glad the practice is 12 on sat. gives me some time to get there and still run around beforehand. Just hope paarl doesnt move to the center of the sun though. It's often just so damn hot there smiley6.gif

 

Prac should end by about 17h00 i reckon. I will definitely need the saddle time smiley2.gif

It's R200 for the whole event: prac + race + shuttle runs.

At urban assault, it was just two largeass trucks with cattle at the back holding onto their bikes. Just about every rider takes some care not to hook pedals and sh*t onto another guys bike. But if the truck lurches around, sh*t happens. oh and I have yet to see some dude sporting fork protection during shuttle runs. But you can be the first.. the fearless pioneer...smiley17.gif

so just a little update for all those who care lol.. im very depressed have not been riding for like 3 months because of building my new bike.. then the frame arrived late to my dad so he couldnt bring it over from miami with him... so now he will only ship it on like monday i guess... new wheels are bought so just saving for a fork now and then i will be ready.. it sucks man i wanna ride so bad :(
