Isn't Joburg flat? :-) *waving from Cape Town.... CAnt wait for my first 94.7 rude awakening.

and ends with "ankman"? seriously, are pumps also frowned upon?

I carry water in my water bottle. Is this acceptable?

hahahah. :-) that is also true in many cases.

guys, maybe this guy actually enjoyed riding his bike more than being worried what is cool, uncool, classic, not done or vagina shaped. oooh, he is not branded correctly, maybe doesn't have a seemingly endless budget and needs to make do with what he can get etc... so what?

There it is, the pasta carbo loading myth... Yes it works, for the first hour maybe. It's still better than going for the extra hot curry :-)

Mine hung itself. Felt neglected.

also in G. not sure why - see you at the beer tent rather. (aiming for survival rather than sub 3...)

The average person knows tha Table Mountain is about a thousand meters, so during the Epic they climb it x times. The average person has no idea what a "category 3 climb" means, except "frikken tough".

Very pretty, safe ride. Hills caught me out last year - mamba hill bites. Will do it again, it is just too beautiful in the West Coast NP.

"Saw a black man in a Mercedes Benz today. It was a 1978 model, but in good condition, almost certain it was stolen, also because the driver had a Congolese accent". Half the guys picking our bins on bin day have bikes like this.

yeah, also G, but am only flying up from CPT the day before, my first 94.7, have no idea how I made it into G... so, no, I wouldn't be of much help. Where is the pre-race party?

Got a great time laps app on my iPhone. Who needs canon ;-)

I might be on my own here - but I am scared, I was shocked to read about this terrible accident and am not sure I want to be the one "showing that I am not scared off the road" - reading about this accident has made me realize again how dangerous it is out there, on our little fragile carbon bikes. I cancelled my ride this morning, and I am very sorry for the family of this fellow ride who died yesterday. Not sure how I can justify taking this kind of risk for now.

I almost told him if I beat you I get yours, if you beat me you get mine... awesome looking bike.

in the start chute on Saturday was a oldish guy on his Dogma with electronic gears. the price of my car. his rear wheel was twice the price of my bike. I beat him by 3 minutes.

+awesome!

this thread calls for one of those pictures : "what we think our workshops look like what our wives think our workshops look like what our mates think our workshops look like what our colleagues think our workshops look like what it really looks like." any photoshop artists here...?

if you drink USN Epic Pro Passionfruit the taste is consistent. bought mine a year ago and it still tastes like baby vomit. Add: I actually don't know what baby vomit tastes like.

"You must be a female or something wrong with you" for liking the bike. :-)

The only nice thing in those pics is wearing a bikini.

I have never seen a fly / mozzie that follows a cyclist at 30 km/h, so what's the benefit?

George, my dog/lion/persian. Don't be rude, please.

see, I haven't been on my bike in a race in months. this is about the only flat race in CPT. with this wind it is going to feel like one loooong uphill. are the lucky draw prices worth it? :-)
