oh and another story i like to tell about that bike! my ex-wife covets it. she wants to know how she didn't get it in the divorce settlementLOLfunny thing is, when i left you guys i actually rode past her near the top of the first climb from my side.

Feel free to pop by for a drink anytime.

 

I think I met one of those guys that was crying after we finished he was complaining to me that he had riden from Heidleburg and didn't relize how tough the ride was.

 

I quote" I ride 25 kilos from Heidelburg then I get to that big climb and the bike just goes from side to side I am going to *** in the 94.7" Very funny guy but definatly not the sharpest tool in the shed.

I've just joined up and am a dirt jumper/downhiller/freerider too. I'm from Zimbabwe, but am studying in Cape Town. I also ride a hardtail (singlespeed DMR Trailstar).

 

I've visited a friend who lives in Howick, and it looks like you guys have some awesome riding in that area. I can't wait to come back with my bike.

 

Here it is (I have since upgraded to hydraulic discs - what a difference!):

And these are some of my jumps from back home:

It's great to see other riders doing DH on hardtails. I did the Action Cycling Urban Assault recently, and there weren't very many of us. Still, it was great to be able to beat some full sus guys and do jumps and lines that many of them weren't. So good luck, and enjoy yourself!
