name of the club into dis-repute, however, since one of the elements of the constitution has been apparently flagrantly dis-regarded, with apparent committee endorsement, is there any hope that the disciplinary guidelines will be applied? Lastly, I dunno...boggles the mind that this type of statement in this day and age would be publicly circulated in a club memo!* Let's wait for the Club's response before lighting torches...I do enjoy riding there! I don't get this newsletter...but what would I have to do to warrant a "PK"???...said "PK" better be legally defensible...(doubtful but lets hear it!!)

They found that motor!!!???

Yeah, definitely not on.... They will have to re-write their Disciplinary code... If the Subcommittee for Discipline finds the accused member guilty of an infringement as charged, it may – warn the member; impose a fine not exceeding R5 000.00 (Five Thousand Rand) on the member; suspend the member for a period not exceeding six months; or, recommend to the Management Committee that the member should be expelled from the Club. 😎 New amendment: "Dish out PK's as and when"

😆 did they scan those thighs tho?!!!

Whilst the course may not have been true "gravel", I did enjoy the coverage, that dude who rode the bike following the breakaway bunch had some tricky riding to do, not to mention the camera-man who did a great job over his shoulder!!! I see big opportunities for lightweight stabilisation rigs for these bike-mounted TV cameras tho! Looking forward to the Mens later

Yoh, I don't get this newsletter...but what would I have to do to warrant a "PK"...said "PK" better be legally defensible...(doubtful but lets hear it!!)

No way!...that's awesome, I have had a Mavic a few years and would NEVER attempt that...

That's some ballsy flying...well done.....Avata?

That feeling at the end of the week....

🤣 they were all too big so i went home....

Breakfast and window shopping.....

Before security gates and Ring doorbells, there were brass knockers....man, what fun we had with a long fishing line standing behind a tree on the verge!!!!! Tok tokkie level 5 PRO....Never got caught....!!😎

Sorry to hear.....Jeez, parents can be such a drag!!

Rotor upsized, caliper mount not....amateur hour....lucky escape

Hot n' sticky...Dubai

Let me know if you come right and get it up and running...I got a bricked 5 waiting for a new battery

Quiet easy to replace, the hard part is finding the battery

I understand the concept of walking and running against the traffic....and it holds for most situations...this stretch is not one of them.

Easy...going down from the view point toward Noordhoek...road users have to use the left hand side of the road...that's the law...said runners are running up from Noordhoek to the view point and they run on the RIGHT hand side, up against the cliff....so there I am going down with the cliff on my left trying to stay as left as possible to avoid getting squeezed by cars behind me....only to encounter a runner directly in my path when coming round one of the numerous blind corners long that stretch.... Before I get it in the neck..I'm not including pedestrians/runners as a "road user"...I'm sure everyone knows what I mean...

Those jumps there are PROPER, you can see it has taken a lot of effort and skill to build, last time I looked in there about a month ago, signs of lack or riding/maintenance were starting to show, I really hope the guys who "manage" that place get back and spruce it up and ride again as it really is a spectacular show when they flying over the jumps, would be a pity to let it get re-absorbed into the wilderness....
