  1. Puck Pieterse is a little legend !

  3. Or possibly the opposite ? Reaping the rewards of the Epic miles and everything that went with it.
  4. That crash a few years ago really had a big effect on her body. She never really got back to her strength. Great to see her racing though
  5. Very surprising finish !

  7. Teflon Man. Innocent, until proven guilty. Also, a lot of bluff, bluster and mock charging. And probably profuse apologies and (alleged) fake EFT's.
  8. He doesn't have an attorney . The letters are D.I.Y. jobs
  9. The Cross Cape route is not a formal thing. I have done it on my MTB and GG (pro's and cons for each) The roads exist between the towns. You can break it up into your own manageable bits. You can do it either way (Stellies & Plett) You don't have to do the whole thing (first few days or last few days) You book accommodation in the towns (I used Booking.com, but there are lots of platforms) Create your own route and load to your device. As you can see from this thread, logistics is a thing. You can ride supported (with your own follow vehicle) or self supported. This is obviously part of your logistics. Its safe (within common sense boundaries) Its obviously weather dependent. You cover a lot of ground, so weather is variable. Its awesome and should be on your bucket list.

  10. Rent a kombi - drive to Plett - Ride home Winning ! Riding back from George means that you miss the first 2 days, which might be the best, given that they are mostly forest roads. Certainly my favourite.
  11. I have been using the Cinturato H (on my 3rd or 4th set), but they have become as rare as rocking horse poop. But I see that there is a Cinturato Adventure. Has anyone tried those ?
  12. Until he is found guilty of any the accusations and charges, anything said about him is probably seen as 'crimen injuria', which he feels that he can act on. He has previously sent 'Final Letters of Demand' to remove content referring to him and filed 'Notice of Motion' for 'Personal Damages' and 'Loss of Earnings' against BikeHub and specific Hub Members. Matt took that further, and won in court. But it took time, effort and money. I don't know how the other individuals reacted. I imagine that he has done that to all other forums too. So, he must spend a lot of time doing this in reaction to all the 'bad press' against him which is mounting all the time.
  13. I imagine that he feels that he is the victim of this series of unfortunate events
