braailegend Posted October 5, 2013 Share think somewhere on Hub is a discussion on this, but don't know if it was wiped out with the "Great Crash". Maybe do a search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gummibear Posted October 5, 2013 Share Times are tough and finances are tight.Running a CX bike is expensive when you ride in the mud.I am pretty sure that a well organized race will do well and the guys can start on a mtb. All you need is a +_5km track a few obstacles and load of Schnapps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryanpmb Posted October 5, 2013 Share I would definately race. But won't buy a CX bike until there's more races here. So, don't think I'll be buying a CX bike anytime soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sitting slip Posted October 15, 2013 Share In pretoria rosemary hill will work. Midrand big red bard.....really think we should start this in our country. Just another form of cycling to get the youth going and keep them interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
