  1. Hi Kaka I can only confirm what GTForce said. Unfortunately I can not afford to ride with Peptopro all the time. I buy the sachets of 10 in a box which I can then use per occasion - say when I do a new long route etc etc.
  2. PeptoPro®: What is it? PeptoPro® is unique in being a pre-digested milk protein, derived from casein, which is neutral in taste. The secret lies in a patent-protected enzyme that reduces the typical bitter taste at the same time as generating tiny protein fragments (so-called peptides) that are rapidly absorbed into the bloodstream and so fuel the muscles. PeptoPro® is a groundbreaking all-natural product developed by DSM scientists. It is widely known that amino acids, the building blocks of proteins, are crucial for muscle function. But consuming intact proteins, means these amino acids first need to be liberated by gastro-intestinal digestion and this costs precious time and energy. Intact proteins can lead to discomfort during physical activity. Proteins can be pre-digested to deliver bioavailable amino acids, but this generally produces a bitter taste. PeptoPro® can be provided in a variety of pleasant tasting powders, drinks, gels or energy bars. From the peptopro website - but they lie about the "neutral in taste"
  3. Try and keep it as cold as possible. I freeze my second bottle on "races". The colder the better the taste
  4. In my defence your honour, no one told me it was wrong. Rode like that for two almost two years until I sold my first bike. Here on the hub as a matter of fact.
  5. Yes that was the question. Thank You
  6. OK. Dit mag dalk 'n dom vraag wees, maar verstaan ek dit reg? Hoe fikser mens raak, hoe hoer kan jou HR gaan, maar jou gemiddelde HR sal dan weer daal. Met ander woorde: Gestel ek ry dieselfde roete. Eers onfiks en dan gestel later fiks of dan fikser. Sal ek in die tweede geval myself harder kan druk op die bulte - 'n hoer HR , maar die gemiddelde HR sal laer wees as toe ek onfiks was? Maak dit sin?
  7. I use external MIC bought at Incredible Connection. I believe background noises does make a difference. When holding the watch, I actually cap my hand in order to cut out any background noises and also turn down the volume on ie TV, Video's and Dogs barking. Never have a problem- Only one I had was the one IdeJongh explained in 2 ( Very clever!!)
  8. First of all I don't think Game stores will allow it and secondly I think it is unethical. But that is just me

    Hot feet

    At this stage the straps is so lose that it feels as if the shoe is slipping out of my feet. I also tried to move the cleat position, but as I said at this stage there is no problem when I ride in cooler weather

    Hot feet

    Here is a odd question: Due to a restricted cashflow I bought myself cleats at on of the big Chain Stores. It works fine but I find that in hot weather my toes burn like it is on hot coals. This does not happen when the weather is colder ? then my feet is fine and I have no problems at all. I am thinking of drilling 2 or 3 holes in the front of the shoe in the hope that I will get more ventilation and by doing this, solve the hot toe problem. Any comments? Mads2010-03-06 05:21:57

  15. Thank You to all. So now it is me my bike and I for 2 months!
  16. Thank You
  17. What I mean is that when training I dont take any supplements as the Energade is so diluted. Should I for instance put Pepto Pro in my cooldrink when I train as well? Or do I leave that for races only? I am actually aiming for 3.30 but its a secret.
  18. Someone???
  19. I am still in my training shoes and have the following question to those that know: On a "race" like ie the Burger I would use USN Cyto Max HP with Pepto Pro in my bottles and some Gu's or other energy gels. For food I take boiled baby potatoes ( because it eat easy) When I train I normally take Energade MAX but I dilute it at aprox 1:10. Actually it is only to give the water some sort of a taste. Now my question is the following: Am I supposed to train with all these supll I use when I race? I am trying to do 2 x 1.5 hours a week and a long run of 2-4 hours on weekends. I am not a pro - not by far - but aiming to beat the 4 hour mark in the Argus.
