NotSoBigBen Posted July 31, 2016 Posted July 31, 2016 Suikerbosrand was sooo windy today it blew me all over the road. I think snaking is the word trail-er-park used. Found it difficult at some times just to hold on. As for the last climb into the wind...it hurt just a little. Was a tough ride at sbr today,always the most rewarding but only when you done.Did a TT on the John Boscoe course at 12 ...the most unsafe I've ever felt on a bike! That disc wheel and a cross wind [emoji15] had to sit up a few times as I felt I'd be blown off otherwise! Sent from my HUAWEI VNS-L31 using Tapatalk Frosty 1

Pikey Posted July 31, 2016 Posted July 31, 2016 Keeping with the technical riding theme of this weekend, the missus and I ventured to Thaba in ve souf.Have not been out there is a very long time, and boy were we pleasantly surprised! So much fun, adrenaline pumping leg shattering fun.We did all the blue today, I think.Was hoping Wendell had some lemons at the shop, so I can get the smile off my dialOn the left you will see some numbers on the signboard, my legs are convinced it's the amount of metres ascent on that loop, and I could not convince them otherwise.In the front there, the missus, climbing like a mountain goat. I am behind, because Im taking pictures, not because she whips my ass on the bike, no really....I'm being serious.Barrys point. Magnificent.Barrys point is proper fun .....nice one,blue is pretty tough though. Real leg & lung buster some of those short,steep climbs in blue.

Sent from my HUAWEI VNS-L31 using TapatalkWe had our club champs TT earlier this morning, on the Crit circuit. We started at 9:30 (12km only) and by the time got back into Alberhoughton (11:00) the breeze had picked up a bit.
Eddy Gordo Posted July 31, 2016 Posted July 31, 2016 Damn, I only found out this afternoon, and missed out on the Jonkers enduro today.
