    CSA / gravel

    Frosty replied to betaboy's topic in Ask Anything

    There are events, and it currently falls under MTB. Ironic, as a gravel bike can't compete in the same category as a MTB.

    Dopers suck

    VA rider from the highveld; you can find his palmares on Racetec’s results page. https://www.facebook.com/cycle.nation1/posts/pfbid05wKHuf7PGs2JH6NHeZXCFkEotaovZyEsQyLPu8Qt1wZ8grFvZjj9rqGK6L1o4Pkul

    Me too.

    Have you got a .fit file to share? Are you using Intervals.icu or even the Strava analysis that can show your workout summary? I have two 4iiii PMs and they are fine. Here is a relatively steady 7-minutes (Intervals on top and Strava below). The bottom chart (first image) has raw power and a 3s average on one plot (it'sdifficult to see unless you zoom in, and also move the cursor along the timeline). But you can see the point in time has 143 (raw) and 155 (3s) the power, with a lot of change in the raw power for a relatively steady eddie pace).

    1 hour at 119 bpm gets 300 points (70% of 220-age); being a relatively, fit toppie has its advantage. 😊

    Chilling, at the back of the bunch for an hour… 🤡😁😂

    I don’t know; I’m not a high performance athlete, so stick to the 900 point goal. I can only relay information that I see on their webpage/app. It was meant to be for athletes that ride long and easy, but use a generic 220-age formula.

    Was referring to this blurb, to join the performance category; they refer to 2018 event (outdated in 2024). Vitality high performers This category within Vitality is by application only. As well as completing a simple eligibility questionnaire online to ensure that it is safe to exercise for long durations, eligibility will also be based on 2018 race event participation or device-recorded vigorous workouts of at least 90 minutes. Members wishing to be part of this category will be asked to satisfy ongoing eligibility criteria. Members who are at-risk with certain chronic conditions, health concerns during pregnancy, or members aged 65+ with risk factors are not eligible for the Endurance and High Performance category.

    If you get 300 points for a 5h ride, you aren’t on the endurance option. You have to apply for it, and you have to be able to ride at a certain km/h average in “qualifying races”.

    You should see the public perception of the Alberton Hospital, a Netcare hospital. Lots of complaints about poor care, incompetent staff and doctors, and many other problems. I don't have personal experience, but have heard a number of stories.

    In Greyton, it shows the elevation from 817m to 232m? Is that when one falls off the chair from having had too many? Jokes aside, looks like fun.

    🤐 😊

    I worked out that the MSA annual cost was +/- R45k, for me. We spend about R9k on medical costs per year. Sure, the savings add up over time, and you can cash in, but then you have down grade to a non-savings plan for the new year; plus wait 6 months for any outstanding claims.

    Then there is the pending NHS, or whatever it's called.

    I don't recall, ever, going into a bike shop, and wait while they call the dealer/distributor for a query. Usually they will call me back during the day, with stock availability and price.

    Some 3 hour weekend rides are too easy, and the speed data gets 100 points. Average HR too low. Spot the HIT session… 45 minutes on IndieVelo 🤦‍♂️

    Message from Versus; for those it might apply to. https://strava.app.link/STkcWMMHAGb

    If using Real Debrid, they recommend using a VPN as they share personal information, eg. IP address, email, etc.

    As an out of towner (Johannesburg), I enjoyed the Overberg region, during my 3 week holiday. Lots of options available from Hermanus https://www.trailforks.com/region/hermanus/?activitytype=1&z=9.3&lat=-34.21847&lon=19.26069&content=trails,labels,nst,region,poi,directory,polygon,waypoint

    Summer Fast One. Ride there, start at back of batch B, see how many people we can pass, have a few beers, ride home.

    Coffee ride today.

    Thanks for the update, that was last year's route I posted.

    I opened the link to looking for the same answer, as the Velon CC IG feed shows him in yellow kit. https://www.instagram.com/p/C17Q5WuNDHf/?img_index=2
