  1. OMW @ a MTB track. Sorry to hear this. WTH is going on. We are no where safe anymore to enjoy our sport. Seems we have to ride a around , strapped these days. Best of luck and hope the family is ok
  2. NB- This was just some humor fun that seem to have offended some. I do apologize for the inconsideration of the post. I will remove it .
  3. It was a silly Q, but thought that by some miracle it could assist. Fingers x that you get some good news though.
  4. Sorry to read about this as it happened recently and i travel that road. This is a dumb question but cant the chip be tracked on the front wheel or is it just for race days and there equipment ?
  5. Hi. on Gumtreee there is the exact same bike for sale. Just pedals are different. This is the nr on the add 083 2310974 This was posted 9hrs ago on gumtreee. Hope its good news
  6. On a side note. I dont have a speed sensor for my bluetooth bryton . Can i link a garmin bluetooth, etc to it, or does it have to be bryton ?
  7. Awesome news as i recently just returned and never had a chance to complete my entry. Do you think the late entry will still be @ R425 ?, or will it increase ? Regards
  8. Shame. We were 6, now we 3. If we do a breakdown, it would be ridiculous. We'll for the riders that can afford it without any issues, good luck. We will be cheering from the side. Was this not a charity event? Seems like a money event now.
  9. My first official race besides completing the argus tour last year.
  10. Good Day This will be the first time i am participating in a D.Dash. 90km Do you have any pointers for the race ? What to look out for, what not to do ? What yo watch out for, etc. Regards
  11. Good Day All Riders/Non Riders , Etc... I am making a note today to just give a SPECIAL THANK YOU for making Sunday Happen AS for many of us, we just wanted to be on the road and enjoy the tour and I won't get into much detailS as well and keep it short. COVID has had a huge toll on many of us , with loss and recovery and making it somewhat more difficulty as the body was not the same as it used to be but yet found the courage to complete the tour. Pure determination and dedication and a huge " THUMBS UP " as I have seem many call the "UBER" and seeing the bikes on the trailer ... Just .... Can't explain ( Crying face) as I was almost 1 of them that was about to give up. Actually I did, but then a GOOD SAMARITAN Came past and stopped as I was lying on the pavement along the road ( OU KAAPSE WEG JUST BEFORE THE SHELL GARAGE ) , assisted me as my legs started giving in. I forgot to ask his name but all I no is that he said it's his first Agrus and he had on a Brown bib with white top ( I no it took a lot of your time away ) .If you are reading this. THANK YOU SO SO MUCH FOR STOPPING AND ASSISTING ME WITH MY LEFT LEG (BAD BAD CRAMPS) Hope I can repay the favour to the next rider that needs assistance . It helped me get on NOORDHOEK MAIN ROAD but then all "H@LL" broke loose and both my legs gave in just opposite " Eduexcellence Education". The Marshalls, Traffic officer came over and said they will call a Medic. It was then that I knew, " IT'S OVER. I'm GIVING UP. I had enough as the body was not playing it's part any more like it use too. Then out of nowhere, 2 angels walked over with their dogs and just helped me, encouraged me even went to checkers to get more liquids( Used their own money) .I again want to thank those 2 ladies as they said they were avid cyclist but not taking part. They gave me my strength back and the will to carry on. Man, I felt good after that. ( How do I, how can I ever repay you -I just have a metal picture ) Cramps were gone but still abit sore and I took my bike and carried on as I was looking for the next massage tents . LOL and after that, lets just say I did not get any cramps and took the next step to complete the climbs and by the grace of GOD , I manage to FINISH with a SMILE with no legs pulling stiff on me ... Well I was in pain after the finish ,Heheheheeh , But I finished and lost out about 2 hours. ONCE again, to the helpers along the way , a special thank you for helping those in needs. A rider never knows who will be your guardian angel. Looking forward to the next Tour and hopefully I will see them along the way and properly thank them. Keeping it short. Cheers . Almost forgot the most import as well, there was a group from brackenfell before fish hoek that was giving drinks, Super C sweets . Guys, THANK YOU , THANK YOU . Whoever gave me that leg massage, helped me in the end as well as you could of seen I was in bad shape , oh and thanks for the Huge SUN HAT. Heheheheheh

  13. Good 1 " before you get hungry and thirsty - smile for the camera."
  14. Any advice to the newbies joining the race-well sort of turtle race :)) What to do and what not to do in order to just at least finish. 80km was pretty easy but sucked on the first hill. Was doing about 4-5km after that , is was a breeze to simons.
  15. I threw this away last week. Didn't expect someone would need it but was clearly wrong.
