    "Georg is struggling, He can't quite motive himself to push hard because he still has some personal problems." - something to that extent. Will try and find the timestamp later

    Bit in bad taste for Ariane to talk about Georg and his personal life?

    Was it a Cecil Nurse add?

    Have the ladies started yet? 👀
  5. R/km became a bit more expensive 😛 https://www.atta.co.za/route-tweaks-likely-to-produce-faster-hell-of-the-south-in-january-2026/
  6. But how did Alan win a WC? Was he running a 34T? Can't believe that... For a WC maybe, but for something like Epic the pro's are not gonna run a 34T right?
  7. Is the 34T limit a frame limitation, or the chain guide limit? (my bike doesn't have this fancy stuff...)

    But how does this help? Let's look at the broadcasts of years passed... Men and women are both still riding - 20% of coverage is on the women. Men finish - 10% of coverage is on the women Men wash themselves - 80% coverage is on the women (for 20mins) Men ceremony - 0% coverage is on the women (and now it's go time for them in arguably the most critical time of the race) Men ceremony done - 100% coverage on women, but Specialized already broke away so we missed the action New schedule: Men and women are riding - 20% of coverage on women Men and woman finish - 50% coverage on woman TLDR - if ACE doesn't prioritise actually broadcasting the womens race then, this new format will be worse for them?
  9. Other years the same thing happen. The mens podium and highlight are shown when the ladies race is at the peak. It just feels like basics they are not getting right. Thank goodness Cecil Nurse isn't a sponsor!
  10. So unrealistic... how did they manage to get time for riding with 4 kids (not pictured here)?? I mean, why else would they have this van :-)
  11. Wonder what their marketing budget was to also resurface the pass...
  12. Ya I still only have 5kWh of battery. So I need to limit my discharge during the night, and even top it up with grid. Because if my battery is at 20-30% at 06:00 in the morning and I get hit with loadshedding I'm screwed. When I have money again I'll get another battery. Or a bike. Depends on how Cyril handles Eskom.
  13. 35A x 220V = 7.7kW for AC passtrough? My house has a 60A main breaker and 63A earth leakage. This dates from the 1980's though, so new stuff might be different.
  14. I think the Lux power is an excellent option. The addition features of the Deye comes at a price and it will take me quite a long time before I pay it off using the savings. In short - it will take me longer before I can buy a new bike.
  15. You need to make sure your CT Coil is installed correctly (this is the hardware that measures the grid power draw) (sorry about the red text...)
