tunariaan Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 Whats the fastest on a jeeptrack(gravel and tarr not included) that you have clocked on your gps?
deanbean Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 Hit 72km/hr on forestry roads recently, with the wind behind me.
Eddy Gordo Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 I regularly do 35/38km/h according to my cat eye on singletracks in tokai
Stretch Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 hit 74 on the weekend - but my GPS recorded a max of 71. That same ride i managed 85 (but that was on tar)
banna Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 I regularly do 35/38km/h according to my cat eye on singletracks in tokai I did that last weekend in Jonkers... just before my front wheel nipped a root and sent me flying into a tree and onto the rocks below the tree... Lesson for the day: never get too cocky on a mtbike.
Shift Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 I've done a 71 in the Contermanskloof tracks about a month ago.
amasendeinja Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 221km/h according to my Polar! The Eskom transmission lines I rode under might have something to do with that though
Garfield2010 Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 I have done 135km/h once and it was on a very technical part of the route.....
DaLoCo Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 My Garmin once had a max recorded of 210 km/h....was in my buddy's jacket pocket when he took his ZX14 for a spin
Stretch Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 Oh and it was on an Unicyclewhilst doing a 1 handed handstand
Grebel Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 61km/h coming down Sani Pass!! (after the switchbacks...!)

Eddy Gordo Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 The fastest I have been as well as a buddy on a mtb is coming down from the cable car towards town on the tar road and crossing the speeding camera at 95km/h the damn thing didnt flash
Just Keep Pedaling Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 Just a thought. Hitting a tree at 80km p/h is roughly the same as jumping off a twenty story building and landing on concrete.
