dirtrider Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 Gonna spin gently anyway , 32/19 will not see me going very fast on the flats anyway , DIPSLICK 1
Peewee1 Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 Gonna spin gently anyway , 32/19 will not see me going very fast on the flats anyway , What flats? Looks like a b***h of an uphill then a crazy downhill - was told I would be sitting for the 1st 40km and standing most of the rest of the way. Oh well. Have to do it. But I'm not wearing that stupid HTFU bracelet.

divernick Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 Gonna spin gently anyway , 32/19 will not see me going very fast on the flats anyway , 32x19 it is for me too....I just wanna finish with a smile and not die out there. Enjoying the post-ride beer is more important than the finishing time.... Mike Bike 1
dirtrider Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 The Magalies Monster is really not about that climb . That is not the hard bit , the hard bits are the technical sections . The profile picture has been cropped to fit the page and that makes the climb look like the side of K2 . There are also a few other shorter climbs that will make you bleed through your eyes , and don't forget the SAND !! I am also aiming to get to the beer tent ASAP without killing myself , so most probable will be over 5 hours .
Smolly Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 Aaah. Monster this, Monster that...I'm doing the PTA east dirt roadie champs

typhoon Posted May 23, 2013 Posted May 23, 2013 @Bionic chick will be riding her first race after breaking her ankle in January, only the 20 for now, baby steps as we build the strength back up. Last years ride...was my 2nd mtb race, after Rooiberg 75 a month before.http://app.strava.co...ivities/9360887 As said, the Monster climb isn't that bad, it's the little climbs afterwards that cause much moaning. 2012 Profile: MTBc 1
