Look, I'm not trying to be negative, the thing is, I tend to watch mtb videos on Pinkbike... a lot. I also follow the EWS and SuperEnduro and went to the Giba Enduro & Karkloof Enduro - I am obsessed with mountain biking Now from what I watch on videos and read up on I tend to want to have that similar stoke, of which I did, when riding Karkloof & Giba trails. That kind of terrain relates more to me and the kind of riding I want to do. When we see guys riding on these videos etc. doesn't that makes you want to go out and shred!?? Well I certainly do. I would imagine other places like Jonkershoek, Tokai, Welvanpas to be more like those we see on the videos of overseas, and that is more true to mountain biking for me than farm district roads. http://www.south-african-hotels.com/media/kololo-game-reserve-mountain-biking.jpg

I think I will need to come to terms with the fact that in Gauteng we don't have the terrain for awesome mountain bike enduro-style riding.

Bet this fair caters only for the XC scene?

lets hope 2014 has more mountain bike races

walk into 4 LBS's. ask for AM bikes? blank stare. can't help. walk out. buy beer. lekker in SA.

bliksem, dit lyk mos nou lekker

Mr Pastrana and crew will be in town! Get ya tickets ladies : http://www.bigconcerts.co.za/

Will there be bikes with wheel sizes smaller than 29" and travel more than 140mm??

Does anyone know if the Bergamont Threesome EX is available in SA and the pricing?? What's your thoughts on the bike?

I am.

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?

jeesh, trails looks awesome. #needtoridepropertrails #hatelivingingauteng #jeeptrackisnotfun #xcisnottheonlymtbing #deprivedofpropermtbing

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)

What's the price on this bike?

BLIKSEM!! Watter model is die?

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

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?)

Jeesh, that means if the 40km only starts at 8:30, my batch will start at 9:10 By then everything would have melted

why do we need CSA licenses for races?

Faaaark!!! WHAT A BIKE!

What a bike!

Only 1200km's away
