i agree with you Novice.
I have a list of over 15 XT's just in Pretoria. The problem is they don;t spend enough time on the forum to enjoy it like we do. Communication between the owners is also down to the minimum, maybe they dont like the competition (not that there is any between us). I can send you all their names and numbers, i have spreadsheet. Riders is welcome to bring their wifes with on most of the rides that we did in the past, but looks like it is only Labrat's wife that can handle the bunch of men.

If you are thinking of Rhino Park ride, prepare yourself to remove those mirrors and some hard riding. The circle route we did last year was very technical and made for 250 or 400class bike, it is also not very long ride, unless you know the owners of the farm next door...but enjoy, i will see if i can join you.
