Alpine Sports Coaching

I replaced brake pads and gently pushed the pads/pistons back, they went back smoothly so that I could get the new pads in. I then noticed some fluid had pushed out at the leaver on the side, just a bit and I have riden the bike since and no more fluid has come out and the leaver is hard. Is this normal?

Give GleedSpeed2 a shout, he is back on the bike and looking for action.

Thank you for the info.

I'm talking about the other Strandfontein, up the West Coast. Check the attached Map. I want to ride Dirt Roads, National Parks Ect all along the coast and not inland.

Bump

Hi, Does anyone know of a dirt road route that one can follow from Strandfontein and finish in Melkbos? I would like to do a three day trip on my MTB. Thanks

Thanks alot, will give it a try and see what happens.

I'm not struggling so much with the distance, its more when the big climbs are thrown in with it. That normally breaks me. So for the climbs, find a hill and climb, climb climb?

Thanks for the advice.

LOL, shot for the advice. Im training hard at the moment, long technical rides, gym work and spinning. Any other pointers?

Hi, Looking for good training advice for MTB Marathon event. Any suggestions?

Hi, Does anyone know the route for the 4 Passes offroad course that start at Helshoogte goes through to Franshhoek Pass and over to Grabouw?

I think that will be me this year

Thanks now I know what I am in for

Still dont see anything on that link either.

I have checked their site and there is nothing for Tulbagh not even the amount of climbing. Please could you mail me the garmin file, pgleed@gmail.com. Thanks

Hi, Does anyone have the route profile and the amount of climbing for the 75KM Marathon Event? Thanks

Thanks for the reply, I have mailed you.

I have recently moved to Uitzicht and see many people with Mountain Bikes riding around the area everytime I drive from my house. Please can I get some advice on trails and rides in the area. Many Thanks

I ran Avid CR's for awhile and the levers kept going soft, we replaced seals ect and no luck. So I bought Shimano XT 2012 Brakes and WOW what a difference. Im not even running the ICE TEC rotors and its stops well, doesnt fade and they are silent.

Where can I find a route profile for the 55km?

Thanks again.

How many Km's is the ride?

Wow thanks alot man. Will give it a go and let you know.

Thanks alot. Do you maybe have the garmin file for this?
