Are you going to borrow a bike for DH event in Dec ( 10&11, not 6th)?
Sounds like you enjoy your bike in every possible way! Wish I could manual and do jumps.
Your photos are spectacular. Where are you shooting Sat?
Yes, I'm fit. In total I did 13 MTB events this year ... distances from 80km to 35km. Most recent one was the Buffet Olive 45km. But I feel good about Slanghoek's 35km where I got 3rd place .. whoo hhoo .. I really pushed hard in that race .. but wouldn't happen again. The following day I did the Apple Blosssom (Oak valley) 42km, but 10km to the finish I gave up ;( should have finished. I'm doing my 1st 3-day stage race in Dec.
Yes, a bunch of us usually ride in Eden every Friday afternoon at 17:00 ... but I've missed the last 3 Fridays.
And yes, I'm actually planning on going for a short ride in Jonkershoek on Sunday (I need to train for that 3-day stage race). But I actually need lots of practice on single track!! Switch back is an issue for me.

I still need to find that green bike! But was your bike not stolen earlier this year? So you got a new/second hand one?
You also going to George this weekend for DH event there?
I'm doing 40km MTB ride Saturday .. Tygervalley MTB club fun ride ... lots of single track, including Contermanskloof trails.

Ha ha .. I have not idea what you look like, and in the pic of the ramp into lake, it's you back showing ...so would not even have had an idea it was you. Next time come and introduce yourself to me. Thank you for the coffee invite, but it will be a bit difficult in the week, I work in Bellville, so driving to CL is a bit out of my way, although I'm suppose to go there often for studies. But look out for me 6/7 Dec ... if the weather permits, I'll most probably be in shorts again.
