  1. No one ridden this before
  2. Does anyone have info on the route for this event. How is the roads, elevation?
  3. Thanks, these should be issues you should then experience on a MTB as well, except maybe the issue with lighter wheels, Sounded like a valid argument so your rreponse on the issue added more value.
  4. Definitely not shopping new . So mostly it is caliper, but then I found one with Discs. I have done around 120 000 km on my current roadbike and bought it second had , so looking for the best value I can get but that will last a few years as well.
  5. Have a few options of 2014/5 models Bianchi with SRAM red 10 speed caliper brakes, vs Gian 2018 with 11 spd, and disc breaks. I am leaning to the future proofing.
  6. Hi, I am looking to replace my old bike that I have been riding from 2009. So my question is with the new technology around, Do I get an older higher spec( 10speed, dura ace) bike or a newer bike slightly lower spec (disc , 11spd, disc brakes) . Would it be an issue in 5 years to get spares for the caliper brakes for instance?
  7. Thanks for the feedback. Will be using the knowledge gained
  8. Hi, My son would need to get his learners license in a few months time. Is there people with some tips to just make it a bit easier to get booking, and where to get the best study aids to ensure a pass first time. Thanks
  9. Hoping Meintjies and pozzovivo can deliver more points in the Giro, Nizzolo will probanly be there as well.
  10. My Main issue with NTT is the fact that they did not ride that much as a team , and the sprinters seem to work each for them selves , or if the had a leadout , they started to early, I guess it is not that easy to manage but they seem to either drop the sprinter of at 1 km or they were going at it all alone. 10th and 12th in the final an example.
  11. Loved it as well. Nice to see the passion behind the scenes . Landa totally different to what imagined him to be. Nairo, just not happy, Well you could see the difference in his results this year. He might have won the Tour.
  12. He did well on Sunday in similar type of Race, but there he was closing all the gaps in the last 20 kays and had no sprint left, So I think that was still fresh in the memory. He is in bloody good shape, Therefore if the races is hard he does better than the pure sprinter stages.
  13. I know he spends a lot of time in Italy as well as some other members , wondering if they will be able to get out of Italy now to race. Maybe not for a while.
  14. A good(bad) second for Nizollo again yesterday. Looks like he is in good form. The climbers also did well on Saturday in France. This while the guys were released from the UAE tour last night as well.
  15. I am looking to set up lights for outside mainly for security reasons and maybe some inside as well . If you do lights only that can work of DC you do not need an inverter, My question is , Can you use any battery? Like a car battery for instance to be charged via a solar panel?
  16. Just wondering if the Covid-19 will have any say in the start of the race.
  17. De Bod ruled out of the rest of the tour together with Thompson after yesterdays fall early in the stage . At least Possovivo who also fell is still in.
  18. Posovivo climbing well this early in his come back and a good showing by De Bod yesterday in the UAE tour. Will be nice if they both can stay top 15 and possible top 10 for Posovivo.
  19. Hopefully will be able to confirm another win in 45 minutes or so.
  20. Looks like Dylan Sunderland is the man for NTT. Let see if he can kick on in the last few KM's.
  21. Lets Hope Louis Meintjies keeps the Momentum going in Langkawi today. NTT have two in the break of 14
  22. Second place to Janse Van Rensburg today with Bahrain taking the victory , however again it is not Cav leading Bahrain. Max Walscheid also took the win in the pre race Crit this morning, so looking slightly better for the Team.
  23. Hope NTT and Reiny have better luck today, maybe they must ride a bit further away from UAE.
  24. RJVR 13th Cav 34th. So at least RJVR beat Cav but no victory. 5th for Borbero , sa a few more points for the team.
  25. I Hope to See RJVR beat Cav in the sprint today. Just ending up ahead of him will be good , Winning the sprint will be brilliant. Looks Like NTT doing a few more smaller races this year to maybe get confidence and points up before the bigger races. Lets hope all goes well in the next few days.
