Edition 507

What an incredible voice!

This girl is so f*cking gorgeous in a nerdy kind of way. That smile is simply infectious and her voice is beautiful.

Awful luck eddy, what a bummer, particularly after all the stress of getting those parts on time!

Brave man I've done this rigid SS thing 3 times now, getting too old, time to up the comfort level

Going solo again but this time on a full sus. Too much pain last year on my rigid SS.

Solo joberg2c entry available R12,000. PM me.

Late entry – R500.00 [To 15 April 2018]. Last minute entry – R800.00 [At race pack collection]. Your entry fee is f*cking insane! My rectum gets sore just looking at those figures!

26 inch mtb wheels?

There have been 755,180 finishers in the 40 years of the event, so 3 deaths as a percentage of the total finishers over the years is tiny. Some people will argue that one death is too many but if you really think about it, sending off 30,000 cyclists all within a few hours of each other, to race as fast as possible along a route that is often narrow and curvy and with high speed descents, that's pretty insane!

I had such a great day and a great ride, rode in a bunch with some good comradery, just very sad that lives were lost in the same event. Sincerest condolences to the family and friends of the riders and marshal, your lives have been changed forever. Strength in the days ahead!

I heard CTCycleTour is hastily making plans to go and fetch the patch from Canada!

I thought they would have learned from the Ride4Sight number printing f*ckup!

God I hope your mates dad lives long enough to get his number!

Which begs the question "Why the **** do you Cape Town okes insist in lighting fires around the CTCT date?"

Apparently you can down a whole bottle of Tequila and still walk in a straight line if you wearing a power balance bracelet. This is how good they work! Driving and wearing a power bracelet has been banned in twenty states in the USA because of this, as people were getting hammered and then driving home knowing full well that if the state troopers pulled them over for a sobriety test they would pass with flying colors.

Unbelievable physical and mental achievement, 2 hours sleep in just about 60 hours of cycling

Kudos on a SS!

Go Benks!

Bra, I think the problem with the morph suite is that it blends in with the grass and algae and moss and all the other green stuff found on the Juma, which confuses the f*ck out of you brain as it can't tell where your body ends and the ground begins!

That Morph suite seems to turn you into a bit of a plonker hey!

Got Ground Control on front and Racing Ralph on the rear and had three or four heart stopping wobblies coming out of the Anatomic tunnel, otherwise everywhere else they were fine.

We might as well go the whole hog in preventing idiots from harming themselves, so sun block should be LAW!! Skin cancer is a killer and surely costs the economy millions!

I saw a whole bunch of sweaty cyclists today without helmets. Oh Boy was I about to give them a piece of my mind....then I realized they were at Fournos drinking coffee

As opposed to the Veterinarian kind? Are they cost saving by using the local Vet in the medical tent?
