amoryns Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 have you guys seen the new routes for Sabie.....ons gaan kaaaaaaak!
NotSoBigBen Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 Yip AmorynS - it looks tough!!!!!!! You not going to the pre-ride?
dirtrider Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 En ek het "inside information " dat modderskerms uitverkoop sal wees teen einde November
NotSoBigBen Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 Gonna have to start with new brake pads and take spares again!
amoryns Posted October 4, 2007 Author Posted October 4, 2007 BB wil kyk of ons die pre ride kan gaan doen...eks bietjie skikerig vir stage 2
mrmed Posted October 4, 2007 Posted October 4, 2007 82km with 1800m climbing is very similar to the Mazda marathons, Giants Castle, etc. I'm sure we'll survive, because in Sabie, what goes up must come down!
NotSoBigBen Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 mrmed, you right except ................................. you will have done 78k's the day before with also 1800m of cllimbing and then the yet to be shown days 3 and 4 to go!On the other hand yip all roads out of Sabie lead up luckily so you normally have much more down coming back (sometimes you may however not think so!)
_BBi Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 I envy all you that has entered, it is going to be fun. Unfortunatly me not going this year, next year again.

I've seen some Epic profiles and there's 3000m+ of climbing on day 2 (brokeback mountain!) with 146km+ to come the next day. We'll see you at the pre-ride.
Thug Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 I'm still considering whether to do the pre-ride or not. On the one hand, I like to know what I've let myself in for, on the other, I'd don't want to spoil the surprise. Decisions......decisions.......decisions
Trackz Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 don't be sentimental about it ... saw Epic profiles for the first 4 days 2008 ... if u doing Epic you gonna need every minute of climbing training you can get
