Thanks for the lekker jol yesterday gents. Was dreaming of the ride on my flight back to PTA. See CT in 3-4 weeks, we must do another shuttle

[Pikey]

yeah, I'm happy with the fact that the vid didn't suck! Normally it's a case of "AWESOME RUN!!! Lemme check the vid!" followed by "Oh. Yeah, I'm not gonna publish that..."

ha ha exactly ..but that was sweet. Makes me want to ride ✊

Yet another hubber I've met yet can't place. Name?

The drop further down before the small tabletop is about 1.2m to flat.

So Myles and all the others who do shuttles .... how safe is one's bike on the racks going up ... the odd unfortunate paint chip is one thing, but I am rather scared of getting a scratch on the fork

Your's truly... With Eddy Gordo in the background.

 

 

Following Taahir down the trail

 

And then my best run of the day, bar one which I didn't manage to get on tape. That's Thermophage talking about Next SL cranks at the end. 

 

 Nice vid but you okes need to speed up yo! If you aint falling you ain't going fast enough...or at least that's how I'm justifying my dirt eating session on the small stuff lower down...thank goodness for the body armor

On which drop - the one on C line just before that little table, or the one just before the wall ride?

 

Will look out for next time.

LOL. Had a moment when you or Luke were chasing me. 

[nox1111]

who took fastest time of the day on strava?  Time for a bit of stravastalking - want to see where I measure up to you guys.

What time do you finish up in the afternoon? Keen to pull through for a post work sesh in Paarl? I work super close to the trails, so ride it every now and then before heading home after work. I pedal up and down though - we'll have to see how good that reign can climb...

Safe enough...but bike's are meant to get scratched occasionally dude...

Depends on how well you protect it.

Forks are untouched, apart from a couple of rubs on the crown - something that needs to be sorted with a bit of strategic padding. The pool noodles do a fantastic job, but degrade after a while. Best alternative so far is inner tubes, but that could get expensive at R 30 - R 40 a tube.
