Roof of Africa Guys are Nuts :)
Hey FDB - were you in the mix of nutballs (lol) that ran this course?
I know he's on a Husky, but watching Graham Jarvis ride is amazing. I can't believe he saved the hairball situation around 3:20 into the video, the hole he made it through would caused me to cry. Great riding and great splice of on-board footage - that place looks inhospitable :eek::eek: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wE539JihoPI |
Yep even Jarvis had to take a breather after that!! I suppose he should have known something was up when there were spectators in the middle of nowhere lol
This is what twowheels Steve had to get my suspension to work on in 2012 - slow rock gardens followed by fast stuff with hidden holes Some more clips here http://enduro21.com/index.php/extrem...ica-highlights |
No sheeez. Roof is hectic. Ill never make it.
But we have another series like that called "Mountain Madalas" in the same general area. Ill be doing that one. Im sure Swazi will too? |
:o A young mans game I would love to know the oldest rider to finish and how good did he do ?:cool:
|
Well isn't Graham Jarvis 42 or something? Second place I believe

There were a few other gold finishers in their late forties and gold is seriously tough not just technically but fitness wise. I would think the gold riders are either pro's or don't work during the week! I am thinking about bronze again next year as it really is an awesome ride if you train hard enough FDB when you popping across the border for a swazi GG ride? we have mountains and madalas!! |

You really hear his breathing get heavy after that rocky ledge. Looks brutal.
