Sparkles Posted May 15, 2017 Share First timer. 50miler. Looking forward to this! So: Dual Suss, HT or Gravel Grinder? Edit: I'm a rider not a racer. Middle of the pack at best and currently leaning towards the DS as i think many km's of corrugated gravel might take its toll towards the end. Definitely DS if you are not racing. The corrugation makes it feel as if your brain is shaking inside your skull. Ferro 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor Buttox Posted May 15, 2017 Share Definitely DS if you are not racing. The corrugation makes it feel as if your brain is shaking inside your skull.And with the drought it will be worse... I went for a jaunt on a dirt road around Atlantis the other day and my gear cable snapped,it was that brutal. (Not sure if the cable was corrugation related, but it felt like it!)

Ferro Posted May 21, 2017 Share Enjoyed the 50miler. I found the last 20km was rather tough. MASSIVE respect for the 100miler riders! Erik Kleinhans rode past me at about 55km into my ride so 135km into his. Up the hill and away into the distance like it was nothing. First time i ever see a gravel grinder with a lauf fork. Seriously cool looking machines. AJG and Mamil 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lizzard30 Posted May 21, 2017 Share Yes i agree the last 20km has broken my back.. started of way to fast. I cramped up with 3km to go.. Mamil and Ferro 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oufy MTB (Roadie) Posted May 21, 2017 Share Did the 100 miler. My garmin finished on 163km. I saw the board that says 1 mile to go. That must have been the longest mile in my life. Great event, everything everybody said about the event is true,especially the last stretch. Perfect weather, was my first and definitely not my last. Kudos to those that was on the start line Iwan Kemp, Mamil, Ferro and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
