Where has your bike taken you today?

[Captain Fastbastard Mayhem]

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...

If Luke had had STRAVA and done a full run without going back up to play on stuff - him without a doubt. Richard would probably have given him a run for his money in places, though. But joh, that kid (Luke) can ride. 

 

EDIT: And yeah - paarl is a weekend only thing, I'm afraid. Work in century city and live in wynberg...

Here's my Saturday morning; quick run around G-spot. No idea how to make better quality gifs, and very little style on this dead sailor over that bumpjump. At least nosed into the landing - if that counts for anything.

Awesome.

 

He needs a better rear tyre than an Ardent. Carried on exploding on him!

There's room for all wheel sizes on shuttle day. Two 29ers make their mark.

I love shots of travel being used. Who says we don't need long travel bikes in SA?

Your's truly.

The thing I love most about this little bridge is the right hander that saves you shortly after.

It's true...

 

I think he stopped 3 times to fix it, IIRC.

I warned him too. Everyone knows 29ers get flats all the time.

And they break

 

But yeah, need a far stronger tyre than an Ardent 2.25 if you're gonna be riding that sorta stuff.

SO much potential for kickass trails up there...

LOL. No idea, actually. As a comparison, you could look at Mada3400's (Adam vd Ploeg)
