MTB_wannabe Posted October 7, 2013 Posted October 7, 2013 We missed out on doing Great Wall my China and Solky's Folly last year so hoping to experience this year. Magical riding Sniffie 1
Sniffie Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 (edited) Old Solly is grumpy at the best of times, not sure he's going to like it when you rename him Solky. I have to agree with you GWMC and Solly's are magical. I have done them a couple of times, but not in races, this will be the first time in an actual race. Last year in early April the wind was blowing a gale while on GWMC, got a bit scary at places... Edited October 8, 2013 by Sniffie

madmarc Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 Been waiting for this day to come for months. Woke up Sunday morning with flu, then noticed front shock leaking oil like the EXON VALDEZ on our morning ride WTF!!!!! doc put me on some seriaaaaas meds to get me ready for Friday Morning....now my luck i'll get asked to pee in a bottle by some dude with a white coat. A LBS assured me my shock would be ready for collection today. Having faith like potatoes and waiting for their call But come hell or high water on day 1 I will be there even if I have to walk it, so if you some dude in the start chute in takkies and no bike you'll know who I am.

Ratty Posted October 8, 2013 Author Posted October 8, 2013 2 1/2 more sleeps for me. I have to be at the airport at 5:00am on Thursday which means getting up at 4!
Sniffie Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 2 1/2 more sleeps for me. I have to be at the airport at 5:00am on Thursday which means getting up at 4!That means getting up very early 2 mornings in a row! I suppose Friday will be very early also to pack and drive to the start. Cant wait!
Sniffie Posted October 8, 2013 Posted October 8, 2013 http://www.yr.no/place/South_Africa/KwaZulu-Natal/Spioen_Kop/long.htmlWeather forecast seems to be good! Just enough drizzle to settle the dust on spioenkop, but not enough to wash away the blood and tears...
Ratty Posted October 8, 2013 Author Posted October 8, 2013 That means getting up very early 2 mornings in a row! I suppose Friday will be very early also to pack and drive to the start. Cant wait! We are staying close to the start, will pack everything we can the night before so thats not an issue, but I cleverly planned a bad seeding, that way I start a lot later :-) Dusty 1
