Pikey Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 So often we get up look out the window and decide it's not a good day for a ride, weather looks dodgy for example ... But go out and in almost all cases it turns out an absolute cracker ride!Sent from my LG-D958 using TapatalkI think you've got me nsbb...unless that's not thaba . But am almost certain it is ? Twin Towers ?
NotSoBigBen Posted September 28, 2017 Posted September 28, 2017 I think you've got me nsbb...unless that's not thaba . But am almost certain it is ? Twin Towers ?You are quite correct, on those flat rocks near the end of Twin Towers ... you know just before that last piece that will rip what's left of your tender legs off [emoji20] Sent from my HUAWEI VNS-L31 using Tapatalk Pikey 1

Geeez I dread that last piece going up the old downhill track . I think my arms generally hurt as much as my legs. What doesn't kill you right .....???? Calculus Bikes 1

Hou die rubber op die grond!
dewaldsss Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 @BSG I enjoy the fork, always smooth because the seals/stanchions are always lubed.Won't say there is a major difference to a normal fork, but it looks killer.I can see that for XC racing it might be a bit tricky as when changing the wheel the stanchions can move and rotate making it a bit more time consuming getting the thru-axle through and tightened. but other than that is super plush and smooth BSG 1
L.T.G Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 What kind of sorcery IS this???How can this place, when it's already SO awesome,.... get BETTER??!!?? Brilliant ride at FUN Gaalens this morning slipped a bit with this pano, but decided to post anyway Spokey, BSG, Gnarly and 3 others 6
DJR Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 (edited) Me-myself-I ..... Atlantic route all along the 12 Apostles (with the big guns), through the Waterfront (new MOCAA museum in the old grain silos), via Woodstock to Obs "Open Streets" initiative and back home (people playing soccer, walking their dogs,riding bikes, skateboards, rollerblades, wheelchairs, music pounding, all in the middle of the road) Edited October 1, 2017 by DJR Duane_Bosch, Calculus Bikes, Bloukrans and 10 others 13
ChrisF Posted October 1, 2017 Posted October 1, 2017 And so my trip to the Northern Cape came to a close ..... This is where we stayed while I worked next to the Orange River - Job done, we headed to Augrabies for one day, and a short ride ... Pleasantly surprised to see Augrabies welcomes cyclists ! Time to head out on a trail ... Crossed the first water crossing . The second water crossing was much longer, and no bridge .... we know the rest of this trail as we have done it previously with our 4x4 - NICE !! But I was not in the mood for cycling with wet shoes ... maybe next time time to head back to Calvinia, and another morning ride ... interesting ride straight into the rising sun !! and then it was time to head home ....
