Ai jinne 'Dale... Each time you post in this thread I end up questioning life choices that have me behind a desk.

Seems like a nice day out for you

An early morning up the Hemel & Aarde valley...

And I finally plucked up the courage to see where the Black trail that heads up left just before the Volmoed dam went... phew, proper climb that but worth the views and to ride through pristine fynbos!

I think the climb is called Kleinbergie. It’s absolutely stunning. Probably one of the best parts of the red loop.

Got a strange look from some riders today ...

"Why those fat tyres on THAT bike?"

"Because I can"

But then again it's just what I do 😜

Another one of those deep blue sky Highveld days, fitting for when I'm feeling 'onward and upward' 🫣😁

Grateful for a body that works. Grateful for the means to roll the contours of my beautiful country.

The bottom of Iron Monkey 5. And no, I didn't go. This was taken as I ascended up the road on the side of Monkey 4. I was poked on the day by then. 

The climb up Irish was insane on the day. It got even stranger when I met a very friendly chap on his way up Irish for his first visit to Jonkers. As we chatted I noticed he had a strange accent. I asked him where he calls home and he said Ireland. 

So I attempted Iron Monkey 5 for the first time today. Spicy. Very spicy indeed. Good thing I like spice.

No pics were taken. I was too busy surviving.

Side note: upon returning to the parking lot a couple baboons were busy bending and breaking wiper blades on some parked cars. Fortunately my bakkie escaped their attention.

I realized that I won't find "The One" until I scrape together the cash and lus to build a proper monstercross bike. Your incessant posting of your fine examples makes me properly jealous.
