  1. If a local doesn't offer you advice here, try contacting the bike shop at the trail head Euodia Cycles. They're a friendly bunch and always happy to talk about the trails.
  2. First Look Friday is an introduction to the products that we are currently testing for review. This week we're previewing the Silverback Sphere 1 plus bike, Verve Infocrank, and a SRAM NX upgrade. Click here to view the article
  3. After supporting riders in the tech zone during the Cup Series this season, I've finally plucked up the courage and entered. I'll see you all there (assuming I survive practice).

  5. Although it probably should be in the skills thread, here he gets is right at 1:53
  6. It's my first time doing this type of event. What's the approach to corrugation in terms of bike setup? Does a slightly softer fork setup and tyres help? I'm looking to do 8 hours plus on a hardtail, so improvements to comfort trump outright efficiency. See you all there!

  8. Not more than two hours drive. Preference will be given to closer segments though. The submissions will be ongoing as we proceed through the series. You may submit as many segments as you like. However, should you want all your segments consider, I'd recommend getting your entry in before Tuesday next week.
  9. Just a heads up for those thinking of doing the 100Miler or 50Miler, entries close today.
  10. All round great event. I really enjoyed it. Thank you organisers! Although I figured this out beforehand, and can't complain, I was also somewhat disappointed that last year's route was not repeated. It was one of the most enjoyable and challenging single day races in the Western Cape. Hoping the Trailseeker race later in the year uses the full Bains trails route.
  11. Sorry to disappoint you on your birthday, Willie2011.
  12. Congrats to FCH, the winner of the Praxis cassette and chainring.
