Swim cancelled? thank goodness I wasnt' there. Wasn't in a mood for suffering, so I wetnt riding with the club. And where did the ride go, out to Magalies, turn to Hekpoort after Lovers Rock, and up all the way, 105km with the last 40 going up.

You have to take into consideration that not everything works for everyone. If USN doesn't work for you, try something else. I'll use it again.

Don't waste good stuff... I drink that!

Sheesh, must be a factory fault, I've had a topeak saddle bag for a couple of years and no damage.

true, but then stay out of the bunch in a roadrace... There is scientific evidence that rear road wheels gets magnetised when turning and it attracts other roadbikes...

Seeing Momsen design "Batwings" thread reminds me of, is there any other way to attach the speed and cadence sensors than with cable ties to make it easy to swop between two bicycles? Everytime the bike change, its a whole schlep to change the sensors.

+ 1 or Box it... soft bike bags does nothing for your bike when they kick it, throw it out of a plane's cargo hold etc etc etc

uhm, don't talk too quickly, the Competition Commission is still onto the whole thing.

In SA nobody would to a thing, if you do something and beat up the criminal you're gonna get sued for assault.

Most with rather new cars, and modified golfs etc. But how many of them would be able to control the car should something go wrong?

if the reliable SA electircity goes down, your gonna be staying at home though.

Who was, who was that roadie who said Its not about the bike? Someone still has to pedal the freakin thing, 26 or 29ER.

Saw it as well... great for lazy people like me. My commute is just too far and hard to do.. will be 1:50 each way.

first, on sprints, do you finish in a position warranting a sprint. Yes, do them. No, rather do longer aerobic stamina intervals. 5 MINUTES x 10.

Have a 12-25 RD, 39/50 front on my TT bike, can't keep up the 110 cadence at 50km/h...

Uhm , I went down riding on my own, because of a pothole. Broke the helmet in 3. And even riding on your own, you still have to share the road with cars. You never know when a car drives in front of you , stop in front of you, or misjudge how wide their cars are.

No I wasn't, but thats something few people(runners, more social riders) who doesn't ride in big groups understand.

Uhm, maybe just think about riding in a big group. You have to concentrate all the time on whats happening around you, just a lapse in concentration and wheels touch, and a big crash will follow. Maybe thats the reason why they didn't greet.

+ 1 I've stopped a long time ago asking someone where his helmet is, or telling him the robot he went throught was red... if they kill themselves coming off or get themselves hit by a car. Its their problem.

if I was interested in MTbing, I would have gone for that Epic entry

A cycling club, you're kidding me?

Who said its a bargain.... ... and why is that, both are internationally sanctioned, with international price money to bring the international riders here. I would love to see when the Epic goes to Rand price money, with entry fees R2000 for 9 days(btw). What will happen there. If you want to race with the international pros, you have to enter their races, and that is in Euros. The Epic overhyped? LOL You clearly haven't done any of the overhyped races.

dont' forget about the trip to the Lab on Friday don't get your 8 legs in a knot now

there , corrected.
