Nice move then Covie The 1 in 100 that got it right........ I feel sorry for the other 99

I'll give this one a skip as a 'recovery' weekend ...... read as 'World Funride Champs' recce ride

Is it permanent touching or temporarily? permanent is the wheel is skew in the frame, temporarily means the wheel is buckled. Photos will help.

Oh ja, is the 'correct' route or are we deviating for certain parts?

I use Garmin Connect and don't get that pop up. I can't get GTC to work on Win7 Pro 64bit and my Edge 800

I parked in the field across from the Stadium and had no issues getting out..... then again I started in E and left relatively early (midday)

You meant the 26th Feb? I am interested but remember that there is a cycle race happening (Bay City) out southern suburbs way that day too. Will give some good leg loosening after the Wellington Lions race the day before.

Coffee........ a WHOLE LOT of times....... can't remember how many.

I can't even handle 15min on a trainer and I am bored beyond comprehension!

Maybe the turnout didn't have the real hardcore MTB'ers and that is why the winner's time has been adjusted so drastically..... I dunno.

Nice one DD! As far as I can remember, I started in G for Spring and am now in B (had to back a few emails to see what my seeding was at in July '11)

Well done! on Vissershok....... I might have gone up faster if I had dismounted and walked

Yeah, at one point it was just him and I that was pulling the front......

Takes a while for the page to load and that field to 'surface'.

Wicked! I spotted one of me....... post crash and riding - looking tired though!

Didn't even get to count as one of my top 3

Yeah, that stuff called 'no more nails'. OR Sika make an epoxy that hardens as hard as steel....... only thing is that you will never get it off then

Your mirror i cracked and you are looking at your own back wheel. I have already had my spate of 3 - puncture at the Wellington crit two weeks in a row and my crash on Saturday. I have paid my dues...... have you?

For garmin cadence magnet - I used the double sided tape plus cable tie. Has not budged in a year.

Nice of you to drop us off on Boyes man. Pity you can't stick it out until at least Smits..... but pulling the bunch does take it's toll on the body eh :clap: will definitely salute you at the end for my sub 3.

No denying that it is going to be flipping tough but riding elites has that nice ring (and start time) to it. LOL Nah, who am I kidding. A will be Awesome!

two weeks! Donner!

Yeah, I think I'll stay in A after Saturday's dismal effort. If I had been able to finish with your bunch (doing as awesome as you did), I would have motivated a possible Elite start....... Will be happy to start in A I guess.

Bump - no one have some advice for me?

Check the D'ville area roadies thread - join us on Sunday (unless you are doing the Medallion).
