NEVER! I deny it categorically.

 

I also don't own a road bike. Or a track bike. Or a TT bike. And will most certainly NOT be competing at SA Duathlon Champs next month (sorry Patches).

 

Ok ok it's all true - I even have a TT helmet.

 

I'm so ashamed.

 

Bet you look silly in that drag helmet!

In my defence - the last time I used it was at a 24hour MTB race at some ungoldy hour.

 

Hmmm - that gives me an idea for a SSWC uniform....

Wearing a TT helmet on a MTB is so silly it's almost cool.

Will we be hurtling ourselves down the mountains in the Berg when they build the cable car?

Stop teasing.

I'm being serious, there is talk of it happening. Not sure if there will MTB trails though, would be awesome if they did.

This raises several questions...

 

Does the harties cable car still operate?

Is there a way to ride back down the mountain to the start?

 

We could build a mini whistler there!!!

My opinion is that when you get far enough away from being cool you re-enter "cool" from the other side...

I speak under correction, but I think it is.

Either way, it does present a brilliant opportunity for an "added value" for the area!

To answer your couple of questions...

 

1. There is a new hartees cable car system. new cable. 6 new gondolas. They still need to undergo testing and safety certification before use.

 

2. The is a way down the mountain, which the G.A.S. guys have been working hard on. Catch... it's a DH track.
