DIPSLICK Posted December 1, 2014 Posted December 1, 2014 Ya, me too. Like Gauteng's version of Trans Baviaans. "Trans Emalahleni"honestly i would rather do it with a few mates than as an event, the no D1CK rule would apply,make it much more fun
Vinnydabutcher Posted December 1, 2014 Posted December 1, 2014 Also check out : Cullinan2Tonteldoos MTB https://www.facebook.com/groups/807699629280361/ We did the pre-ride a few months ago. Not quite 300km, but close. All in one go!
MTBc Posted December 1, 2014 Posted December 1, 2014 honestly i would rather do it with a few mates than as an event, the no D1CK rule would apply,make it much more fun yep. was referring more to the ride than any formal organized event.

Mojoman Posted December 1, 2014 Posted December 1, 2014 Who names a town Tonteldoos? Take away the N+1 rule and you end up with the type of guys you totelly don't want to ride with.We went to a small festival there some years ago and they had some wicked Mampoer! When my friend opened the bottle at the back of the car we all just about passed out from the fumes!

A `Tonteldoos` is actually a box (yes i know) containing fires starters of flint in ye `lo `Front Pullers (Voortrekkers) days. They have a great highlands festival every year and this event is to co-inside with it. As Mojoman says - watch your drink - those highlanders are crazy!

So English equivalent is "tinderbox" I guess. That mampoer sounds like a reward worth riding for!
