BenReaper Posted August 16, 2014 Posted August 16, 2014 My bike took me to Hopewell and then a stick got stuck between chain and cassette at 20km/h and completely wrecked the new XT RD which snapped off at the hanger. Nice 5km walk back. Damn Bullet,that is just a plain k@k thing to happen.Hope youre day only gets better,in a good way that is.

bullet77 Posted August 16, 2014 Posted August 16, 2014 Thanks Ben, was having such a lekker ride and then ccrruunncchh, now I'm gonna have to watch those rogue sticks lurking on the trails.
GreatGusto Posted August 16, 2014 Posted August 16, 2014 (edited) Did a Gran Fondo in the Cradle. First time for me >130km and 1600m climbs. And it wasn'nt even that hard! My riding partner had **** luck and his Jamis Jamison carbon seat post snapped at 94km. Did the rest solo. Edit: spelling Edited August 16, 2014 by GreatGusto BenReaper 1

BenReaper Posted August 16, 2014 Posted August 16, 2014 We did a nice 40km ride in and around the Slanghoek valley this morning.some nice single track has been added and I had to take an involantary 'lay down' on one of the switch backs. bullet77 and Uni 2
johanpre44 Posted August 16, 2014 Posted August 16, 2014 Decided to test out my new toy today (Garmin Edge 500) and when it picked up a course automatically (which I loaded last night) I decided to follow it. Was a nice ride, but learned that going over Northcliff from Fairlands on a 1x8 (34 and 11-32) is really not that easy (respect to everyone doing similar climbs without a granny gear).
Uni Posted August 17, 2014 Posted August 17, 2014 Lovely ride yesterday after the rains. Even the fish eagles were vocal and that sound always puts a smile on my face. On the down side - got a tick trying to hitch a ride. BenReaper 1
