Odinson Posted December 15, 2015 Share Edit: On a serious note, these guys may be serious contenders for the Epic title, as there may not be a particularly strong field, as it is an Olympic year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaco-fiets Posted December 15, 2015 Share In my opinion Rabie is probably the best rider in the country if you take the amount of training he puts in (not much at all I am made to believe) compared to the results he gets. Imagine if he actually starts training 10hr+ per week MEYER1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryanpmb Posted December 15, 2015 Share Always a bit of downer to hear of SA teams competing for the African Leaders Jerseys... as if we've given up hope of actually winning... I understand the whole focus on one goal thing and direct your efforts towards this but these guys (and other SA (African) teams) are world class and need to believe in themselves to win this SOUTH AFRICAN race.  Good luck to the guys. I hope they achieve their goals, and more... Jaco-fiets and Oufy MTB (Roadie) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Sanchez Posted December 15, 2015 Share A question of sponsorship and support I guess. A small, local team just can't compete with these European teams, it seems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptor-22 Posted December 16, 2015 Share Edit: On a serious note, these guys may be serious contenders for the Epic title, as there may not be a particularly strong field, as it is an Olympic year.  Pro field to be finalised in January and announced with the next newsletter according to yesterday's newsletter. Rumor is a strong pro field due to the late start of the XCO season on the 23rd/24th April.Also only 6 XCO events next year 23/24 April 2016 Cairns Australia21/22 May Albstadt Germany28/29 May La Bresse France9/10 July Lenzerheide Switzerland6/7 August Mont St Anne Canada3/4 September Valnoord Andorra Edited December 16, 2015 by raptor-22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris NewbyFraser Posted December 31, 2015 Share The team owner, Japie, is a top level rally driver in a fully imported Ford costing about five bar. I wonder of the boys will get a chance to rally for him? 200kp/h on forest roads we ride on - now that is racing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shebeen Posted December 31, 2015 Share Hard to see the synergies between mtb and the company. Lots of malls in low LSM areas, but I guess tenants might just be in their target market. http://www.nad.bz/about-us.htm Always good to see new sponsors join the market Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
