The one both sides of the highway. Robbery happened behind the one on the East.

sure you can wix...

Apparently they got a bit of a hiding....

I went past finishline cycles yesterday and was told of another highjacking at the R21 Engen. Cops at Garage acted quickly and made arrest (2 I think) and two got away. One bike still missing but others recovered.... I'll let you know when I have the facts. They must send them this way....

Good stuff that, just a beeetch to mix...

Also, you cant wear a cap in studio if the lights are not setup for it and he obviously had to wear it for his sponsors.

Hi, Speak to Mike Bond at International race supplies. They import the Goodridge stuff for our race cars and he told me that he brings in the cycling kits as well. He is near woodmead. 011 804 1275

They even got the timing for the rain perfect to cool us down after the finish........not everyone will agree though! AWESOME EVENT!!!

They are gonna try their luck with the wrong person one of these days ...Problem is that the cyclist will be up for assault or worse....

My very own highly respected super qualified medic is shouting "Burnshield" from the room next door. She says its expensive but well worth it and wont "stick" to the wounds when the dressing gets changed. Chemist should have it in stock. PM me if she can help, good luck and sorry about the accident.

I took my sister in law with, her first MTB race. She couldnt stop talking about all the climbing...???!!!! BWAHAHAHA a whole 250m in 60 kays! I'll enter her for Magalies monster.....

Valid points, but we still had a ball. Route much better than before.

Fizik Gobi....you wont look back!

Jammer om te hoor tjom...Ek hoop julle race was darem ok?

Be carefull, DONT SAND IT TOO MUCH!!! there is a coating and with the coating worn off the seals will wear in no time!

And thanks to the group that helped with a chainbreaker, I turned back after the mud caused havoc with my gears and snapped my chain. Thanks a lot, a little gesture that really stopped me from walkin a looong way!

One day long, one day easy, one day hills/hard. rest and repeat!

I've had two HUGE offs where I once cased a huge rock and once didnt clear a deep trench...both times my rear wheel took the impact and sent me flying and both times I thought the wheel was a throw away. Perfect both times...XTR! it was worth it!

Yip, in the years I've ridden NF theres never been real signage, other than to depict MTB & horse trails, more recently birding spots. Have never had an issue with riders coming from opposite directions, in fact the Spruit gets more congested and I personaly still don't have an issue with it. About 90% of NF is wide dirt roads, so it does seem to be a bit of a non-issue. I hear you DD, but I was there today and spent nearly two hours there of which more than 70% was singletrack, all marked with either route no or just a MTB sign...ALL in a anti-clockwise direction. Even the section from the 24h race has all is markings to use as a guide. You cant compare the spruit as it is a there-and-back ride and by expecting guys coming from the front it doesnt turn into a nasty surprise when you expect it least. Not wanting to argue, but lets make it safe and fun for all!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR HUBBERS!!!

Well said, I have had more than one close encounter....whats the point of paying for a safe ride if you have to dodge these clueless riders coming flat out from the front. Surely staring at the backside of all the direction markers must be a dead give away....
