Are those tracks being used, or growing over?

Hi BSG, yes ended up in Outeniqua strand. This is going to take a while [emoji2357] - Hope I make it home before 2021...

 

In the meantime, I can think about worse places to be stuck during this time. Very safe here in terms of the virus as well. Still many local riders to meet [emoji6]

Yes I saw a few at De Dekke Spar this morning. I just couldn't get myself to cycle yet, so bloody lazy. [emoji468][emoji2957]

Excuse the terrible photoshop hackup.

 

On the rollercoaster to bapsfontein.

We always ride our mtbs when we do that road so we can ride on the gravel shoulder

Pretty well maintained as guests use it for walks in the forest. It’s a working dairy farm but has pretty upmarket accommodation. Comes at a price but it’s also on the 7 passes road which means tons of options. Even has a little pump track. Oh and it’s in an indigenous forest.

[SwissVan]

how did your times compare on the climb?

 

HA...not so good!

 

My road bike time was 24:32 for the 2.9 km.... currently lying 9th out of 12

TBH the 34-32 gearing was hard for me.... i like to spin not grind, a 34 would have been better 

Fastest road bike time so far is 12:58

 

Competition runs until 14 June and I still aim to do the MTB and run version...

Are you up near Hoekwil? Jake Crowthers place?

Yup, that’s the place.

[Jewbacca]

Yup, that’s the place.

Hahahaha awesome. That is a magical spot.

 

If you see an old man wandering around in his undies near Nagenoegt looking lost, that would be my old man seeing out the lock down there.

 

Nice playground to have on your doorstep!

Yesterday was MTB day. A mate of mine showed me a newly built trail I hadn't ridden yet.

Unfortunately we had to cut our ride short as he got a flat and had to push further.

 

I'm really fortunate with where I live and how much of our local trail network falls into my 5km radius.

[gummibear]

awesome ...... love the countryside greenery look.

So do i but dying from hay fever at the moment,

And today was roadie Sunday.

We managed to do a proper 37km ride with 430m of climbing within our 5km radius.

I realised once again today I don't have climbing legs anymore, or it might be the extra 15kg's I have to haul around my waist.....[emoji848]
