Joe Low Posted December 10, 2007 Share I wonder if I can interest anyone in a happy topic today? I know it's early, but after this week the holidays take hold with a vengeance, and it'd be good to hear what blew back your hair this year. For me it was riding in Suikerbosrand and seeing jackals at the top of the the 1st hill in the grass and then running ahead of me on the road - happended a couple of times. Just like that Kevin Costner film umm: The WitnessWaterworldRobin Hood Dances with wolves, only they were jackals... and we weren't dancing.

Guest colonel Posted December 10, 2007 Share I learnt alot about people and their character this year by being involved in cycling and that to me was worth something. Other than that I had fun riding my scoot. colonel2007-12-10 02:40:42 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1hill@aTime Posted December 10, 2007 Share i would say suikerbos as well, two weeks ago we rode there we saw some wild life not sure what they are, but the best was the downhill close to the end, there must have been about 12 zebra's running alongside us. my next best was my great 94.7 time, it wasn't the greatest, but i knocked 2hrs off my last years time, so for me it was just perfect. also meeting a great group of people, who i would never have met if it wasn't for thehub.

Eugene Posted December 10, 2007 Share Hopefully last December counts. Had to dive into the bushes when 3 frenzied giraffe came hurtling towards us after taking a wrong turn at an Xterra event. Then there was the camel.......I was driving the sweeper vehicle at a club race and the last rider had to swerve for a camel that came charging across the road.

Buff Posted December 10, 2007 Share Wow, so many to choose from... but guess the 5 day tour of the Overberg by MTB culminating in the 7weekspoort mtb challenge takes the cake followed closely by surviving another year in SA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bored girl Posted December 10, 2007 Share I think I had a great first year on the bike (oh it's actually not a full year yet ) I met some great people, did some amazing races and got to travel to places to do them. I camped.......that's saying a lot believe me I got to taste the results of hard work and that only motivates me to work harder. Got some very nice results at my races too But I think the best is that I made a decision to try it and stuck to it.....a year down.....how many to go.....only time will tell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tumbleweed Posted December 10, 2007 Share doing cycle mashatu in june was almost the highlight for me. four days of glorious riding in botswana, sleeping under a tree in the middle of a gamepark. the drinks at sunset on the last night blew me away. but any ride with my sons was (and is) a highlight.

Man with no name Posted December 10, 2007 Share For me' date=' 2007 had some awesomely unbelievable highlights Winning Kremetart Overall as well as 30-39 Vets [/quote'] Definately that one... the day when Dilbert didn't give a toss about tension, structural damping, watts per kg etc etc etc, but did what I know he does best.... getting in a break and ripping the legs off his opponents. Love your work. For me... two tandem podiums and learning a lot about Vets racing from guys like nochain, spinnekop, 101% etc. Viva 2008 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
