Philogene and Fourie claim downhill spoils at SA Cup 2

[News bot]

The second round of the KZNMTB Provincial DOWNHILL Series – presented by Greg Minnaar Cycles doubled up as the second round of the 2016 South African DHI Cup Series and Giba Gorge MTB Park pulled out all the stops to create a scintillating venue for downhillers from all over the country as the South African sun and very technical course took no mercy on the prisoners of the track.

I see that crusty old bugger beat you, Mark...

 

Looked like a brilliantly technical track from the pics I've seen!

Ha ha, ja Nige smoked me on his home track. Cyril Spence from JHB also beat me with his first run, but since the above article is in relation to the National series, I in theory managed a 2nd as Cyril & Craig Paul both crashed in their 2nd race runs. CSA has pretty much axed DH so to keep costs down 2 regional events from the Western Cape and 2 regional events from KZN double up as National events, which can make things quite confusing. 

 

So to clarify the regional event (in KZN) is based on the best of 2 race runs. The national event only uses your 2nd race run for the national series so my consistency worked for me here.
