  1. My points or workouts havent been reflecting for 2 weeks on the Vitality app. So I have not been getting my free smoothies either. My team mates in my group also telling me Im the weak link. Called the Discovery Vitality people and the consultant reckons Ive reached the maximium limit of 15000 points for fitness workouts. Can this be? only had the app for 3 weeks on my phone
  2. Thanks guys. @ David I will pop around the shop later and pick one up. Its close to my office.
  3. guys, where can i find a 58mm double non-pressurized basket for a Gaggia Classic?
  4. Im looking to get a grinder to pair up with my espresso machine. Is the Hario Skerton manual grinders good enough for espresso shots? Or should i go electric?
  5. Where can i find Schwalbe One tyroe? I see Evobikes don't have stock
  6. I agree with Pure Savage. Those red lines made a massive difference on the Woodstock side coming from town. There is still the odd car parking on the bike lane. But I think things will only get better.
  7. I reckon it makes a good cuppa. Im not exactly a coffee snob but my wife is. So I get her to do the taste tests. I had to play around with dosing and see what works. When you say you couldn't get it up to pressure... How do you know that the pressure is lacking?
  8. Found this espresso machine at a place that sells second hand furniture in Woodstock. Then rushed off to Truth Coffee and bought a bag of beans. The helpful lady at Truth offered to grind the beans for me. (I know the grinding should be done just before I pull a shot but I don't have a grinder yet) Took me a couple of cups of coffee before I got it right
  9. Breville machines any good?
  10. In most cases these "celebs" as you call them, actually use their status for good causes. Like raising funds for charities.
  11. I rode the Cape Epic last year for Liqui fruit. They sponsored me with a entry and 5 Castelli kits. They also paid for my massages. Everything else was for my own account. In return we had to raise funds for 2 boys who were attacked by pitbulls and needed reconstructive surgery. It was part of the Miles For Smile Foundation.
  12. Wow! A lot of ignorant comments regarding safety in Oman. Let me remind u that Korkie was killed by the American special forces. You guys sound like American tourists who cancelled their holidays to South Africa "coz they have Ebola".
  13. Added a Oakley Jupiter Carbon to my eyewear collection.
  14. I gave up Crossfit for this exact reason. The training used to be sp intense that I couldn't recover in time for my cycling interval training sessions
  15. I rode W2W and Garden Route 300 as prep for Epic this year. Another must do race is Attakwas
  16. Looks similar to the Swift Ultravox
  17. We all remember how Robbie went flying up the Alps when he rode for Phonak back in the day. He was even able to climb with David George during the Giro Del Capo one year.
  18. Put on your best wet weather tyres if you have. That mud is really slippery
  19. 4 months turnaround time is the norm. DG was also informed 4 months later. Impey requested his B sample be tested and was present at that test. End of the day he failed an IQ test. He probably didn't think they would pick that substance up in his body since its such a outdated substance these days.
  20. I noticed taxis and motorists give me more space(1.5m) and more respect on the road if I'm commuting with my backpack. I reckon they see an ordinary guy on his way to work trying to make a living. When I commute to work without my backpack they probably see a lycra clad nuisance.
  21. Anyone know Malcolm Fox personally? Can you PM me his contact details pls.
  22. Sagan is a ex-mtber. He started out his career as a mtber and won the Slovak Junior Championship on his sisters borrowed bicycle.
  23. It should have 3. Lockout, Trail and Descend. (LTD) Is LTD written on your top tube anywhere?
