Frosty Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 I miss my road bike. Still loooong before I have it again.That's how I felt riding my MTB twice in the last two weeks. Been way too long, but was good to be back on the road bike.
BenReaper Posted June 5, 2016 Posted June 5, 2016 After more than a week off the bike, except for the trainer, I finally got out of the house on the mtb. We were blessed with a beautifull warm sunny day in the Breederiver Valley. Did alot of climbing and took most off my pics from the top of the hills. Ended up with 31km's and 900m of climbing. Must admit it was very taxing on the body. Sent from my S40 using Tapatalk the nerd, Bloukrans, Blokman and 11 others 14

DJR Posted June 6, 2016 Posted June 6, 2016 No bloody where! I have been shut indoors in a dark auditorium listening to lectures for 3 days solid, with aircon blasting freezing dry air and imported sputtering and coughing from all over the world going on all around me.......which reminded me of how that exact scenario gave me the flu that nearly killed me last year at To Hell & Back! I get miserable when I haven't seen the sun in 3 days and I start to feel like a mole!! Might as well live in London! BDF, Pikey and Lexx 3

Like you say just in uk for a year and see how bad your hankering for the sun becomes ???? Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1

Pikey Posted June 6, 2016 Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) It is a few hundred meters into Samuel ....damn really...that's such a cool new section to add to the green route oh and a proper lung buster. And the new fire station is becoming well bed in. On Saturday I even took the 2 no new part of the fire station to end up in the middle of the veld when the track ran out ????.

Maniax Posted June 6, 2016 Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) Note to self, always check distance before you set out if you are unsure. Ended up doing 83km when I thought it would only be 65 odd. Was a great ride out though. Devonvale - Hells - Elsenburg. Top of Devonvale Top of Hellshoogte Edited June 6, 2016 by Maniax Escapee.., BenReaper, Lexx and 4 others 7

[emoji15]Am surprised I didn't see Sheldon & you guys. Will be a really cool testing loop when that section is finished (if you add in Samuel & yafta) Stretched@Birth 1
Bernard Horn Posted June 6, 2016 Posted June 6, 2016 My favourite place .Did not pass anybody and wish to reach 20kmh,but that is a long way off BenReaper 1
KarlvN Posted June 6, 2016 Posted June 6, 2016 To hospital...(07/05/16)I suspect my bike won't be taking me anywhere soon!
