  1. Klapperkop in Pretoria have potential?? Some elevation to work with and a easy tar road to climb to the top. The stages might not be so long but can work as a "mini-enduro"? What can we do to get the ball rolling on the enduro front in Gauteng?

  3. Guys, where in Gauteng are we going to have Enduro races? What do we need to do? It's awesome to see Enduro picking up in SA, but for some (Gautenger like me) it's not always possible to do these events in other provinces (logistics/leave at work/costs etc) & to be blatantly honest, the XC events here suck or maybe I have just outgrown them? (for me at least) My first Enduro was at Giba, and that was probably one of the best days on my bike in the last 7 years! The vibe, the trials...everything about it captured the spirit of enduro & riding bikes. Being herded into a "camp" (starting batches) along with 1500+ other riders (sheep) and spending most the time on the trails climbing off the bike at the downhilly bits because of congestion & nervous braking by the chop in front of you, really don't do it for me anymore, not to mention the insane entry price asked, (referring to a recent big sponsored event at one of the best spots to ride in North West)
  4. What's the price on this bike?
  5. BLIKSEM!! Watter model is die?
  6. Me & my buddy won't be able to make this year's Great Trek and we are willing to sell our team entry at a reduced price of R6000 per team. Acommodation already booked at Sterkfontein Dam near the start. PM if interested. More info about the race here: http://www.bergandbu...&name=Race Info
  7. Just asking, is it better to buy mountain bike specific FF helmets or can you drop the cash on a mx lid? Is weight the only difference? (mtb one being lighter?)
  8. Jeesh, that means if the 40km only starts at 8:30, my batch will start at 9:10 By then everything would have melted
  9. why do we need CSA licenses for races?
  10. Faaaark!!! WHAT A BIKE!

  17. Enduro is about having enduro events (and terrain) as well.....
  18. Man, that Canyon is something. Pitt we don't get them here .... Like most cool bikes.
  19. Maybe it's the dirt roadies? You get people complaining about the terrain up here in Gauteng in the 30000+ entries races, I mean WTF, it's mostly flat? If you can't handle the terrain, it tells you that you suck on your bike and need to practice more and develop your tech skills! I bet the girls riding the trails overseas will kick more ass on hectic terrain than most dudes here in SA, including myself.
