Your riding style changes as you get older and wiser.
I used to be like a " malmeit met n mop" untill I almost lost my left hand in a stupid self inflicted accident.... a year of rehab and lots of k@k en h@re. Murphy's law of averages.
Also have a Bat X on my 950, lekker tyre with lots of grip off road and could get good mileage, high speeds on tar will kill it like any tyre with that amount of knobblies. For that money its a bargain. I would buy one again.
Wonder waar Frohan nou is ? In 1997 het hy die To Hell and Back mtb race gewen (2 dae vanaf De Hoek tot in die Hel en terug )
Ons het altwee dae die afstand 60 km's in onder 3 ure gejaag, hy is n tawwe ou.
Meeste van julle sal sukkel om dit te meerkat met julle GS's ........
Grappie!!!
