Thug Posted March 2, 2009 Share A really awesome event. That floating bridge on the lagoon on Day 3 claimed a number of victims !! Note for future reference, DO NOT re-use an old SRAM masterlink on a new chain !! I lost about 10 minutes on day 1 fixing my chain that broke twice where the masterlink dis-engaged itself !!.

Maniac Posted March 2, 2009 Share My first Sani. Fantastic event and brilliant organisation. However, a bit bitter sweet for me. Day 1 had a bad fall at speed on the opening district road. After dusting myself off and nursing my shoulder a bit I eventually managed to continue with the remaining 80kms, albeit a bit slowly and painfully. Day 2 could not start as I was too sore. Day 3 was awesome and I had a good solid ride. Anyway went to doctor today and had xrays, shoulder is fractured in 4 places with one being a dislocated fracture. Oh well going in for an operation on Wednesday, a plate, a hook and a few screws with 6 to 8 weeks before I can get on a bike again - bummer!

Thug Posted March 2, 2009 Share Sorry to hear that Maniac, hope you recover soon. Roux 1 broke his collar bone and cracked a couple of ribs 34k's into Day 1 which put him out for the rest of the race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gert Janse v Rensburg Posted March 2, 2009 Share Sorry to hear that Maniac' date=' hope you recover soon. Roux 1 broke his collar bone and cracked a couple of ribs 34k's into Day 1 which put him out for the rest of the race.[/quote'] roux is pretty hardcore though..... he did become a good photoghrapher after that....... Sani this year was the best ever..... only got stuck on singletrack once...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
