BASHERS SHINE AT SA CHAMPS
South Coast Fever February 12, 2010
With a large group of Bundu Bashers making the trek up to Johannesburg last week for the SA Cross Country Champs we were not left disapointed. Podium finishes went to Hayley Smith (1st), Candice Neethling (1st), Burry Stander (1st), James Reid (1st), Evan van der Spuy (3rd) and Garry Neethling (3rd) as well as some great finishing results from Dieter Blom, Justin Porteous and Daryn Purtell.
As for those who braved the extreme heat conditions at the Golovane this last weekend and finished, hats off to you. With temperatures reaching 44 degrees C it was no easy feat. One positive to take home from this experience is that if you can ride and finish in those conditions, Sani2c will be a pleasure.
There will be no ride this Thursday. Saturday morning's ride from Dura Cycles is at 6.30am with four groups heading out. Leaders to Beginners: Reg Mpofana; Intermediate: Karen Preston; Medium: Bernardt; Fast: Jono. Keep an eye on thse leader names as your name might just appear in the future.
Good luck to everyone heading up to do the Classic this Saturday. Word is that the course is mind blowing so be prepared for awesomeness. Finally, remember to RSVP to Mike Bennison if you will be coming to the Bundu Bashers AGM and contact Jono if you have any prizes that you may want to sponsor.

BASHERS BRACE FOR SA XC CHAMPS
South Coast Fever February 5, 2010
Well done to Burry Stander and James Reid for their podium finishes over the weekend.
SA XC Champs is lining up this weekend with a big group of Bundu Bashers making their way up to Johannesburg to race for the title. Good luck to Haley and Nicky Smith, Darryn Purtel, Evan van der Spuy, Brandon Venter, Josh Kuhn, Dieter Blom, James Reid, Candy and Gary Neethling and Charles and Burry Stander. We are all rooting for you champions.
Last Saturday saw 24 Bundu riders take to the Paddock Loop. With a steady pace up to Lake Eland, it was evident that the chaps were eager to test their legs on the return trip. After burning out the great breakfast we had at Lake Eland going up Dustbin Pass the racing was on for the fast group. We have another big loop planned for the next weekend so keep an eye out for details.
This Thursday we will be meeting at Dura Cycles at 4.15pm for an hour burn session. Saturday morning's ride leaves Dura Cycles at 6.30am. There will be four groups this week so all are welcome.
