Thanks dude

 

Yeah. I will definitely ride next year. Sounds like we both need some rehab in the next few weeks.

The strange thing is I made it through all the rock gardens & stuff and then bail on a flat with only a tree on the side of the track. I suppose it's not as bad as you, bailing on an open road. :blush: I think the most damage was to my ego, luckily it should recover within a few weeks.

There is one commonality between our crashes... Jason. He was chasing you and I was chasing him when they happened :lol:

It is an awesome event though. I wish more riders would embrace it. It was good fun spectating at the last chute to see the difference in speed between Bryce and the rest. Hats off to Nadia - she was by far the smoothest down there. I did walk stage 1 which made me want to ride more than ever.

 

I wanted to ask. Was my 15 year old daughter the youngest rider you've had on the Avalanche?

Yip, hats off to the Mankele boys. What a ride. I can't sleep at night - still picturing the lines & trying to improve my times. Licking my wounds & waiting just another 360 odd sleeps.

 

Yeh, well done to Nadia & all them girls, they got balls! :thumbup:

It's almost that time again!!!! The trails are looking awesome. We've made some big changes from previous years, stages are +-2km longer. Each stage is now 7km+ of fast flowing, mind blowing, adrenalin pumping, single track downhill trail riding. Stage 1 & 3 have kind of merged, stage 2 extended with more amazing mountain trails and stage 3 is brand new, with an flippen lekker 4km flowing bush tunnel.
