Happy to do the lite stages and or the the full I might be keen to join this group on the 3rd. This will be my first WC enduro so keen to check out what I'm in for. I've entered the full and I'm on an acoustic bike. Wannabe and Meezo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep - we called it and all's we get is a "no, no, no, not that line". In hindsight we should've known. MORNE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie Stewart Posted November 23, 2022 Share @Warren Melissa Go Riding I had to smile at Melissa saying that there's no shame in using the battery to get up the hills. She knows what she is talking about. Now, if only I had a battery . . . MORNE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would this be a hinderance? 5 hours ago, Headshot said: Are they smoothish - wondering if my steel HT might be the deal for this? I reckon you'd easily be able to do this event on a hardtail. The trails are smooth and there is not much in the way of technical obstacles. I will admit that the only unknown at present is the DH line, but it doesn't strike me as especially hard judging from the W&M vid.

I will admit that the only unknown at present is the DH line, but it doesn't strike me as especially hard judging from the W&M vid. I see the tracks have been added. The DH line is also smoothish - I've raced it before, but takes a lot of commitment to go fast. There are variations to the line so it may avoid some of the features I suspect.

Jewbacca Posted November 24, 2022 Share It's definitely all rideable on a hardtail. Any idea of time frame on the day? Like start time and whether I can do it and be back in Muizenberg by lunch time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisF Posted November 24, 2022 Share 20 hours ago, Graham S said: Ok awesome, watched W&M video now and looks pretty doable tbh. I will enter after pay day and try get a practice run in on the 3rd or 4th. Not so keen on going in blind 😅 Uhm jaaaaa ..... @Warren Melissa Go Riding cameras tend to smooth out the trail ..... aaaaand it levels out the decents .....

I'm guessing if it's a tardy 08:30 start i will be pressed for time. 3 and a half hrs to get around the course? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and I can see you riding from Muizies to Paarl, smashing the HT category, then riding home. Although with dad duty that'll be a bit more challenging. Also you may need to put gears on.

Graham S Posted November 24, 2022 Share I see there is now a big shuttle day hosted by Hell Send on the 3rd at Plaisir.... I've never been there before so debating the shuttle day and then just going blind into the enduro on the 10th 👀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
