Me, as a member of Vaal Triangle Cycle Club.

This was never mentioned in any biology lesson I ever attended.

And that’s the thing. As with saddles, bibs and everything else, it’s down to the individual. I have a practically new pair of Ciovita Corsa bib shorts that are so uncomfortable that I can’t even use them for a 30 minute indoor ride but I know many people who say that the Corsa’s are the only bibs they will ever need or want.

This is a route I might HAVE to go down.

I can’t speak for their lifespan as they’re fairly new to me, but these are by far the most comfy and appropriately snug gloves I’ve ever worn. https://ciovita.co.za/products/versa-short-finger-glove-white?_pos=8&_fid=c55812f51&_ss=c&variant=48196100522168

@Barry He was the very first person I reached out to. He said he’ll give me some feedback tomorrow. @Richiespares has been super helpful in the past with hoods, I’m holding thumbs that he can come through on this as well. But in the meantime I’m reaching out to anyone and everyone.

I lost my right hand side shifter name plate last week and it turns out that it’s especially hard to find as well as being out of production. Can anyone point me in the direction of someone that could possibly help me find a new or even decent second hand one? It will be a bonus if they have right and left hand sides as I’ll take them both. Part number is Y07X98020

@Zama7 In answer to your first question I’d say it’s best to stay as close to the finish(Green Point Stadium), as possible. That will give you some room for a nice little warm-up on the way to the start area in the CBD, and also allow you to be close to home when you finish. I felt like death after my first tour and then still had to ride 10k back to our apartment. It was not fun!

I think it’s telling you to listen to Depeche Mode. I wouldn’t ignore it.

This just goes to prove how subjective bibs are. I have a pair of Corsa 2’s are they are without a doubt the WORST bibs I have ever worn. Uncomfortable as all heck and the stitching started unravelling after the second use. On the other end, I have two pairs of Supremos that are as comfortable as my Assos Equipe RS S9’s that I’ve happily spent 8 hour rides in.

A new firmware update was released on 9 Sept. WR24-17068. Nothing about this issue was mentioned in the release notes, but my Roam now finds GPS in about 15 to 20 Seconds. Hopefully that will help you as well.

@Jaco Steyn I’m in VDBP(and I belong to VTCC). If you change your collection point to West Rand Cycles, I’ll happily collect your race pack for you.

I’m not sure I seen Wahoo themselves say it, but there were a lot users who suggested it be done that way, so I just followed suit. I just timed mine and it took 3 minutes.
