Seems we are three that go have a nice braai this weekend. Cant wait 

[Pants Boy]

Bunch of club mates are also going camping - come look for the 'maniyaks'

Also a little unknown gem of an event.....usually relative small field.........nice track and scenery, and before we forget, with some seriaaas thorns. Bummed that we will miss this one.......family responsibilities (aka school exam preparation). 2012 was the extremely wet and muddy one, last year was hot.......again with big mud patches. Mud for this year maybe.......?

Excellent MTB race, Definetly a must do event  

 

Good  jeep tracks, single tracks, water, sand, ugly uphills mountain suffering walks, wet water crossing, 

 

Enough waterpoints

 

Well organised. lot of Marshall's, well marked,

 

Pity Toyota withdraw sponsorship at the last moment.

Pity Toyota withdraw sponsorship at the last moment. 

Yeah I'd love to hear their side of the story.

 

Loved the 'race' - I towed my two girls in a trailer on the 12km route and finished DFL (maybe had to do with my two boys on BMX's that also did it)

 

Camping was great and peacefull as always, will not skip this one ever again.
