Ozzie NL Posted May 17, 2016 Share Only done the short version twice, now in for the big boy loop. Hope Sani has prepared legs sufficiently  CleatsnCleavage 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worriesnot Posted May 17, 2016 Share Only done the short version twice, now in for the big boy loop. Hope Sani has prepared legs sufficiently   I've heard Sani is good training for the Monster. I'm not testing that theory just yet (my bike still in it's box from last week, but hopefully breaking free tonight for some TLC).Good luck! nonky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocknRolla Posted May 17, 2016 Share Sani is not sufficient training for the monster, well when it was still the monster... before the "new and improved" label Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzie NL Posted May 18, 2016 Share Sani is not sufficient training for the monster, well when it was still the monster... before the "new and improved" labelMe think I like the improvement part. Â Â On a different note, are the batch seedings out yet and if so where can I find them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CleatsnCleavage Posted May 18, 2016 Share Only done the short version twice, now in for the big boy loop. Hope Sani has prepared legs sufficiently  Ditto me...upgraded because the short one was too short at 45km last year and is even shorter this year. Not looking forward to the un-Sani like conditions but hey! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
