Isuzu 3 Towers stage race - Advice needed


Mr SingleTrack

Recommended Posts

Who's going?

 

Any suggestions on tyres that I should run. From the photos it seems it could get quite rocky out there though I cannot say if this is only true for their DH tracks or also for the stage race.

 

Any advice on training would also be appreciated. I assume I need to spend some time working on my climbing?

Im in for the second year now :clap:

 

Its like riding at Thaba trails but with much BIGER and longer climbs , so the tyres you use there will be great at 3 towers.

 

and yes bring your climbing legs !!!!!!!

Awesome race going onto my 3rd year. This time SS bike. Going to test some gearing options out next weekend. Nothing like a new challenge.

Lots of ups lots of downs and very little flats :-)

Sounds like my kind of race. Flat = boring

Thank you for reminding me. I will be demanding cake from you after each stage to aid in my recovery!

it's still a long way out but we should organise a group ride before the event for a meet and greet. We can do an easy ride for guys to do a final gear test or something. I for one would like to meet some of the hubbers that are going
