@PicknPay so much for your “click and collect” turns out our order was “stolen” from in front of the counter. Lots of “sorry for the inconvenience” and “we’ll deliver”. Still waiting for my supper! @michellevschalk

The 2021 @EcoBoundEvents Trans Baviaans finally happened, and The Prancing Thunder Pixies were there for another misdaventure. Expectations were high for us to write another chapter in the how-not-to-ride Baviaans story. Read about it here

@velotales @The36ONE I won’t lie, there were a couple of squeaky bum moments out there in the dark in the middle of f**k knows where !
English
Five years ago today @captaincraigSA and I rode our second @The36ONE. Here is a photo of @captaincraigSA checking his lights just before the start. It was the last time they worked and he rode the whole race without lights, following me. I still don't know how he did it. 💪👏🥇
English
@velotales All that mattered was that the briquettes were more comfortable than my saddle, it was a very long ~15km from there to the end 😣
English
I'm halfway through #BigDayIn2020 and I'm beginning to go into that "I'm so tired I don't care if these briquettes are uncomfortable, I'm sitting" phase that @captaincraigSA went deep into at #BigDayOut2016
English
I'm two hours into the #BigDayIn2020 Tour d Garage & I don't hate the @wattbike yet. Looking at photos from when it all began - #BigDayOut2014 with @captaincraigSA

@CapeEpic @liezelv @Cape_Leopard @bikehubber @mountainbike_SA @CapeClassic380 Thanks for the references guys 👍🏻, clearly no shortage of good okes out there on bicycles
English
@liezelv @Cape_Leopard @bikehubber @mountainbike_SA @CapeClassic380 Great call @captaincraigSA is also a fantastic oke, definitely someone we'd endorse spending 8 days on a bike with.

URGENT APPEAL to MTB community!

@larrymontana @TableMountainNP @SANParks @VanHaywood Nothing less than the dismissal of all of the rangers involved

Such a cool photo of @captaincraigSA and I - thanks @JacqMaraisPhoto. Together, we've got 27 @EcoBoundEvents #Transbaviaans finishes. 😁

The road surface can be a rough as the rugged rock you ride through or past. #transbaviaans2019 Dane Walsh (far) completed his sixteenth Trans Baviaans image @JacqMaraisPhoto bit.ly/2KBGwiy

@SirK_CT @velotales @EcoBoundEvents @BMCfan It’s not the climbs you need to worry about it’s @velotales #whitelinefever at around 190km that will give you whiplash!
English
@velotales @EcoBoundEvents @captaincraigSA If you promise to take it easy up the climbs, you could always ride with @BMCfan and I... 😉
English
Thanks @EcoBoundEvents - hopefully my partner @captaincraigSA is paying close attention to this #TransTip. I'm waiting for the "How not to vomit up MAC and/or NeverEnder" #Transtip 😂

Lights are quite important when tackling the #TransBaviaans2019, so choose wisely! Make sure you opt for something bright that has a long battery life. We recommend @ExtremeLights Baviaans Bicycle Light, this is their brightest light yet, shinning at 3600 lumens!! 🚲 💡 🌌

@velotales @WaldoZevenster @TeamPureSavage @The36ONE @36ONE @DrylandZA @firstascentSA @BiogenSA @GiantRSA Ahem, “hate and resentment” WTF I’d like to point out that @velotales is the one that drags me (literally and figuratively) into these races #lovehaterelationship
English
@WaldoZevenster @TeamPureSavage @The36ONE @36ONE @DrylandZA @firstascentSA @BiogenSA @GiantRSA @captaincraigSA While we suffered the tiniest touch of FOMO on race day, being able to look at my bike (and partner - @captaincraigSA ) without hate and resentment was a wonderful thing 😂
English
New date. New checkpoint. New elements added to the route.
So many reasons to take on #TheUltimateRace in 2020...
Make sure you don't miss 1 Aug. when entries open!

@rideyourcity @WOOLWORTHS_SA I know someone who strongly agrees with you and wouldn’t #ever shop there out of principle #accountability

@BicycleMayorCT @rideyourcity @BradyLeanne @TeamPureSavage @CTCycleLanes Give me a Taxi over a soccer mom in her SUV (probably on her phone) any day !
English
@captaincraigSA @rideyourcity @BradyLeanne @TeamPureSavage @CTCycleLanes Couldn’t agree with you more! They’re the only motorists that are actively surveying the streets for passengers so they tend to see cyclists and, in my experience, often give me right of way

@MikeB_SA @captaincraigSA @The36ONE @WaldoZevenster @aidencholes @oakpics You've got to retire in order to make a comeback - hey @captaincraigSA.
We used to sneak into registration with about 15 minutes to spare to avoid those nerves! Also probably explains why we once missed the box truck 🤦♂️
English
Well done @captaincraigSA 👊- we've successfully broken the @The36ONE spell!. The bit I am going to miss most - that feeling of absolute relief when we cross the finish line that the pain & suffering are all over. To all those riding - good luck (and enjoy the ostrich sosaties!)
English
@MikeB_SA @velotales @The36ONE @WaldoZevenster @aidencholes @oakpics Have a good one Mike, glad I’m not there for you to give me rule 5 lessons again
English
@velotales @captaincraigSA @The36ONE @WaldoZevenster @aidencholes @oakpics It's a shame you guys aren't here, guess its time for a change in guard! Nerves are building here at registration!
