  1. I guess the technical trail won't be open after XCM?
  2. Great thanks. That gravel road is nice and scenic and I enjoyed that. I did miss some more technical trials though. I will def check it out when we in that area again.
  3. If you don't mind me asking, is this the gravel route next to the river round the back to Jongens? Not sure what the road is called. Or are there other more technical routes you are keeping a secret? 😉
  4. The young lad that was helivac'ed has VERY serious injuries. Punctured lung. Liver damage from what I heard. Strongs to the fam
  5. In exactly the same vein, all these plastic pepper and salt grinders that are so convenient. As they wear, they simply deposit in plastic into your food as you grind. I refuse to use them myself. Can't control other people preparing meals that I may eat
  6. Man, My Marzocchi Bomber 1 fork was probs the best I have ever had...
  7. Looking at the pics, it's a bunch of old ballies..... being an old ballie myself
  8. #notworthit
  9. where was i partially incorrect? 😕 but you are 100% correct. My point being that _if_ a website checks ID nos, then you cannot simply change the birth date
  10. Either the website does not verify ID Numbers (bad) or you are talking erm.. untruths. Can cannot simply change a digit in your ID no. It will immediately render the number invalid. The last digit is a check digit that is calculated from the others. If it doesn't add up, the ID no is invalid
  11. Grossly unethical IMHO
  12. We were at that crossing on our way to Conties when this happened. The farm workers/bee keepers asked us to help take care of the bicycle as they were concerned that it would be stolen if left unattended. I then asked some one that just came from Hoogekraal in his bakkie to pick up the abandoned bike. We actually saw the guy on the jeep's roof. Not sure what happened to the bike?
  13. Don't modify it. You risk life and limb if it fails at the most inopportune moment. Years ago there was a guy at the Knysna race that modified / welded his fork. It failed during a descent and the bottom part took half of his face away. He died en-route to the hospital
  14. Not that I know of. Just gravel roads. Nothing technical. The road along the river to the north and then round the back to Jongens not bad.
