Giba Gorge Gravity Enduro - 13th July 2013 - incl trail vids

[nigelhicks]

Should we not take it upon ourselves, find a spot or two and get together with the right people to get some events together to follow in the foot steps of the enduro at Giba this weekend?

 

Go for it ... what about Thaba? you dont really have much elevation, but to host a fun event it should be ok ....

I had to check the "unfiltered" section on trailtag for my stage 3 time. Goes on your tag code. Gives your start stop time. Just a heads up.

I've edited the final results by adding position numbers on the right. I hope that I got it right

WOW! well done on the pretzel wheel

 

I think if that happened to me I'd still be lying there now

That was my second pretzel of the day

 

Borrow that wheel from KT cycles after I hit a tree and took out my own front wheel and that one just collapsed mid corner throwing me over the front and into an awesome pillow like bush haha

Jeez, that jasper 'the flying dutchman' on his old school hardtail titanium bike absolutely motored down those trails.

HAHA! not you best day riding then

 

On stage 3 I lost it coming out of one of the hair pin turns, front wheel washed away and I went over the bars. Lucky I have ninja like reflects and managed to stay on my feet. I did laugh as I ran for about 10 meters before stopping to turn around, pick up bike and carry on.

 

That does not even come close to you man, You win I would not try and beat your score

Hahaha! Such a cool event with awesome campfire stories!

 

I am just super great full for my legend of a mate that helped me each time to get the bike going! After two rims he beat my original wheel from pretzel to crinkle cut so I could just roll our last stage and complete the event and just have fun! Doing so he almost sacrificed completing the event himself! What a legend!!!

[Beer4Recovery]

Here is my Stage 1 run. Went over the bars 6min in, luckily not too bad.

Had a look at the course preview videos of Nigel again, jeesh, compared to mine it looks like I'm standing still

Was great fun though, learned a lot.

 

WATCH IN HD MODE PLEASE!

hahahahahaha that crash is awesome! .... Dude - did you not see the arrows before saying that there was a sharp turn coming up?

[nigelhicks]

??? thats strange ....

 

That timing system is a good idea but they need to work out the kinks in it ... it made a couple of good buggerups ...

[Nicko]

What an awesome event this was!!!! Really really well done to the organizers, thanks Nigel for all your hard work!!! hands down the best event I've ever done. Giba is incredible!!!

 

Managed to get into top 30, which I'm pretty stoked about, given it was my first enduro ever and I was riding an xc bike!!!

 

 

Nigel was there time to pre-ride the courses? I don't know if there was, but I didn't get a chance to and I reckon if I did I could have cut times susbstantially. Or is the course supposed to be like a surprise?
