Tri-Nitro-T Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 The guy in The Hub kit made me feel like I was on a sunday cruise. He passed me at about 30km in the half marathon but I am sure he was doing the 70kmIS this the guy in a dual Scott-Genius with the skate board helmet on...
Hennie VR Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 (edited) IS this the guy in a dual Scott-Genius with the skate board helmet on... I know he rode a Scott but cant remember if it was a Scale or Genius, and as far as I recall he did not wear a skate board helmet........Nope, definitely not a skate board helmet.

BarHugger Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 Mine was a Garmin Edge 800. It was actually quite funny. On that steep rocky downhill section, with the three black arrows, at about 30km when I went over the handle bars. My Garmin came off my bike. A guy and his wife or girlfriend that helped me back up put the Garmin back on my bike. When I started riding again the screen said lost the scale. I still remember laughing because I ride a Scott Scale. Thanks to those two riders that helped me. I have torn the ligaments where my collarbone joins onto the shoulder. Doc says 6 weeks no riding. My wife thinks this is heaven and thinks I should fall off more often. Those last 10 km's were not fun. Have a look at this thread.....similar experiences. https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/129517-ac-ligament-shoulder-separation/page__hl__ac%20joint?do=findComment&comment=2021971 Good healings!!
Andyr249 Posted November 6, 2013 Posted November 6, 2013 I thought it was a great ride for my first Trailseeker marathon. I really enjoyed it. Rode everything except part of that very rocky section near the end. Tried to ride as much of it as possible but then people around me were walking so had to get off and walk as well. 3:09 from F so happy with that. With my Edge 500 I got 739m ascent.
