  1. Day 2 was awesome today. A lot of new single track. Add the heat and the extra few km they added it was definitely tougher than previous years. I really feel for the Ride riders in the heat on Monday!
  2. One piece of medical advice I would give is to pack your hay-fever medication. You will inhale enough fynbos pollen and dust to start a small farm. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Ek is al baie goed genoem in my lewe maar nog nooit 'n racing snake nie. I'll take it!
  4. Depends on fitness level and group, but around 20-25 min total. No reason to lose sleep over!
  5. My best advise is to spend 2 minutes stretching at the top of the portage if you are prone to cramping. I have consumed many tablets in the past and the stretching worked the best. I agree its not worth training special for it. At the back groups almost everyone push their bikes instead of carry because of all the traffic.
  6. The main issue with the portage is that it triggers some cramping in the legs once you start riding again. It works your muscles in a different way than normal riding. If it's as hot as 3 years ago, cramping is almost guaranteed!
  7. Does anyone know what the plans are for the building at the old shooting range in Eden Forrest. I see they are renovating it. Is there a coffee shop coming?
  8. They start buffalo at 90kg....that's barely a decent size backline player! I see they have now even added a Buffalo lite category for 80kg-90kg. They should rather add a Buffalo+ category! At the back of the W2W Adventure F group there are a lot of Buffalo+ candidates if the add a 105kg+ category.
  9. Ha Ha, honest mistake. I also fall in your side of the weight category and always ask for the weight limits of wheels etc. as I tend to exceed a lot of them. On that point, I think they should stop ranking race results in age categories and start acknowledging that weight is a bigger factor than age. It's a different sport above 105kg!
  10. Loved the water bridge at the finish line last year!
  11. This is a great event, but last year was a mud fest!
  12. Swop maar vir jou mtb en kom ry G-spot. Hier roer nie n blaar in Stellenbosch nie.
  13. I got in at around 8:20 and registered for Adventure. Team number is 182 so it's definitely not full yet. Keep trying!!
  14. Looks like the Adventure is going to be a wet/muddy one this year
  15. I am looking for riding partners in the De Zalze area. Morning or afternoon rides.
