Where will they be riding for the rest of the race? Is it possible to make up 9 min with the remaining terrain?

 

Nino's home turf around Helderberg and Stellenbosch. Nino knows most of those trails like the back of his hand. I expect him to take at least 6 minutes from the rest on Friday and Saturday.

Doesnt fit at the moment. I got fat after completing it... :D

 

"What do you mean I can't have 3 burgers and 2 cokes... just finished the Epic, man. You know the toughest MTB race in the world? Probably the toughest overall sporting event in the galaxy. Check here, on my shirt, says finisher. So ja, I can basically eat what I want, when I want."

From the footage it looks like nino and lars couldnt get the tyre off the rim to tube it. Rookie error. It might be that they are to used to the XC circuit where the tech zone is never too far away

 

Rookie error?  :eek:  :clap:  :whistling:

Spaz riders don't know how to ride their tyres, and Nino n Co are rookies

rookie error in terms of fixing their tyre. I did not mean they are rookie riders. Big difference

Might be right.

 

I saw Peter Sagan battle to just get his chain back on his back over the weekend. Support car pulled in and got it done in a couple of seconds  :clap:

also, in the photo it looks like a tubolito, if you know what this is, you'll see its not a normal tube.

 

its an amazing piece of kit.
