    Yip, doing the 50km mtb, and then riding with my girl the 50km road race. Prepping her for Argus 2015.

    Looks wet, yet again. My bike repair budget is gone for the next 3 years allready.

    Best race of the year so far. Loved it. Gives me hope that the rest of the season might be a bit more exciting. Well deserved win for Riciardo, so happy for him. Only downside is the Ferraris again lacking pace.

    Enjoy Brandon, thats why you are much fitter than us mortals. Waay too cold, plenty red wine tonight and then a very easy Jonkershoek ride 2morrow. Good luck for the race. Enjoy

    Def worth a trip. Ride some trails in Tokai after. awsome man.

    Again, your wisdom is amazing. Unfortunately I stay in Paarl and Wynberg is about as far as going to Russia, and never heard of Williams bike shop. Went to Revolution cycles hoping to see and Demo, but they had nothing to offer me. That was my petrol budget for the month gone. anyway. Dont want to spoil this fred with kuk. Will make a plan to Demo one soon.

    Super bummed I missed that

    Seriously, is Rocky Mountain the coolest bike brand in the world. The only reason I have not bought one is virtually no dealers in Slaapstad, and no Demo rides available. But geez, these things look sooooo hot. And if it looks this good, it must ride even better.

    Still pissing down with rain here in Paarl, the Berg river is overflowing its banks. Really wanted to do this race, but killing my bike made me thin twice. You going to need a jetski for this race, not a mtb.

    Super sexy. Wheels are perfect size for the frame. Jealous indeed.

    A 2014 Robertson Winery Mtb medal x 5.
  13. Johny Bravo
    Any news regarding medals this year. Some of my mates might make the trip with their kids.

    2014 Epic marathon Carbon, with a xo1 conversion. Pure bike porn. I also have one, in black.
  15. Johny Bravo
    Sexy. Lose the baggy under the seat.
  16. Johny Bravo
    Yip, love Oakley, but my Polarised lenses are really kuk and scratch when you rub it on a babies bottom.
  17. Johny Bravo
    That is because no one is buying them friend. Steer clear.
  18. Johny Bravo
    Eish, avoid the Scotts for now. Till they sort out the issues. Vipa, Epic, Anthem, take your pick.
  19. Johny Bravo
    Skipping aswell. I am still broke from the last wet race in Wellington. Mtb is not for sissies I know, broken bike repairs bills are not for sissies either. Enjoy folks.

    I loved the camber, but somehow it felt big. Dont quite know how to explain it, but in tight corners I felt it was long and big. I dont get that feeling with the Epic. also the camber does not have the brain. My Epic is running Specialized ground control tyres, 2.3 front and 2.1 rear. Working extremely well I must add.
  21. Johny Bravo
    sweet man.
  22. Johny Bravo
    That means you would have to ride more than 6 hours every day for 365 days a year. Well done dude, congrats .

    My other bike is a Stumpjumper Hard tail, carbon. Hard and fast and 90mm travel. Has its place, mainly serving as my wet race bike. Extremely light, less maintenance and scary fast. Owned a 110mm Camber for 18 months, also carbon, 110mm travel. I have ridden every bike in the Spez range, ridden a Vipa, loads of Giants, I hate the meastro suspension. I race every single race on the calendar. Also frequent Paarl mountain, Jonkers and Dirtopia. My absolute favourite is the Epic, not anything below 2014 models, they were scary. I love love love the brain. Edit. Not saying the Epic is better than the vipa, I just love the brain. Dont care about preceived perceptions about maintenance etc, I work to ride, my bikes are my kids, so any money spent on them is no issue.
  24. Johny Bravo
    Since you have had your Vipa a while now, how is the 80mm rear travel. My Epic is at 100mm and with the brain setup right I can take on terrain which would normally require longer travel bikes. With better tyres obviously, the std Epic tyres are the worst thing on this planet. With 80mm travel I feel it is just as racy as the Epic if not more.

    Can us mere mortals also buy the white frame?
