  1. Good barristers cost way more!
  2. Come down to the 947. We might be able to twist your arm...
  3. Even the youngsters are ripping up the Vlakkenberg MTB Trail! #houtbaycycling
  4. The inaugural Bicyclegear.co.za Blowout was held last Sunday on the Vlakkenberg MTB Trail powered by Private Client Holdings, Pedal Power Association and Bicyclegear.co.za. 1st - Luke Moir 2nd- Mark Moir 3rd - Sean Newbery Click here for photos of the event. The next event will be held on the first weekend in December.
  5. Just a reminder of the inaugural "Bicyclegear.co.za Blowout" happening on the #vlakkenbergmtbtrail this Sunday 6th November. The B Group will start at 8:45 and do 2 laps of 2km. The A Group will start at 9:30 and do 4 laps of 2km. The start is on the Hout Bay pipe-track. If you park at Constantia Nek, follow the pipe-track on the way down into Hout Bay. If you are riding up from Hout Bay, follow Fynbos Close onto the pipe-track until you find us at the start. We will be present at the start from 8:00 until 10:30.There will be 30 riders allowed to race for each group. We are selling R30 Vlakkenberg MTB Trail permits at the the start. This allows you to ride on the trail and have free entry into the monthly "Bicyclegear Blowout" events. All monies collected go towards building more trail and maintenance of it. http://bicyclegear.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Advert-of-event.jpg http://bicyclegear.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/From-CN-directions.jpg
  6. Working. Cutting trails, making technical sections and stabilising the area...You can buy a permit and map of trail here...
  7. Go have a look, you will be pleasantly surprised! #vlakkenbergmtbtrail
  8. Phase 3 will be finished in January. Phase 2 is happening shortly...
  9. We want people to ride the trail. All money raised from permits will go towards more build/maintenance days. The R30 permit is valid for a year. As the network increases so the fee will as more work is needed to maintain things...
  10. If you are coming down on the Sunday 6th November, park at Constantia Nek. We will have someone up there directing people to the trail and start line...
  11. That is correct...We are creating a XC trail network at the moment. The whole idea is to enhance riders technical skills on a trail that can be ridden multiple times in a safe and enjoyable environment.
  12. It will certainly be the idea. Once the EMP allows for riders to use the Cecilia Forest jeep track, you will be able to ride the entire greenbelt from Tokai, all the way off road linking into the Hout Bay trails. The "saddle" down to Hout Bay from the Mast climb, is still a bit steep...
  13. Trail opening is happening 6 November 2016!
  14. The official trail opening is on 6 Novmeber. We would like to get people to buy a R30 permit or come on the day and buy one which will give you entry to all the "Bicyclegear Blowout". The monies go to building more trail and securing more land for building in Hout Bay. When you buy the permit we will send your all details.
  15. That is great! Thanks to the Bikehub.co.za for listing our launch. We are very excited to have mtb'ers sharing our trails.
  16. There are some really amazing young riders coming out of this program. Riders from these races are going to be selected for the Interschools event later this year...
  17. I hear non-league nights anyone can compete...Get hold of the chariman at the UCT Cycling club, Gregg Christy, chairman@uctcyclingclub.co.za.
  18. This event is becoming "the" monthly league event for Southern Suburbs school's mountain bikers!
  19. Really great to see this kind of event happening so frequently. All the Cape Town schools should go through!
  20. Was it one of these? http://thingd-media-ec2.thefancy.com/default/335887583626141137_37ee28de411b.jpg
  21. While am not doing the Lesotho Sky event, I was just wondering whether it was still happening with the coup having taken place in that country?
  22. When we sell bibs we always recommend to cyclist to take a size bigger, if you have only worn SA products. For top quality, well priced Vermarc Bibs checkout bicyclegear.co.za. Two World Pro-Teams have chosen Vermarc, as well as 4 of the top 30 teams on the Cape Epic this year...
  23. Thanks for the "Vermarc" punt. You can buy them online at Bicyclegear.co.za
  24. Who is more emotional in the ‪#‎OPQS‬ team car, Davide Bramati or Mark Cavendish? You be the judge! Also, Michał Kwiatkowski talks about his monster descent at Tour de France Stage 16 where he drastically cut the gap to riders in front of him. Good try Kwiato! ‪#‎TDF‬ ‪#‎CavintheCar‬
