  2. As we near the end of the 2021 season, let's get a chat started about rider and team changes, both locally and internationally!
  3. Last year in August/September 2 boys from Westville in KZN took on the rest of the world when they, along with a few other talented South Africans, were selected to represent their country at the 2015 World Championships in Andorra 2Bros Take on Addorra was by all accounts a well supported attempt to assist these guys in leaving a mark on the international stage and help them to achieve a goal. Many Hubbers stepped forward and offered support in the way of spare parts, much needed funding and moral support. The net result was a 15th for Jono and a 38th for Chris (who crashed twice in his race run) So..... what's been happening since then? Well.... a lot actually and at the same time, not enough.... The boys and their father have relocated to PMB to be close to where the action is and allow the boys to train at the WC track as well as ride Cascades and all the awesome mountain biking around the area every day. Mom is still living and working in Durban so they only get to hook up as a family on weekends. The results speak for themselves though. The hard work and sacrifice is paying off! Chris is home schooling to concentrate on training and racing and Jono is focusing full time on training and racing. 2Bros Racing is a brand. (Much like Atherton Racing and I am pretty sure that is where the idea came from. Marc can correct me if I am out of line). It does however leave the impression that they are a sponsored team. This is not the case. Couldn't be further from the truth. The reality is that 2Bros Racing is a family concern that funds most of their requirements from the grocery budget with a little assistance from friends and family. They are riding dated equipment yet still kicking @ss and taking names. Imagine what they could achieve with the right tools........ Over the years there has been some generous assistance from some good people. These guys however are at the stage now where they need more that a few excess spare parts that came from someone's garage or a donation of a few hundred rand towards race entries and transport. They need proper sponsors! This is an opportunity to take your product/brand overseas and have it showcased by two very bright stars. These guys ARE that good. They have often been referred to as the next big thing in SA Downhill. I have a Sponsorship proposal that is unfortunately too big to upload. However if you know anybody that can assist these two guys or you are able to help in anyway, please PM me and I will send it to you via email. There is an opportunity here to help two rising stars! Really hoping that they can hook up with a few sponsors that can assist with equipment, travel, nutrition, clothing, etc. If we could finance the whole package, take some pressure off the family and help these guys achieve a dream that would be awesome! There was a lot of positive response from the gravity community last year. Here's hoping that we can follow through on some of those ideas Contact details are as follows: Website: 2Bros Racing They also have a face book page and if anybody wants to chat to Marc (Their Dad and Manager), please PM me and I will give you his contact details. PLEASE guys!!! Lets help these boys!!!!!
  4. So it's round 2 of the XCO World Cup today. The women elites ride at 11am and the men elites at 2pm. There's a decent South African showing at this round. Anyone found the confirmed start list. Seems to be too well hidden for me on the UCI website this year.
  5. A continuation of training to be the worlds best in Cross Country Mountain Biking.

  6. The Val di Sole track in Italy is a brutally technical maiden. Packed with slippery roots and plenty of rocks, it drops steeply through the forest into the valley floor. The 2,200m long course has had a facelift for 2015, with more line choices and northshore added to the classic track. Click here to view the article

  13. Following the Alfredo Binda World Cup and the Women's Tour of Flanderson Sunday, the UCI has announced that The Sufferfest, producers of indoor cycling training videos, will become the first major sponsor of the UCI Women Road World Cup. With the World Cup races to be broadcast on channels such as the BBC [united Kingdom], RAI Sports [italy], NOS [Netherlands] and Canal + [France], the partnership is a sign of the UCI's commitment to grow women's racing and ensure wide exposure of the sport. http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/the-sufferfest-announced-as-major-sponsor-of-the-uci-women-road-world-cup

  16. What was initially thought to be a dry weekend quickly turned around as riders met slippery conditions and had to adjust their strategies to suit the wayward weather. The practices on the dry courses couldn't prepare the riders from either XC or Downhill for what the actual race runs would be like. Click here to view the article
