BuffsVintageBikes Posted January 9, 2023 Posted January 9, 2023 Sad to see no Social Team option of 12 riders this year, that was always a lot of fun for us. leon_pro 1
Velouria Posted January 9, 2023 Posted January 9, 2023 I've been trying to ignore this event, yet here I am. I've said never again about 10 times to this event. I've retired 3 times. But maybe there is one more race in me? Such a lekker event! Jewbacca 1

And now neither want to budge! WaldoZ and Hairy 2
