Can we wrap this up please? Ftiday is coming and we have to discuss the 'pomp' thing. Maybe someone who carries a saddle bag should start a thread on what size bag to carry, what to carry, and excuses for carrying it.
From the Cyclo Sportif entry page: This series will count towards your seeding for the Cape Town Cycle Tour. http://www.pedalpower.org.za/events/pedal-power-association-190/ Enter this one and see what happens. Not sure if seeding will be done by then.
Looks like something SKY would use. Silca sponsors Sagan, consecutive Triple World Champion so it just has to be cooler, which gets us closer to pro-like status isn't it?
I threw my saddle bag away in the 90's. Pocpac in my jersey or spares bag in my spare cage on short rides. Just as I was coaxing my friend away from a saddle bag he goes and buys a top tube bag.
How does the Maluti Double 90 compare to the current DC? They only have one stop and the clock does not stop. I can remember doing the Maluti in late 80's and the climbs around Bethlehem are spectacular. Not sure if the scenery takes your breath away or the elevation.
The 1st 50 teams have been allocated start times from 5-5:26 am.

Anyone here have a Rocket Espresso machine from their domestic range? Are they worth the money or should I be looking at something else. I would like to delve into the realm of making real coffee at some point.
