Do true Cape, while you still can. Its fantastic and one of the best, then next year do GT, when Tru Cape has 1500 entrants and becomes unrideable.

Maybe Dawels can give you more info on the Pyga, but I believe that was quite a bit more expensive than the Spez he eventually bought.

Not that bad dude. Quite sexy in green. Not my first choice, also not my last.

Delvera, very easy and safe, yet still fun.

Dont you guys shop around? Bought my stumpy for R22 500. Retail price is R29 500. You do realize that bicycles are sold at a profit right. A very big profit. Negotiating a schweet deal is half the fun.

This is just my opinion, but I always try and buy new. Purely because of the warranty thing. Its a huge piece of mind. Which sometimes means sacrificing your drream bike for a lesser model.

I enjoyed it up to the point where someone decided its a good idea to give us km and km of soft sand. After that I was gatvol and over it.

Good price for a great bike. I have one and its superb.

Alu stumpy is R20k. Carbon stumpy with xt/x9 is R 26500. That being said, I would buy one of the Momsens.

We had the same discussion last year. Decided to do the race this year, as I have done Tru Cape before and staying in Paarl there is no travelling. But they should reconsider those prices. You can go ride Welvanpas trails for R30 a day. Also if I remember correctly they gave no medals last year, instead giving that money to charity.

Doing the 63. Route profile looks okay. Fairly flat. Please dont tell me its all sand or something.

All good and well, but I sign up to race. not to sponsor development riders. I allready sponsor Songo.info. I entered your race, but you are competing with a race in Grabouw with awsome trails at less than half the price.

I always said Vettel had it lucky with his car. Seems very true at this stage. Crybaby of note. Again not listening to team orders. He is not winning any fans. Other than that, quite enjoyed the race, expected the drs to be more effective on the long straights. Was not the case. Some good racing all round. Kimi Raikkonen should stick to eating ice creams, absolutely nowhere. Fernando drove a great race. Lewis superb. One thing is clear at this stage, Nico, Vettel and Kimi are being upstaged by their team mates. and it is clear for all to see.

Ferrari, I mean Fernando , seems to have found some pace. Looked very good in fp 1 and 2. Very very good.

Some of the best singletrack known to man. Seriously, you wil not be dissapointed.

you are right, once a race becomes too popular it becomes a problem aswell. I will be hurting with you.

Such a pity. Tru Cape is awsome. I am doing this one, entered.

Congrats on the bike. I was hoping you would buy that one. Remember to post some pics. Enjoy.

You should be able to do the 3 laps in under 2 hours easy.

I love it. Very fast, only one climb. Nothing too technical.

Did not even know about it.

Are there any xco races which are not aimed at pros? I am asking because I would love to participate.

Hahaha, agreed.

Not as sexy as xx1. Not even close.

Agreed. Happy to read a biased review for once. Stumpy 29er for the win.
