The Bull Shark Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 XC riders cleaned up on this year's Epic. As Fumic said, they are the real MTBrs.

kosmonooit Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 XC riders cleaned up on this year's Epic. As Fumic said, they are the real MTBrs. Although it should be said the field of pro elite marathon riders was not that deep, many of the big names in this Epic game are past there peak (with due respects) What I really enjoyed was road legends Cuddles, Big G and Purito having a blast and doing well.
Rick Sanchez Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 Not a good year for past champions. Team Bulls finishing 12th and Ariane and Partner in 5th. Lakata and Hynek not really featuring this year. They all must be pretty disappointed. Not bad for Sauser after coming back from retirement, though, and well done to Schurter and teammate

mikkelz Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 They should not finish on Polo fields then. Is the Polo club in need of funds that the Epic had to finish there? I miss the Grand Finale at Lourensford. And they used to have a race for us poor people on the day just so we could also feel the vibe. I think it was sponsored by Liquifruit then. That used to be such a fun event (the Lourensford MTB ride).
Mntboy Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 Sooo Proud, my Pops becomes the oldest finisher at Epic ever, 70 years old AND 281st overall. Give that man a Vodka and Coke!!!Well done to your dad! I think you owe him a case of his favourite beer! Sent from my SM-J200H using Tapatalk
scotty Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 Wonder how many draadsitters will now walk past the Spez Concept Stores and rather put bucks down on the better Scott Sparks? The Spez boys got their asses handed to them on plate. They should let their Saffa techies handle their tyre choices next time.Or realize its cool to fit saddle bags now that they know Nino does.
peetwindhoek Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 Sad sight to see Platt so far back.I was rooting for him (actually his bar ends...)

FootballingCyclist Posted March 26, 2017 Posted March 26, 2017 Worked at the Epic from Thursday till Saturday at Oak Valley, They could definitely host the finish there.. Such a great venue, Thoroughly enjoyed working at the Epic.. I am only a road cyclist but seems after being there and having plenty interaction with majority of the riders, A small bug of curiosity has bitten me and I might just actually enter next year depending on how training goes(keeping in mind I have NEVER ridden on a mtb before). But I am going to start soon and who knows, perhaps next year I will be there as a cyclist and not working there! I must say though, CONGRATS to ALL THE riders, I saw some very badly beaten up cyclists over the course of my stay there!!
