I mostly ride alone too. I love riding in a group but fitting riding in between the kids' activities means that I need to ride at different times than the usual Saturday mornings. I run Garmin Live Track and hope for the best... It is what it is.

Vrystaaaat!

Anyone been able to enter?

I always serviced my Lefty at Cogent Industries in Pretoria East. Jacques is really good!

Did the Chardonay. Had a blast!

Go out to Buffesldrift and hit the Bufuni trail. It combines the Buffel and Nguni trail and should give you about 85km and a more than decent workout.

I have no gripe with e-bikes in these events. I do however agree with the OP to some extent. When you enter an event like Sani2c, take the time to invest in your skill set. You already don't have to spend the same amount of time training as the other riders, so take some time to get your level of skill to a decent level. No one expects you to be Greg Minnaar, but be competent enough to navigate normal mountain bike terrain, like riding over a rock, or riding a switchback. At the end of the day it's not just about the riders being held up behind you, but you're also adding significantly to your own experience and enjoyment of the event.

Ride in Peace Cois. Sincerest condolences to friends and family. This entire thread is a beautiful tribute to his courageous fight.

Tranquilitas is superb riding! Need to go back and spend a day rock climbing as well, which we missed out on the last time.

Spent an hour longer out there every day than what we planned. The Adventure was wet but rideable. The Race looked like a different kettle of fish. Still had a good time and rode almost half of the race with the Binders. Here's my take on it.

I ride the lower green section with my 6 and 8 year old often. They love it!

Just added you Harryn. Looking forward!

You need a Strava Permium subscription, have the function activated on your Garmin and add the segments you want to include to your favorites (star the segment, as ouzo said).
