I was on my way to my daughter’s graduation in Stellies on Wednesday and was passed by Pauline Ferrand-Prévot and Julian Absalon.

I was wondering if the Stellies locals have seen any other pro mtbers in the area?

Jislaaik I hope our local road hogs don't hurt any of these world beaters

 

100% on this. Then again, there are continually reports of pros getting KO'd in Europe too. Seems that no road is a bed of roses.

Yeah, loads of pro xc riders base themselves in stellies and swest. Nino is here quite often, taking on Jonkers and others. Paula was with Pottie yesterday for a joint skills sesh in coetzenburg, Sauder based himself here for years. When it's winter in Europe, we are an excellent option for them.

That triangular thing on Absalon’s back had a water bottle tucked on the inside of it. Anyone know what it is/seen it before??
