  1. Now all they have to do is ditch the Shimano and go Campagnolo ...and then it would be perfect. ...☺
  2. I think for the cobbles. .manufacturers have bikes with relaxed geometry. ..same like the Spez Roubaix...this they then market to old toppies like me ...????????????
  3. Nice and easy ride....no crashes that I know of..oh and of course my 1st sub 3..????
  4. But the legs will be fresher and peeps have trained for 109kms. ..it will be hard...and easier. ..????????????
  5. Always wondered about Llandudno as well...them being cut off during a normal Argus ...for about 8 hours or so..must be frustrating. ...
  6. Tokara, Thelema, Rust en Vrede, La Motte to name a few....out in Stellenbosch and Franschoek. ...oh and Waterford...Wine and Chocolate pairing....and Fairview in Paarl....ask for the Masters Tasting....????
  7. Cool....I'm a happy chappy..and and they better not double that entry fee...????????
  8. And they will only use one location out of the options available....and the city will be onboard. ..no need to double the cost..????
  9. Why 800...the planning and permissions etc are not gonna double the cost....that probably 50 per entry at most...that's 1.75mil just there..and the city can come aboard. ...unless PPA want to be generous and part with some cash to prevent this fiasco from happening again...☺
  10. I don't see the problem. ..at 430 x 35000...shouldn't be a problem....the city can come aboard as well ...hell the give the minstrels a couple of mill each year ...???????????? the alternative can be advertised as well and residents informed....and nd if all goes well ..it's the traditional route ..if not ..it's the alternative....really don't see the problem...☺
  11. You see that is the problem there.....it should not have been three days but 365...the Monday after the Argus...when they have their post mortem....they should start planning ...for ALL contingencies. ..the thought of have an alternative route in another area was never considered. ..for an event of this size...that is a f*ck up....but hey ...let's hope they have their ducks in a row come next year....☺
  12. More importantly....where is the Vigin Angels gonna be....they usually at the top of Suikerbossie. ...maybe Hospital bend on the way back....I like the angels.....????????????????????
  13. So has anybody been down to the expo yet.....no complaints. ..is it going smoothly and you were in and out in under 5 mins...????????????
  14. Ai.....well the lesson learnt is not to take things for granted.....and that as soon as this Argus is over ...the organizers have proper contingency routes and plans in place....even if we have to move it to other towns etc.....they start on Monday engaging who ever they need to engage and get the ball rolling. ..I'm kinda dissapointed that there was no such thinking back then....???? But come Sunday...I'll have a blast...it's gonna be cool coming into town on the NMB...????????????
  15. This should be easier for the guy doing it on the BMX....most likely a sub 3..????
  16. So no gels...one water bottle...maybe one tube....gonna be fun....☺
  17. I think I'll just continue riding till Hout Bay after finishing and then back to Town ..I mean what's the Argus without Suikerbossie.....????????????
  18. Do we still have seven hours....????????????
  19. Seeing the Good Hope Center will be a Movie Studio soon....will the Expo move to CTICC....
  20. Going back via the M3....with a pumping South Easter.....mmmmmmm. ..should be fun..????
