Duane_Bosch Posted November 21, 2016 Posted November 21, 2016 Just remember that without what us normal peeps would consider dangerous/stupid there'd be very little progression in any extreme sport.I know. What I'm talking about is the hips to nowhere and quads that you carry way too much speed into. That sort of stuff. Retard building. It's not progressive. It's dumb. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1

NicoBoshoff Posted November 21, 2016 Posted November 21, 2016 Consider it done. Myself and Luke had machetes, just in case we needed to do just that in some places. Going there this weekend again, and will make sure to take it down on my first run. Also ask the guys I'm with to keep an eye out for anything in the way that ISN'T a feature. Shot! Maybe I'll catch you guys on the hill. P.s. wrt that drop - remember #bonesmendpresssend Eddy Gordo 1

Not easy shuttling 16 riders with a single bakkie and a trailer. Needs to be a constant stream, and the car was needed to ferry people as well. Damn this looks like it was a rip!! Nice!!! Hope to get to ride in the Cape next year... CdT85 and Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 2

Hairy Posted November 21, 2016 Posted November 21, 2016 Safe enough...but bike's are meant to get scratched occasionally dude...Depends on how well you protect it.Bike I am ok with .... but stanchions = too much ZAR to replace.

Where in the vids is the drop?Teh one that Karl etc pre-jump? At 2m40 in the following vid. The one I'm still working up to hitting properly is at 20s Edited November 21, 2016 by Myles Mayhew Uni 1
Thermophage Posted November 21, 2016 Posted November 21, 2016 Teh one that Karl etc pre-jump? At 2m40 in the following vid. Ah...you okes need to go faster for that drop n the table man...pedal pedal pedal Gonna have to whip Taahir into shape Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted November 21, 2016 Posted November 21, 2016 Ah...you okes need to go faster for that drop n the table man...pedal pedal pedal Gonna have to whip Taahir into shapeI know. I'm about a metre short, at the moment. Also getting comfortable with being in the air again. Bloody ribs hurt me for longer than I care for, from a mental perspective. popcorn_skollie and Thermophage 2
nox1111 Posted November 21, 2016 Posted November 21, 2016 Teh one that Karl etc pre-jump? At 2m40 in the following vid. The one I'm still working up to hitting properly is at 20s aha. I see. More challenging for me is gracefully clearing that first table as you turn away from the fence almost at the top still. Dodgily clearing it straight is one thing, any style whatsoever just eludes me. I have never pre jumped the little drop before the table (2min40), I actually push down into the landing, and have more than enough speed to clear the table after that. Interesting how riding styles are vastly different, and also line choices. Time to strap my Gopro on for a ride soon. Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1
BenReaper Posted November 22, 2016 Posted November 22, 2016 Well I'm truly jealous of the great Sunday Funday everybody else had.... On account of family obligations I could only manage to go riding at 13:30 on Sunday afternoon, wanted to get some distance in the legs, and pointed my bike towards Stettyn Dam. By this time it was extremely hot and windy and I suffered tremendously, first in the wind on the flats and then in the heat on the climbs towards the dam. Ran out of water, but luckely there are a few mountain streams coming down with crystal clear cool water that I could fill my bottels with. Stopped at the foot of the dam wall for the first time to check out this spray of water. This is always flowing, what for I have no idea. Seriously contemplated a quick cool down shower. Made my way up the last climb to the dam wall, many people only ride to the foot of the dam wall and then turn around, I feel you cant say you've been to the dam unless you've actually seen this view. #sufferfestsunday nonky, henningvr, leeubok and 16 others 19
