I race bmx with a leatt. Have had numerous bad falls and had never even had a stiff neck after a crash. However I do believe wearing a neck brace exposes your head as you cant tuck your head in during a fall. That exactly happened to me while wearing a light weight giro remedy helmet and the front mouth piece snapped and came through my mouth and breaking my nose in 30 odd places. Had i not worn a leatt my helmet would not have taken such a severe impact but who knows what would have happened to my neck? Lesson learnt and now I still always ride with a leatt but only use a dot and snell approved motorbike helmet.
Hi, any help would really be appreciated. My tandem's rear pedals has never been removed since bying it new in 2007. They are completely seized in the crank. And with numerous prior attempts of removing them has the 15mm bolt stripped! Anyone out here whom had this before?
Buy the book: 12 week triathlete by tom holland. He has got a realistic program for sprint, olympic, 70.3 and full ironman Ive used his program for 6 ironman and a lot of other ultra distance events succesfully.
I did the 30km and only entered that morning. Got a C seeding and expected over crowded paths but to my surprise I had a jol and the traffic was very easy enough to pass most of the time. Only lost maybe 5 minutes due to traffic. However the results has got me as 5 minutes slower than I did. Also didnt dq c batch riders whom started 20 minutes early with A or B. My daughter did the 10km and she is usually competitive in the 10y category. Was surpriced that she didnt make podium and then saw she isnt on the results. Last Usn we did was the first one for the year and they got the timing wrong there as well. So in a nutshell it was much better then I expected it to be but the timing is a mess. Luckily we not really mtbers and only do it for fun!
Ive cycled up Mikes pass and then the first section of the contour path towards Cathedral Peak is a jeep track. But after a few km it becomes proper hiking trail and you wont get much further. I have also hiked the contour path extensively and every time you have to cross a valley the path disappears and drops down through thick vegetation and up again on the other side of the river. Wont be able to get through on a bike. Mikes pass was fun, especially going down!
I am riding tandem in the seeded groups and it is a really dumb idea to put us with the single bikes as most single bike riders dont understand the lines of a tandem. Also impossible to match the singles on climbs and accellaration. They should rather have a racing tandem group plus three other seeded tandem groups.
My wife and I are in H on tandem. We always wear long socks! Hoping for 3h30 with no long distance km's and only lots of bmx training for Worlds in May. Wife running only this year as she doing first comrades. Thus 4h is also possible! Remember to behave on your single bike around the tandems as we cant swerve or alter or lines in the twisties.
I stopped supporting the races in the vaal as the event organiser there likes to cancel a race the morning of the race after you travelled all the way South from Jhb.
I use a fuel belt bought from Troisport. 4 small bottels of just under 200ml each. Enough for me for a 30km run where i take 1 sip every 2km. Only use it for 15km +
Compressed my T4 vertibra to half its size 7 years ago. Partial tore to Left rotator cuff 1 year ago Smashed my face and nose 6 months ago - had 2 operations to fix nose Broke my wrist and grade 3 seperation of ac joint. Walking with external fixator in wrist (till Christmas)and hookplate in shoulder (till middle next year) Hope to be on roadbike early Jan and then asap on mtb and bmx in time for bmx worlds in May. It sucks when you get hurt but cant wait to get back on.
