LazyTrailRider Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 no Andrew Neethling? Hmmm, good point... Great to see Dan and Rachel on the list though, seeing as the original rumours were that they'd be giving the first round a skip.
patches Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 I also thought Tim Bentley and Brad Illingworth would be racing PMB?!
b-rad Posted April 14, 2011 Author Posted April 14, 2011 I also thought Tim Bentley and Brad Illingworth would be racing PMB?! I think they are... a number of other South Africans will also qualify to ride.
Ghostface Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 (edited) I think they are... a number of other South Africans will also qualify to ride. Andrew Neethling will be there, Shorty (Brad) will be bombing his XS Glory like there's no tomorrow and Cape Towns Stefan Garlicki is there too. Kids fast. Edited April 14, 2011 by Ghostface
Tumbleweed Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 is this going to be televised? Doubt it'll be live, but most watched it on feecaster last time.
gummibear Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 Take lots of photos of Heather Irmiger. This is a great race and worth going to watch.
MTB_Roadie Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 no Johann Potgieter? a good friend of mine and he owns SA downhill racing...also what about more SA people?
