  1. After 140 km already in the legs 8, 9, 10, 11, 12% turns into one hell of a wall to climb no matter what gears you have.
  2. Gone but not forgotten #iRide4Burry
  3. No not me, wasn’t there this year.
  4. Yes you are allowed to have a helper...the helper drops you off in Bloem and picks you up in Diemers or if you drop out of the race somewhere along the forgotten highway your helper can collect you.
  5. Everything is ridable, except if you are from a roady background and not yet used to a bit of technical riding here or there on a mtb, then just walk it. Going down the Merino Monster was the hardest and most exhaustive part of the 3 days for me. So take it easy going down there, hold onto your dentures, it’s very bumpy. If you put in your 8 hours a week you will be fine and absolutely love it! The food and the water points is top notch.
  6. Last time I heard Mrs Dreyer said she's giving hubby a chance to ride in 2017, things could have changed, will wait and see. Can't wait nonetheless.
  7. Don’t forget Martin Dreyer, if he entered.
  8. Point 4. is where i lost interest...the “grand prize” is only open to virgin members. Lekker, enjoy the indoor fietsies.

  10. 1000 Bike Show this weekend http://www.zabikers.co.za/event/1000-bike-show/?instance_id=2015
  11. Wow! What Vettel did after is wrong, reacted out of anger without taking the time to think about it. Data shows Hamilton did not brake (foot brake), but what about engine braking, just take your foot off the accelerator pedal and it's as if you put your foot on the brakes, especially with those high compression motors?
  12. Fashion...Must be a joke, no? http://www.milanofixed.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/sidi-997x1500.jpg

  14. Popped a lung but thoroughly enjoyed it out there on the trails
  15. I hope Jules still got all his teeth!
  16. Short video Extended video
  17. Exactly! Also nothing stops you in taking a six pack in a cooler with you to the event ready for you after the ride.
  18. I was impressed with my Maxxis Ardent 29x2.40 EXO/TR front and rear, went over the green slippery stuff no problem.
  19. Congrats vettie! Jy gan bloei pappie, and by that I mean the training (:
  20. Anatomic wp looked good, no time to stop though while chasing Jules and co who were miles ahead I'm busy with an "extended video" to try and show quite a bit more of the Hollard Juma route as i took a hell of allot of footage and also allot of drone footage from the Sheriff who was on drone duty , will post as soon as I'm done with the edit and the upload.
  21. I started with him. I struggled to stay with him riding towards Bryanston drive, after that i passed him on a technical section and never saw him again, I think the gearing he chose was a bit too ambitious for the second half.
