There is an entirely different world going on at the same time in South Africa as they are just entering the prime of their Mountain Biking season. Dewet Marais from Squirt (my boss when I listen to him) is racing in a monumental event, the Barberton Mountain Bike Challenge this weekend which includes a 3,300 ft. climb in 8 miles of riding in scorching hot temperatures. Look for the X-Factor (Roan Exelby) to be there as well and contend for a top 5 spot in the men's elite field.
The X-Factor racing solo at 24 Hour of Moab this year with his eyes looking like piss holes in the snow in the wee hours of the morning. Roan finished third and on the same lap as Tinker Juarez
