Just to get use to the dh bike again sho! Wow this pedal bob system in the boxxer is amazing you don't wollow in your travel on the sprints at all!
Capricorn Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Hey guys. heard from the good folk at Action cycling there will be a ride before you buy event at tokai. No DH awesomeness, just the tame stuff. Should be good though. 09h00- 1600,but not sure if he said Sat or Sun. Hopefully someone else can confirm

Capricorn Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Yup. it's on the 24th. I would go if they were gonna let me try out a Makulu.holy cow.. The Duane is alive. what's happening guvnor. havent seen ya around these here parts in ages. Dont suppose you raced last weekend at Paarl?
mad bout mtb Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Hi does anybody here know if you could fit a 05-06 giant reign with a 1.5" steerer tube?
Capricorn Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 checked on Giant's site: tab says fullspecs, but it dont give full specs. Bit hard finding it on google. then again only did a quick search. Hopefully someone else on teh forumz can assist. I think Donovan has a Reign, or was it the Reign X. That looked like a 1.5" steerer, but can't be sure.
louis0852 Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Howzit guys, I am officially finished with holiday work. So can hub again, whats been happening on the thread
mad bout mtb Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Thanks CapWell here's what i'm riding now I know it's not a downhill bike but I love it
giepie Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 I'm coming over for the Sani2C and was thinking of doing a skills course for a day or two while I'm in SA. Any recommendations? Need to be able to rent a trail or downhill bike at the same time as I don't want to snap my race bike.
Capricorn Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Howzit guys' date=' I am officially finished with holiday work. So can hub again, whats been happening on the thread[/quote']welcome back old guy what were u doing that kept you so busy? Nothing much happenign except hte usual. Something unusual was the impromptu race Panik, Mitch21 and jrussel entered. Venue was Paarl and it was absolutely smoking hot on the day. I couldn't make as I had taken ill. All 3 of them reported the event absolutely awesome. So hopefully our next group ride will be there.?
louis0852 Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Doing construction and bvuilding work for my dad. Just got to Pretoria this afternoon, needed soap so took my DH rig and raced down to the shop to buy soap, any excuse nowadays to rid my new parts. Awesome how did they do, when does the DH season start down there?
Capricorn Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 ROFL Check this guy railing this berm.. LOLhttp://nsrmtb.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/kelvin-purchase.jpg
Capricorn Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 building and construction? niiiice. should have decently developed upper body strength then. good for DH
louis0852 Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Haha I gym for that. When the season start there cap?
Capricorn Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 dude: i must be honest, i dont think we have a proper DH series that, the start of which would define the start of a season. It's properly sad. Whenz it starting your side?
louis0852 Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 7 Feb, is the first provincial up here. Dont Know about the MTN series though
