  7. 7:55 with a snot nose and a cramping leg the last 10km no I didnt race so it was just a adventure for me but I kept up with some of the groups where last year I was dropped by everybody. It was much more comfortable on this bike (more hand positions than on the flat mtb bars). I stripped my gravel bike and did the rebuild as an experiment but I am going to keep it as it is will maybe go a bit narrower on the tyre's if possible

  17. Ek het my gat good en solid gesien gister ek het nog nooit in my lewe so warm gekry nie seker my slegste tyd ooit op /n mtn race
  18. Elke jaar k@k ek lekker op die Crooze maar volgens my dit is die beste race wat ek al ooit gery het net jammer daai laaste paar km is so lank .Daar is genoeg van alles op die race en daars niks fout met die waterpunte nie . Daai ou wat gemoan het seker nie die Norhtern Farms race gery nie.
  19. Let me put it this way .Ive done all of the croozes so far and finished all of them but time wise ....between 5:30 and 6:30? Had a nasty fall a few years back and lost all the urge to race a mtb now I am enjoying it looking at the scenery watching the birds at the water points .....
  20. any one is welcome to ride with me but you must not be in a hurry to finish
  21. Lyk darem of WP rugby beter is as PPA
  22. Daardie laaste 10km was tough, was nog in tyd vir 'n 3:30 op 50 km maar het heeeelwat langer gevat as wat ek wou ry . Baie goeie roete gewees
