Official race time: 4d 20h 53m. Super chuffed but nursing a very tender bottom and some floppy fingers with no sensation. What a ride that was, as dark as yesterday was, today was the exact opposite!

Any idea if there was a e-bike circus like a previous year?

Probably part of the team / relay category ...

Sjoe that will be hard... nearly everybody was crawling that last bit up Bainskloof and I assume he will be more broken than those who came before him...

Fingers crossed... anyone who completes this is a rockstar

By the time i got to Bainskloof i was out the saddle kapping a sprint, it just felt so good to be on tarmac after riding over corrugations for the best part of 4 days.  I managed to do a PR up Bainskloof with over 1000kms in my legs 🤣🙈

I am working on a race report, typing is still a challenge with numb fingers not hitting the correct keys and all. Lots of videos and photos that i shared on the whatsapp group, not sure how best to upload onto the thread?

Bainskloof is such an integral part of Munga IMO. It is like this final bit of special, the cherry on the top.

Cant wait for the race report. And ja, the hands.... good luck and give them time.

I am trying my hand at writing blogs, this seemed the most obvious in order for me to share the many photos and videos across multiple platforms.

great read!. how long into the race did your hands start having issues? do you know how long it takes for the numbness to subside after? Would love to do Munga but the hand issues concern me
