  1. Nice Ride on Bottelary Hills this morning 07:22 on top of Wolwedans Vasbyt
  2. Looks like you had the whole place to yourself :-)
  3. i meant... non-tubeless. apologies.
  4. pair of maxxis crossmark 2.1 120 TPI clincher 29 inch tires. never used, gathering dust in the garage. they came with my mtb, but i did the tubeless thing when i bought it. edit: fixed it.
  5. Franschhoek Pass
  6. Petri707 will be taking it :-)
  7. I have a used XT M8000 rear derailleur. Scratched it in high speed fall and one of the pulleys squeals sometimes.
  8. cycle events seeding ladder hasn't been updated yet with the results from the Stellies Cycle Tour. thought they share a database with racetec
  9. I won't embarrass myself like that
  10. can i start in a lower group if i want to ride with a friend?
  11. great news :-) on another note - when do 2017 permits go on sale?
  12. I tried to move it, but couldn't and... there were other trees laying on top of that one (to the left, out of view) and it seemed like a game of jenga. didn't want more to slide down onto the trail/me/my bike.
  13. Went down the Ribbok ST today and encountered these trees. The first one is touch and go as to whether I could duck under it. didn't take the chance. This is on the "original" ST The second one is about handle bar height, so definitely wouldn't have made it. On the extended white bit that was added recently. Besides those, I enjoyed the added bit.
  14. saw the marker today. my apologies i missed it about five times previously, can't say why. it really was the only one i haven't seen until today.
  15. thanks dirtman. i will make sure to check properly tomorrow. perhaps i was looking on the wrong side of the road. edit: the tree is further down the road, if you miss the turnoff. like i did :-|
  16. apologies, didn't mean to offend. i just took the name from Strava www.strava.com/segments/12006123?filter=overall after the blue bit there is an arrow to turn left, but 200m down, the right turn is not marked.
  17. Hellwarp... after the "stukkie ST" on the Red route, there is no sign to turn off where you join up to the Red/Orange route. There is a tree with lotsa other signage on, but no route marker. I missed the turnoff the first time I attempted the red route. Checked Strava to see where I should turn the next time. Managed to find my way then. It could be a bit frustrating for a first timer trying to do the red route. For those who don't know it's 200m after you exit the "stukkie ST"
  18. hellwarp, is there an updated map available that shows the new single tracks?
  19. nope. not pulling your leg. i got my email on the 24th already. i'm a paid up ppa member and i actually paid it before 1 July 2016.
  20. chickened out the first time, then did another lap. stopped to have a look first and rolled it slowly. was good!
  21. that one, yes. i haven't been out that way yet, didn't know there were more drops. i'll give it a go tomorrow.
  22. how much practice do i need for that dropoff?
  23. my 1st time down the extended Ribbok ST absolutely loved it!
  24. Bottelary Hills Today
