    Does anyone have a good adv loop in the Potch (Vaal river) area

    Here's a gpx file for the Vredefort area, some stunning riding around there. Worth stopping at the Venterskroon Inn for a burger and Skandinavia Drift for something to drink.

    have you tried using a MX toolbag, it should be able to be shortened for a snug fit around the existing bag?

    WINTER GLOVE REVIEW

    What winter gloves to use always tends to get a good debate going :) I'm based up north, where our winters are dry and generally by 9am things are warming up already - I've tried a lot of different gloves and finally last year settled on the Alpinestars Windstopper gloves, they do a great job...

    "Expanding" a Tail Bag.....Show Yours

    Simplifying is always a good thing :) and keeping the weight low.

    Forest route near Sabie or Graskop - picnic for my mother's bucket list

    You go through a boom, pay a small entry fee (I think it was R25 per person) and fill in the visitors register, we had no problems. Then halfway up the turn to the right to go the waterfall and up at the top there's no restrictions to access other than the old base being locked up. We were there...

    congrats, you guys are going to love that kit. I bought the Leatt 7.5 Flowtour suit a few months back and it's top notch gear, super comfortable and offers plenty of protection - that's adjustable to limit movement in the event of an off.
