Cippo

I smaak Old Hels with all its twists and turns. A pre-race warmup is essential to do well going up.

Gonna miss Burger due to injury from DC. My arm is confined to a sling for two weeks. Atleast my entry went to a DC team mate who couldn't get one. Have a good safe ride guys 'n gals.

Hoe lekker lag ek nou.

What would Jens do?

Went for xrays earlier. The head of my radial bone in forearm is broken. Have to see an orthopod tomorrow. Depending on severity it might need surgery or just left to heal. Im hoping for the latter. Do not wanna miss Burger. Rule # 5 comes to mind.

On the wishlist.

Loving the Colnago pics @ gummi.

Respect dude! Safe trip home.

Awesome event. Took a tumble on Tradouw, just a touch of wheels and I went down. Battled for rest of ride struggling to hold and shift with my right hand as I had hit my right arm and elbow. We made it 12 over the line together, so objective achieved. Anybody know the guy that slammed the wall on Tradouw as he lay motionless on side of road? First thing I grabbed at Op de Tradouw feeding station was some aspirin. Had to pop some Panados at Ashton to get through ride. Rest well guys and girls to recover for Burger

Frail, what time did you get to Swellendam? You were at Grabouw after 5pm.

Good to see you boss. Did your team make Top 10?

Seriously? Jy's 'n bietjie laat. Entries were sold out months ago. Google 'coronationdc 2013' and check it out. There might still be some teams on this thread looking for riders.

Get a clip on bike rack for your boot. Cheaper option than a roof rack.

I wonder if his team has the legs.

PM Big Mac. He knows of two guys.

Good luck.

No worries. Most of the team is doing 1st DC, our expectations are'nt high. 12 over the line together is the main goal.

Wela kapela! 5:34 start.

Predictions have been consistent with low 20's and a South Easter to Easterly wind. The Robertson to home stretch will be challenging.

Results are up on Racetec.

Eina!!! Heal well boss.

GP4000's are food for special events and lighter than Gator's but you won't get the mileage out of them. They are basically race tyres.

Bargain with Solomon's at the Expo. Price should be below R350. Worth every cent.

My two favourite things on wheels.

Frame is below 30K. Check with Desmond at Complete Cyclist in Hout Bay. The M10 is a mono-q frame and lighter than C59. Europcar choice for the mountain stages.
