  1. Does the Vipa come with a brown paper bag to put over your head while cycling? #flippenlelikebikedaai
  2. Thought the Epic was from 13 - 20 March 2016...but hey if the Hub say so then it must be so.
  3. I have a bit of DC experience...will help where I can. Below is very important information for everyone doing the DC. (tongue-in-cheek) Make sure you have done a few long rides before doing DCEat on the ridePace yourselfDrink regularly to avoid dehydration
  4. So far the best ride I bought!
  5. why not make it a million ZARS for podium...sounds better
  6. i am talking being innovative...follow one company and claim you being ahead of the game. winning the XCO world champs got nothing to do with it.
  7. Shimano kom nou eers uit met 1 x 11 en se hulle gooi "benchmark" in MTB.
  8. Using companies as an example, you might get 5 that is willing to contribute 5K towards entry. Surely we all have some connections who can ask "someone they know". It is very hard...you might have 30 on your list and will only get a hit rate of let's say 2. I always say it is better to ask for 5K than for 50K
  9. They will still ask you if you have done the Epic...
  10. This year was my 2nd Epic and here is my take on it: 1st Epic - You go completely "bos" to prep for it, you do most MTB stage races to prepare, you get a coach, you spend money on a bike, parts, you spend a lot more hours on the bike, you look at nutrition. You really spend a lot of money and time at your first one out of fear of the unknown. 2nd Epic - Do an hour or two more on weekends to get some "miles" in for Epic, that is it! You then realize that you do not need to spend a lot of money to do Epic except that the cost of the entry. Most people riding the Epic get companies to help sponsor their entry, usually if you beg hard enough you might get two companies to pitch in and at worst you have to pay in a few grand. If you get 2 companies who can give 10K then you 35K short, all of a sudden 17K each is not not bad to ride Epic. But in summary...people tend to over analyse costs etc. to do Epic
  11. Wonder how long it will take to fill this one up!
  12. Got this baby last week! Black Inc Frame, Easton EA90 XC wheels, XX1 with SISL2 Hollowgram crankset and XLR Carbon Lefty.
