fanievb Posted December 11, 2017 Share Not a good way to end your race, did you try and use a gator and tube? put some gorilla tape on the inside followed by a tube, but the tube kept coming through the hole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grease_Monkey Posted December 21, 2017 Share Howzit guys, just entered for the 180km - will be my longest race to date, so very keen!Couple of questions for those that have done it before... - The start and finish of the 180km is in different places, if I park my car at the finish line, how do I get to the start? Is there some sort of shuttle?- Is there camping available at the finish? I'd like to come through Fri afternoon and camp the Fri and Sat night. If there is camping available, where do I book? PS I can bring my own tent if need be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAP Posted January 24, 2018 Share Funny or not, I have been placed on the waiting list - anyone with an available entry? It's because you haven't paid for the entry yet, so email them info@dryland.co.za and they will give you 48 hours to pay for your original entry.

TrailWarrior Posted March 8, 2018 Share 43 Days!! in counting...... my last big ultra training ride coming up tomorrow (Friday) start 6pm, x4 loops of +/-60km and if still feeling good by Saturday morning a 5th to make it 300km. So much rain has fallen over the past few days, the conditions of the 'groads is going to play a big part in getting this done......Thankful to be having a stronger, 36One newbie joining me........ How are the rest of you warriors coming on........ Dogs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
