[Event] 2018 UCI Mountain Bike World Cup Stellenbosch

There's a lovely low pressure system just to the southwest of SA spinning some lekka rainy clouds about.....but just as it is about to hit us these eve, it is forecasted to disintegrate. Meaning no rain, except possibly a very light sprinkling here or there

yr.no has 1.5mm predicted.

 

but windguru has none, yesterday was 3mm predicted.

 

hopeful much!

Sadly that us not even enough to make my Bakkie dirty. And the dry soil will suck it up faster than one can say "whip it Nino!"

I hope Platt did not hold you up on the single track

  I played sweeper.

 

We did a brisk ride from Coetzenburg to Mont Marie and back via G-Spot and Eden. Those damn youngsters were like a pack of dogs chasing a rabbit.

So both of our SA ladies that entered the u/23 race have had to withdraw from the race because of injuries now . Danielle Strydom fell at Sabie Classic 2 weeks ago and damaged her knee , and now yesterday Bianca Haw fell in practice on the track and a stick penetrated her calve muscle . Crap !! It's so seldom that our local riders have the opportunity to compete in World Cups without having to spend a Guptillion bucks to get there so really not lekker when they have the opportunity and then gets injured just before the race .
