eddy Posted April 24, 2018 Share You guys are an inspiration to a guy me who is only tackling the 170km of the Swartberg Gran Fondo this weekend. I'll think of you when I battle up the pass on Saturday.

hboli4 Posted April 24, 2018 Share Well done to all who attempted, finished and smashed the 36One! What a long day I had, came home just after 22.00 after 28 hours and some change on the bike. Knees started bugging after CP1 so spent almost 300km's in the paincave, a smallish one up untill Rooiberg and the mother of all Cango caves from there to the finish. Started pushing some sections on Rooiberg and realised that it helped the pain in the knees a bit so did a lot of walking on the last stage. My hands are still numb in places and apparently I have big toes but cannot feel them at this point...

TrailWarrior Posted April 24, 2018 Share On a negative note. What was it with this stone throwing incident(s) on Friday night after CP1? I saw a visitors post on FB and the person was very disgruntled with 36One organisers and -and because of one of the incidents of stone throwing and the handling of cutoff times etc. Not good. I've only had/have good things to say about this race. Still do. Its a pity Link to comment https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/168087-event-the-36one-mtb-challenge-2018/page/17/#findComment-3308931 Share on other sites More sharing options...

maidenmole Posted April 24, 2018 Share Not cool to hear about the stone throwing incidents. Look, there were a fair share of inebriated local residents next to the road in the dark on the route - one bearded chap ran out at us from nowhere with drink in hand, but he was harmless. Maybe some overzealous drinkers taking a pot shot or two for the helluvit?

Last year one of the local dogs (sure it was drinking also) tried to chow my leg off after leaving CP2, I used some language it understood to scare it off.
