Caveman wins XTERRA Buffelspoort 2012 despite a broken zipper.
Stoked to kick the season off with a win. The Festive Season on the farm is over, so is the twice weekly splash in the dam, but the never ending honeymoon is full steam ahead.
Even though its the start of the season, I’m happy with a solid [...]

XTERRA Worlds 2011. DNF
Disappointed I couldnt do my great form and World title justice at XTERRA Worlds yesterday. Started getting asthma when coming out the swim- couldnt ride close to my race pace and trying to run wasn’t even worth it.
However I had a great season- won ITU Cross Tri Worlds in one [...]

Just a quick post to celebrate the unhacking of  my website- will blog more extensively soon.
Had a lot of fun at XTERRA Knysna and the Oyster Fesitival. Knysna is a stunning place, and after 20 years of endless summer, I saw that this kind of winter I can live with if I really have to- [...]

Santa Cruz, California (just south of San Fancisco) is wacky, its trendy and its also know as “Surf City”. And the place where Specialized test rides bikes and equipment.

I love ocean swims, and even the supposed 53F  water (11C- although it felt warmer) did not put me off.

What a great sporting community here in Waco, Texas! The people are amazing. Waco is a perfect XTERRA venue. The course is very technical yet fun, its right down town the [...]

I have never felt so emotional at a finish line before.
To understand the significance of this win, you have to walk the last 10 XTERRA Worlds years in my shoes:
My 1st win in 2001 was really a life changing experience- Not only did I discover and win this amazing XTERRA thing on a beautiful Hawaiian [...]

Conrad Stoltz XTERRA Whistler, by Dustin Derkach, Revolve Photography
I have always been spellbound by the crazy “BC” trails (British Columbia, Canada) one sees in the mountain biking videos and magazines. So when XTERRA Whistler came along, I jumped on the opportunity to experience this magical place, its trails and its people.

This is a quick post to explain to John Harrington (facebook discussion on 24 August ) about clipping tires.

(There is more, but I couldnt screen shoot the whole thing- was born in the 70s)

These Specialized Captain 2.00 tires  clogged with mud at XTERRA Vermont in 2009 (Read more about the race, rotten foot and tire [...]

Hats off to the XTERRA TV crew and Whit Raymond (commentating)- those guys surely knows how to make one look good.
Thanks for the good times and good memories!

Seriously, they put a bush Zamboni into Forest Hill and tore a swath of trail wide enough to swing a cat. WHILE juggling 3 Caddilacs! To think I used to cut my bars narrower for this course…
I’m all for bringing the sport to the masses, but this trail will bring wives with baby strollers…
Here is [...]

I’m very lucky to have a full quiver of Specialized bikes to chose from!
After watching a few youtube videos on the Waco course, I decided to travel to Waco with my 29er Epic (Aluminium)- it loves rocky, rooty and twisty.  But 30min into pre riding the course on wednesday I had to “call a friend” [...]

I “raced” the Xterra off road triathlon on the weekend. It’s really the grand daddy of off road triathlons in South Africa. It is a series of triathlons held around the country, and it was Cape Town’s / Western Cape’s [...]
