Robertson Winery MTB Posted June 4, 2015 Author Posted June 4, 2015 Hi Johnny, everyone that completes the race have a choice between a medal, bottle of wine or a bottle of grape juice.
SuperDooperSnooper Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Besides, I'm looking forward to trying this out...2015-06-02 15.34.35.jpgIs that a fatty or 27.5+? Looks really cool. Wonder how it will do in the mud
freakonaleash Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Is that a fatty or 27.5+? Looks really cool. Wonder how it will do in the mud Its a fatty, 29x2.3. It's a Borealis Echo
SuperDooperSnooper Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 I'll be there riding this weekend. For my drive-train's sake I hope it is not too muddy. Already took a pounding at Darling. But mud and dirt and the outdoors are the main reasons why we like MTB, so it's always interesting to see how guys and girls perform when the conditions get more testing.
BenReaper Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Was worried about the mud and planned on taking the singlespeed and doing the shorter 50km,but was informed this morning that I would have to work on Saterday.[emoji35]
SuperDooperSnooper Posted June 4, 2015 Posted June 4, 2015 Well now, as it turns out I may not have to worry about putting my strained drivetrain through the mud. There's a good chance that I'm gonna do it all on a brand new ride! Now the dilemma - do I save a brand new set of components from the harsh baptism of fire/*mud*, or is the overwhelming urge to see what the new beast can do going to triumph? One of those nasty #firstworldproblems!
leaboy Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 to those taking part tomorrow enjoy, trust it wont be too much of a mudfest....
BrandonF_ Posted June 5, 2015 Posted June 5, 2015 to those taking part tomorrow enjoy, trust it wont be too much of a mudfest....I will stop,..and carry my bike over every puddle of mud as I have no intentions of racing, being my first ride in two weeks (literally), and a chilled weekend after some crazy work days, at the inlaws in Worcester
Robertson Winery MTB Posted June 5, 2015 Author Posted June 5, 2015 The weather is looking great and and the our guys worked till late out on the routes to make sure this ride is as much fun as possible. We've built bridges over water crossings and rerouted smaller sections where necessary but all in all, the route is looking great! We are very proud of our guys who built 4 brand new routes in 4 months and managed to overcome this weeks crazy weather. Please make sure to stay for a glass of wine afterwards! Safe riding tomorrow....see you out there!
