Nancy Drew Posted September 26, 2012 Share The 90km list keeps getting longer For those that are joining me just to the top and back (57kms), I can confirm that it will be S L O W..... I spent the whole long weekend being sick with bronchitis. I'm hoping that I'll be ok enough to crawl to the top and back..... so never fear, you can all use me as an excuse..... let's just hope that the 90km people don't catch us on their return!! anyhow, the list has been updated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nancy Drew Posted September 26, 2012 Share I'm realy, realy sorry Nance. Please forgive me? Oh, ok.... I guess I can overlook it this once..... DON'T DO IT AGAIN!!!!! I'll have to select someone else from the 90km group to lead the way..... Agteros 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agteros Posted September 26, 2012 Share If someone can bring a driver, I will offer my bakkie as support vehicle to carry all the extras, food, water, spares….proper 4x4 with real decent ground clearance? It will NOT get back up the other side otherwise.Anyway support, is nice, but the 90km ride can be done solo with a camelbak and extra water bottle and some sarmies (optional). oooh, and a few jellie beans won't hurt either. Take some money along for quarts/coke/chips/cookies/whatever you can find(not a huge selection!) at the shebeen on the other side Edited September 26, 2012 by RoboCyclist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stefanh Posted September 26, 2012 Share proper 4x4 with real decent ground clearance? It will NOT get back up the other side otherwise. Sorry, I’m a breedt’s virgin, don’t know the place at all. I have a 4x2 with diff-lock with ample clearance. The driver could always stay put for the group to return and the join in again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The driver could always stay put for the group to return and the join in again. It's very decent of you to offer Stefanh.... the driver would be waiting for a very long time though as only the first +- 30kms is 'driveable'... unless by someone who has proper 4x4 experience. the 90km can be done without support (unless there is a serious mechanical issue)- there is a tap at the shebeen to re-fill bottles/camelbaks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MtbBarbie Posted September 26, 2012 Share Sorry Nancy, looks like the group I'm riding with wants to start at 6 from Van Gaalens so I'm sure we'll see you out on the road somewhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The driver could always stay put for the group to return and the join in again.....and we must pedal that terrain????? .... NOt sure what I am looking forward to the most - needing a leg replacement after or negotiating terrain that will give a 4x4 a run for its money...... maybe it rains?
