Just pulled the plug. :thumbdown:

Was hoping for my 3rd in a row as well as the 10th instalment but things just didn't work out. Will be back next year though.

I am out, took a tumble and did my wrist again. :cursing:

 

Sorry to hear...im trying to be carefull, but that just causes accidents sometimes

Fortuitously it was not a form of accident of any kind.

I just went into this year over trained and decided with the aid of a physio that rest would do me good. Long story short; rest, a little bit of riding, more rest and now mild flu (when I planned to start training again) has got the better of me with 4 weeks of training left.

 

Just have fun while out on the bike, no need for caution as long as you don't over estimate your ability (skills-wise.)

Doing my third Trail. Should be a blast!

 

Was a little heavy for my first one, but finished comfortably. Was 5kgs lighter last year but went in still a little sick. Nearly died. Don't know how I managed to finish but I did. Not nearly as enjoyable as the first one.

 

This year my focus is on staying healthy. The best advice I can give;

 

Rather be 100% healthy than 100% fit. If you're sick, rest and get better. If you're not as fit as you wanted to be you'll just be a bit slower, but if you're sick you are screwed.

 

Riding with a new partner who is also doing his first. Should be fun! Highlight of the year!

Third year - first Adventure.

Winter is here, out riding this morningat 4:30; East Rand and the temp was 7°!!

 

I can second that - it was freezing on the Spruit this morning before sunrise.

 

I need to get some of those winter booties and FAST!

They say plastic bags over your socks works like a charm. Have to confess that I haven't tried it though.
