Guest Sam Blake Posted July 10, 2014 Share The new track at Thaba promises to dish up loads of action for riders and spectators alike. It's a great opportunity to join beginners, weekend warriors and some of SA's best from the saddle or the sidelines.

Guest Sam Blake Posted July 10, 2014 Share Just a note that Sean is referring to the Gauteng Provincial Champs which will be held at Thaba this weekend. The details on the poster above are for the South African National Champs that will be held on the same track next weekend. Ride both if you can!

Nofearnofun Posted July 21, 2014 Share Perviously I had the opinion that a decent 150-160mm travel single crown bike was sufficient for DH in SA. Thanks to the new top section at Thaba, my opinion has changed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks to the new top section at Thaba, my opinion has changed... One of the juniors, Matt Minter did it on his single crown on the weekend and I've seen Peach crush the Cascades course on his 160mm Kalula so it is doable but I quite like the extra bit of assurance that a DH rig offers. I saw a couple shots of guys bottoming out their suspension properly on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
