Slowbee Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 This has to be the best feeling in the world for these okes. Imagine how nice that first cold frostie is going to taste.... and for us - it is an amazing feeling watching them
Slowbee Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 they will have about and hour and half to spare - the perfect ride ! but the wind is blowing ALOT - so they need all the time they can get
Slowbee Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 the 3 w's have less than 3 km's to go common boys ! I hope you guys get told about this thread...know how much support you have from a total bunch of strangers
Shebeen Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Why not enter the Tankwa Trek 3 day Stage MTB Race then you can do both in Feb?you can't tankwa trek is in the koue bokkeveld. The transkaroo goes through the tankwa karoo however. I'm a geography equivalent of a grammar nazi, so excuse me!
Bianchi Baby Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 the 3 w's have less than 3 km's to go common boys ! I hope you guys get told about this thread...know how much support you have from a total bunch of strangersI was thinking the exact same thing.........would be cool to hear from them on here after they wake up next week ????????????????
Slowbee Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 just refreshed again and the first of the W's is in, which must mean they are all in as they have been riding together. just over an hour and a half to spare!! awesome riding guys ... just awesome
Shebeen Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 The Tankwa Padstal https://youtu.be/1xJlLsAKZPMthat's before the fire /arson. haven't been there since it was rebuilt. It was amazing so I expect they did a damn fine job on the resurrection http://karoospace.co.za/tankwa-padstal-will-rise/
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 can you imagine cresting Bainskloof this morning after over 1000km? Getting Goosebumps just thinking about it.Absolutely... I'd probably cry.
River Rat Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 If they're riding together and doing a correction for the tracker lag, they're home! I imagine the bond between father and son was strong before they started at 9 am yesterday but I think today the de Klerks are unbreakable. WIm Dedericks has just given me the inspiration to consider attempting this race.
Jensie Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Yeah....great stuff. Must have been an amazing journey. Would like to hear all their stories of pain and grit and sommer als.

WIm Dedericks has just given me the inspiration to consider attempting this race. :clap: , as if you were not considering. first time in a long time I put the foot down and told the Mrs, rather than asked the mrs, barring ill health, I will be on the start line
Slowbee Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 now we just need nathrix with the pictures and we are sorted
Rocket-Boy Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Watching 3 trackers of three people I dont know - and i can't stop refreshing!!! Go WWW, you're SO close to the top!I know exactly what you mean, they were just names I didnt know before and after the amount of watching and silent cheering I have been doing they have become very familiar, like I have a bit of me invested in their ride.
