2:07 - Continental X-king 2.4's - I was the guy smelling like a shebeen - it didn't help that I had the worst hangover of my  live the 1st 10km. Never ever am I going to the waterfront with my friends the day before the race - never again. I was so relieved when I woke up the morning before the race and remembered it was made shorter.

Trained on a road bike but took out the mtb for this short one.

1:32 out of 2F with ardent knobblies.

Wonder what the guy with the titan fat bike did out of 2D?

What this thread has taught me is that I have to train more (or I'm just plain slow). Did 2h00.49 with slicks in my first CTCT from 7H (I think that was the group that got the worst of the head wind  :whistling: )

Michael was in 1C. He's a powerful rider. On a road bike he'd be lethal.

 

Must be the same guy I saw, cos I was in 1C and did a 1:10. I had to put in a full sprint at the end just so I beat him.

He must be a machine! Averaging 40kms is no mean feat especially on a mtn bike.

Super kudos to that oke

Slotted in with the wife at 2F having had too much Jaggers and beer at Newlands we still managed a 2:11 with baggies, knoblies on 1x10 setups  :thumbup:

1:50 from 4G.

 

Still regret having put on slicks for a paltry 47kms - but hey, back to proper riding this weekend (if I can find anywhere that is still unravished by fire...). 

 

Anybody know what the latest status of trails around Grabouw is?  Recall there having been some fires out that way last week...
