As usual a lekker event.

I was riddled with mechanicals and tyre issues, but fun none the less. Awesome people on the route, made plenty opportunity to pass without me even asking!

Fun day out. Smelly and yes I would not like to fall into those rivers yuck. Saw lots of people stopped with mechanicals, more than usual. No idea what.

It really is nothing to worry about. It's not technically a drop-off, it's a sharp descent, about 15m in length from top to bottom if that much.

Confidence and momentum, get your ass over the back wheel, and ready to hit the brakes at the bottom is all you need.

I was expecting a drop off, given that there was a B line... Left disappointed.

Think I rode behind you for a while. White On One SS with Fox baggies?

Your bike was creaking like crazy :oops:

Really fun ride and loved it.

Great etiquette on the trails, with people moving for me to pass.

DUSTY!

I got caught in the tail end of some crazy backups at the muddy spots.

Some really nice pieces of trail at BRB.
