Shebeen Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 I see that even more money is being pumped into the famous Plum Pudding trail for the prologue. R80k was spent in this area in October/November last year and now its getting a further buffing. This section of trail is hands down the most expensive piece of MTB real estate there is. And its a hiking trail too. Priorities, priorities. it was very rideable as Theo shows the best lines here last year https://www.facebook.com/rushsportscycling/videos/2024679100905756/ this link works directly to le bookhttps://www.facebook.com/rushsportscycling/videos/2024679100905756/

HDW Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 His temper tantrums when the chips are down are well documented. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Oh ok, I see. Then I guess that means that Novak Djokovic, Zinedine Zidane, Cristiano Ronaldo, and countless others, are mentally weak people with mental issues. I know about the incident with Anton Cooper, what other ones were there? Keen to look them up.

scuzzy Posted March 13, 2019 Posted March 13, 2019 Well, we did not really know who Howards Grotts was when he arrived here last here, and they ended up winning. It's gonna be a tough race up front, there's good teams. Hopefully everybody will stay healthy so we can see a honest races amongst the top guys.

Hopefully everybody will stay healthy so we can see a honest races amongst the top guys.How did you not know who Howard Grotts was before he rode epic last year? he has done multiple epics, won the US national jersey multiple times, represented them at the Olympics etc. And he has been part of the specialized racing team for quite some time as well... He was a very well known mountain biker before he won epic last year...

He just had a weaker partner then. Lies , damn lies and statistics.....
