Kranswurm Posted October 24, 2017 Share I have come to the conclusion you can never be fit enough for those Magoebaskloof mountains and forests I have done the classic many years ago and it was great.Some years later we did a race that went out from Haenertsberg village towards the WolkbergNow that one taxed my sense of humour nickc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildwindfr Posted October 24, 2017 Share Great to see some hubbers going. Will be doing the 80. The last race of the season for Limpopo colours. Did the Mooketsi this past weekend and it was tough. Will need to take it easy and just try and finish this one. Some big climbs in Magoebaskloof. Will be on a Momsen AL329 grey in PPCC colours (red). nickc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EZRider Posted October 25, 2017 Share Been off the Hub for a while but been on my bike quite a bit.Still in love with my Santa Cruz, just gave her an eagle facelift!Are you coming all the way to ride the 40? Come join us on the long one and get your moneys worth!Either way I’ll buy you a beer afterward ???????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickc Posted October 26, 2017 Share Glad to see you still a Sram boy - also upgraded my Flash to Eagle I am riding the 40km with my boss - they say that MTB is the new golf, so instead of playing golf with the boss I am riding MTB with him - better let him beat me. Plus I suppose 40km at Magoebaskloof is like 80km anywhere else If I am only doing 40km do I get half a beer then Edited October 26, 2017 by nickc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
