  1. Totally agree.... Raymond if you cant perform at 110km dont blame the short races, if you want long races go to Europe and shine there if you make it, you should be able to easily break away and go solo since you prefer '150-180km races'
  2. I see the lights by linea racing is starting on the 25th of January...some conflicting dates with their races. Best is you and Wayne sort it out and perhaps host it together.
  3. That car is very neat!! Except for the bend roof...
  4. Is there perhaps an Air Cooled Culture sticker on the car? My friend knows a lot of people who belong to that club, so I will get in contact with him quick. Anybody perhaps have a picture of the car?
  5. Yes so we all crossed the white line...however the commisaire could have given all of us a warning when we took over the whole road at the Paardeberg section, he did indeed not...he just decided to can the race in the end... Yes we all were wrong, problem is we sit with A-C riders and when C riders drop we need to overtake them on the right so then we all get dq'd.... I agree with what Thornman said on fb, elites should only be A riders.
  6. I had a crash at the 99er in 2013, pedal was busted...Look sorted me out within a few days at a very very good price to replace them. Currently run Look on my MTB, Roadbike and Indoor bike because of the excellent service.
  7. Credit card, I used that option, the financing options through bike shops is at a rip off interest rate of 21%-27%+ You can get R29000 limit on your credit card (well I got that on my card but made it way less...) at an 17% interest rate (I got 17%) and you get the unemployement insurance should you be retrenched it is covered Otherwise save another 6 months extra and buy it cash...
  8. haha sorry my bad
  9. did they mention where we collect our race numbers?
  10. Rinaldo Kruger was robbed there about 2-3 weeks ago, they took his bike and cellphone. It was 4 people who attacked him, it all happened so fast when he got back up they were gone. They tackled him off the bike, scratched in his pockets and took the bike... I dont think this is the same incident but defenitely happened at the same spot. R304 Welgevonden robot. Bike stolen: Black Giant TCR Advanced and Blackberry phone
  11. I have the Russel Hobbs espresso machine which works perfect...but bought me a Nespresso machine as well to just change it off. Russel Hobbs I got for cost with a bean grinder at R600 and the Nespresso was on special for R1699 but normally is R2199 (including a 50% discount voucher for coffee)
  12. Do you feel ready? Lets chat about it on Saturday when we go ride
  13. Thats procedure, I had to work my way up to a seeding for elites, so you will need to do the same....just how life works.
  14. The team entry is an additional amount to be paid extra ontop of the individual amount
  15. Dude, the entry fee into the league is for all 7 races... PPA membership is cheap... If you not happy with the layout don't do it. PS: coffee and muffin cost money too
  16. I also prefer morning racing as I do things on weekends... I enjoy cycling and racing my bike, but it will never be my life... I agree, this afternoon racing sucks! I dont mind waking up at 4am to get to a venue, atleast I have the weekend left afterwards.
  17. Can you print frame decals too? I want my name on my bike?
  18. a bargain for people who stay close yes...for us in the Northern Subs Id rather stick to Tygerberg MTB club then as travel cost there adds about R80 at a time towards Tokai.
  19. I wanted to enter online, it then asked me 'Club'...I aint a member of any club so can I just type 'none' there?
  20. I'd say 6.6 to 6.7...he is running Zipp 202 wheels, and I assume the speedplay zero titanium pedals? Rest of the parts is quite light also
  21. About2Time? So we not using racetec chips anymore?
  22. I noticed the people who have been cycling for big amount of years benefit from the 130km+ races... The rest of us just fills up the bunch then.
  23. Meintjies for getting 2nd at World Champs....but Impey for yellow at Tour de france....it is a difficult one

  25. How do people lose their Garmin off their bike?
