Vetseun Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Sjo luckily the States (Freestate) and Karoo is flat for the start and basically, what 3/4 of the way? Are you going to swop it for a smaller ring if necessary later on in the race?Sent from my VTR-L09 using TapatalkJa I might swop it at the end. As you said it is flat here. Mike Woolnough klapped it all the way on a 36t ring last year. But, that is Mike Woolnough endurance machine not Vetseun from Bloem eating machine. BSG, Lurch the stalker, SwissVan and 3 others 6
fanievb Posted October 8, 2017 Posted October 8, 2017 Havent weighed it yet Gummi.A mate is also doing Munga.We did a 100km a week ago. Fully laden his bike is about 25kg (I guess) He is moer fast on the down hills.After the ride he said he needs to rethink his packing strategy.That big ball bag sways quite a lot and screws with the weight distribution of the bike. I've got a 150km planned for the weekend of the 21st (2500m ascent) so we can test the new packing strategy. Sterkte vorentoe Vettes! gummibear and BSG 2

deanbean Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 Club weekend in the wild coast, lots of beers were drunk and major *** spoken. Great fun.Moonrise over the Seagulls Hotel pub at Qolorha mouth Some disinterested locals Upper reaches of the Kei river estuary Lunch and beers at the Gxara Falls, it was the first time I've been here, despite walking and riding up the Wild coast for many many years, and it's only a few km from the Kei River And of course it all ends at the Shebeen Sunday ride I was lazy, and only took one pic,overlooking the Kobonqaba river.
