Bugger that way to many metres ascent vs distance for my liking.

Think I’ll just think about it a bit more.

 

Good luck Admin Matt ????

You should be used those mountains

You should be used those mountains

You would think so

But I’ve realised

You can take the Vrystaater out of the Vrystaat

But you can’t take the plaatness out of the vrystaater

 

Maybe one day

Also Warren Price and I think Tim Ellerbeck from KZN. Warren just won the Imana Wild Ride for the 7th year in a row I think about 2 weeks ago. Looks amazing to be riding there
