Pure Savage

Nobody is stuck behind cyclists, its all the people sitting in metal boxes going nowhere slowly.

There was a Karen on facebook complaining about a cyclists getting in her way and swearing at her when she swerves into them. The average speed on kalk bay main road at 11am on saturday was 15km/h, so not sure where Karen wanted to get passed the cyclists. Always astonished that people are in a rush to sit in traffic or a red light.

Well....

Listen its only ever 4 years we have to put up with Olympics... I know its a nice distraction before the Vuelta and WC though...

Like our entire nation, if you want anything, has to be private, health care - private, airline - private, schooling - private. Poor athletes being paraded around by political vulatures a week before olympics.

Everyone LOVES See through baggy lycra!

I see there is a Track and Road cycling mechanics, so no sharing of staff it seems. See the Track manager is posting the videos and Jean is just re posting them, as is a lot of other people.

I think there is 10 seconds between the best, but between the best and the average is probably 45 seconds.

Not sure if its been discussed, see on instagram, the Cycling SA appointed mechanic is MIA for the track cyclists. SA getting help from other nations mechanics. Do they not get their trips paid for etc?

Basically a, "Bye Felicia!" There is more money sending all the bikes to the US and EU markets, rather than sending stuff here.

clientS

It was only there for a very short time though

I have left a road bike in the back of a car for years while out at clients, no issues.

I didn't know that Russia was still not a thing. They are really doubling down on that one..

What happened to his trade team mate, was just ahead of him I think for most of the race? Kudos to Alan!

The dutch team need to work on their communication.

It really depends what sport, cycling is not that hard to pick up later in life, it just comes down to power. There is zero chance a keen 20 year old goes to play in the NHL for Ice Hockey having played only in winters in US or Canada or Russia. We played against Canadian kids that grew up on ice skates and that could dribble a puck at age 4. If you are not in academy at 16 you are not playing NHL. There is just no catching up. If you an endurance athlete, you can easily switch from running, riding, cross country ski, etc.

Could they not make it around 2pm ish?

This whole, waiting 2 weeks for a race like normal is painful. Can Lewis and Max not have a 100 lap cart race this weekend? Maybe do a sportif on a tandem together?

You can make me whole again...

Things the Merc Admin will not post after this video, Lewis's crowd reaction...

I asked my mate to bring back a brawnGP hat from German GP. My number 1 possession.

Flip, I hope this is not going too far off topic and this thread gets removed. I am not very good with that discord thing

Yeah, they seem very quick to act when there is possible financial loss due to law suits etc. Like there are certain words twitter should have flagged that if you try use, flags your account as suspended, review and dealt with.

I see there is outrage regarding racism, I dont understand, cannot twitter and instagram just sort this out? I can't post a pic Mrs Savage topless as gets pulled down before I get any clout due to nipples and I cannot say COVID is fake as twitter pulls that down in 20 seconds. But somehow clear racist language is allowed to sit and fester on the platforms for hours. Its not a massive number 3/5 accounts should be quick to nip in the bud.
