  1. Sure' date=' I have loan units available. Send me a note at "bruce dot diesel AT gmail dot com" if you would be interested in testing yourself. Wireless powertap is just a change of wheel on the bike and you are good to go.[/quote'] Thanks, I will send you a mail.
  2. Bruce: Do you do such tests for guys/girls not owning a powertap?
  3. I think counting will be faster than electronic imagine Winning time doing election results
  4. Dont buy a cheap 15 spanner get a Real Gedore or a Parktool pedal spanner. The cheap spanners from P&P will work once or twice and then it is bleeding nukles as the thing slips off.
  5. Spinergy 100% cool
  6. If you own both bikes but prefer the road, should you select both or just road.

  11. I have been reading Joe Friel's book "training bible for cyclists" and he recommends having a protein and Carb drink/meal within the first half hour after a hard ride. for me that would be, 37.5g Protein and 150g Carbs One scoop protein, 70g raw oats, 30g rasins, mix with apple juise and water.
  12. Nice bike.
  13. No! Bought a Helmet beginning of the year had it send to my post box, I only payed for the item and the shipping, no vat no dutys no noting. Saved about R500 on a 2009 sweep R compared with a 2008 model at LBS.
  14. Applied 1 Des 2008, received noting yet!!! I applied early to avoid the rush but clearly it was a hope in hell. So much for doing the right thing!! I received a mail this morning: Dear Gerrie, Your licence has been confirmed on the 17th March, will be mailed within the next 2 weeks. Kind regards Joanne This was after they told me on the 1st of march that my License was confirmed on the 27th of Feb 2009. Gman18342009-03-24 06:15:26

  17. < ="-" ="text/; =utf-8">< name="ProgId" ="Word.">< name="Generator" ="Microsoft Word 11">< name="Originator" ="Microsoft Word 11"><> It is very simple: Bicycle prices goes true the roof, race entries gets ridiculous. Less people buy bikes, les people go to races, smaller races gets less tv coverage and sponsors pull out. No more ?fun? riders to pay license fees thus less money to send pros over sea. The result: a sport that has grown over years dies, some people will still drive their fancy cars and live in fancy houses.
  18. as soon as i visit my parents i will make a copy if no one beats me to it.

  20. nice, sweet. what do those bikes go for?
  21. Haai sies Wolfie, ons het fun gehad op daai race/fun ride. The only negative thing about last year was the "racing groups" riding the fun riders of the road, next time i will take an exstra pump Powerade can only be cold for so long, it is hard to keep it cold if some people take their time on a 151km ride.
  22. Last year I did the vasbyt 107km race (R100.00) this year the route will be the same as lastyear and to make it attractive the organizers are noticing the global financial crises and redused the entree fee. This race is worth doing.
