stewie911 Posted May 15, 2010 Posted May 15, 2010 Today was my second race of more than 40km. After about 40km I thought what a nice semi flat fast race. Then the sh!t started. Got my famous backpain that left me walking a bit and stretching and suffering and ... So when my speedometer said about 4km left I thought almost done as I went downhill. Then wtf... Hills with more hills. Couldn't ride anymore, so I pushed the bike for probably 12min Finished the race with my computer saying 84.5km in 4:21 Was moerse rof
The expat cyclist Posted May 15, 2010 Posted May 15, 2010 Die Lionman sien my nie weer nie. Net 4 "bloubussies" by die start. NET 4!!! En ek wens batch starts wil 'n pynlike dood sterf!!! Veral by events met die tipe kapasiteit! Mj oor en uit!
stewie911 Posted May 15, 2010 Author Posted May 15, 2010 Ja die toilette was bietjie skandelik. Het my forseer om in bossies te gaan ... Die start en eerste paar kilos was chaos
draadsitter Posted May 15, 2010 Posted May 15, 2010 Why does cyclist always arrive at a race with sh*t on board?
ErikV Posted May 15, 2010 Posted May 15, 2010 Why does cyclist always arrive at a race with sh*t on board? Cause you gotta eat before the race and you can't leave *it* in the car.

Veral by events met die tipe kapasiteit! Mj oor en uit! Wat is fout met batch starts? Die 84km het net een batch gehad

sias Posted May 16, 2010 Posted May 16, 2010 My race went pretty well for the first 10km. Then some guy in front of me osvershot the turn and braked and swerved right in front of me. When all the sh.it and dust had settled my right shoulder was dislocated and my whole right side was full of bruises. The guy did'nt even know I went down. Now, as for MTB'ers being a caring bunch - **** that!! Only one guy from all the 80km stopped and tried to help me get up. Thank you, whoever you were. To the rest - ****you very much! Luckily this happened about 200m from the first KFC waterpoint and those guys were wonderful and supportive till the medic could come and give me some morphine. After the morphine kicked in I wanted to ride the course backwards on one wheel... I'm now bookd off for a week...

'n Vriend van my het ook die Lionman gery, ook geval, en ook sy skouer ontwrig (net links) MAAR die freaky deel is...SY NAAM IS OOK SIAS!!!
Ysterman Posted May 16, 2010 Posted May 16, 2010 Was 'n moerse lekker race! <?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />I had fun all the way, except didn?t know it was 85km ... only planned for 75km Probably the best race so far this year for me, really enjoyed it & it had a bit of everything in it to keep you wanting more. I will be back next year
GTRacing Posted May 16, 2010 Posted May 16, 2010 Did anybody maybe pick up a bike on the way there? mine came of the trailer some where after the onestop.

P.I.T.C. Posted May 16, 2010 Posted May 16, 2010 Race went well, exept for the nice uphill close to the end, @?$%& that was a killer! Not a lot of singletrack though.. Anybody know who did the photos?
Kritzie Posted May 16, 2010 Posted May 16, 2010 Great race, must say after Clarens this was more of a downhill cruise!!!
Squier Posted May 16, 2010 Posted May 16, 2010 Only did the short one but was a lekker race! Will definitely be back next year again!
