  1. Just entered the Full Challenge again, need some time out from normal day to day life. Enjoy riding in the Karoo.
  2. Your wish came true..Trans always delivers.
  3. Not to worried about the road, but let me tell you the wind is going to a big factor later in the day/night.
  4. Ya with a plough!!
  5. I think the wind will be a factor from Patensie (never ender) but not so much in the reserve.
  6. Maybe it's just me or is it, but I enjoyed riding in the Reserve with the testing road conditions. It kept you on your toes and made the ride more interesting. I still mentioned to my partner this is what I enjoy. I found the long dust roads a bit boring...but ya that's the Trans and I love it. Will be going back this weekend for more....
  7. Pitty I was thinking of taking my road bike
  8. Well if that's not motivation to finish earlier then I don't know!!
  9. Team 297. 2 Rooster Cookies, sweetees, 2 worsies and 2 sosaties, cup of soup + bread, 2 x slap chip rolls, 2 x jaffles (only reason I do the trans) and then lot's of beer and spur burger. Time ???...who cares, just enjoy.
  10. No worries to early to tell and trust me the first weekend weather can go South very quick. I've stood on the start line before with a light NW and it's turned in a matter of minutes to a headwind and it was k*k.
  11. Windguru Baviaans, hope it stays like this!!!
  12. I've always maintained it's guys like you that are the real heroes when it comes to these Ultra Distance Racers, well done bud I'm proud of you.!!!.....and a great read!!!!
  13. Went there wanting to do Sub 20. Paced myself out perfectly to a 19.22. Enjoyed the race and cold beers at the finish. Absolutely no complaints from my side, just a well organised event. "I'll Be Back"
  14. Are you doing the 36one? Good training for the Munga.
  15. Here we go, size of the box. And good luck to all taking part, see you guys Friday. Be Safe and Enjoy!!
  16. All those questions will be answered soon. Just make sure you prepared.
  17. Thanks for the update...it's still very long...eina it's going to hurt.
  18. If you feel confident to race at the sharp end of the bunch then go for it, the last 80km...feels like murder to me.
  19. All my racers are done on Maxxis Icons 2.20 and that includes the Attakwas this year with no issues, just find it such a versatile tyre.
  20. 8th very nice, hope your training goes well.....check you on the start line for the "36one Head Game".
  21. I see you sporting a Pure Savage racing shirt, very good riders in that team, so are you going to be racing at the sharp end of the group?
  22. Why do we do that to ourselves? First time I understand but then we go back for more...enjoy.
