  1. Yarre what a k@k day out!! Got drop 30km into the race bonked badly but worked well with another dude for about 10km then started to make some in roads again on some bunches, hit the 70km and tank was empty so just cruised to the finish line!! The wind was so bad
  2. i wonder howcome, probably the R510 entry fee??
  3. My main gripe is how do you justify a 55% increase in entry cost? as a % increase this is even above the EPIC!! yet you subjected to more neutral zones with crappy road conditions.
  4. Well if the one tonner can go at R150 how can you justify a cost of R1000pp IMHO I dont need food served to me at the finish because iam a fussy eater anyway.
  5. meezo rode last year for you guys, we can borrow him this year since you got one of our ex-rider.
  6. So true I was in europe on holiday and my panasonic camera was giving battery issues, took it into a panasonic dealer in amsterdam and 2days later it was sorted. Apparently its a factory fault on them. no questions asked.
  7. For those hubbers that were around I do remember this being discussed in detail. but to put things into perspective in 2009 an ultegra 6700 groupset was retailing in RSA for almost double what I was bringing them in (ex vat) but even so the prices went through the roof.
  8. I'm a member of a small CC which uses PSG, fees wise Investec and Standard are the cheapest IMO. The markets are taking a beating and I lost a good few $$$$$ in both my private and company portfolio. If you generated a positive alpha in Jan you must of been extremely lucky. On the other hand one of my friend's trades on volatility and has made a killing, between 1 Oct - to date he invested 50k and has more than doubled since then.
  9. I'm thinking somewhere along the garden route maybe?
  10. So I learnt something new today.
  11. Francois maybe post a few pics for the gents from start to finish if you can.
  12. its basically live cultures and probiotics thats similar to yogurt but way better and also contains vitamin A, B2,B12,D,K,calcium and magnesium. all you do is add a few grains to milk, ferment it 24-36hours then strain and drink it.
  13. Where did you get them? heard amazing things about these grains but haven't tried it yet, I have a sensitive stomach and apparently it causes a upset tummy for a while.
  14. Toe the pads ever so slightly and you sorted
  15. I have both Assos and Castelli, I first bought a castelli and was kinda happy but on longer than 3hr rides it got uncomfortable I weighed 96kg though. Then I jumped on the Assos wagon and it certainly felt like a huge upgrade over the castelli at the time but it too wasn't much more comfortable over 3-4hr rides. When I was in europe I found some castelli shorts at a very good price and since 2012 I have only stuck with castelli. I am now down to 73kg and cant fit in most of them..hehe so recently i bought a entry level castelli shorts off zando for training and i must say they definitely seem a lot more comfortable the lighter you are. Etxeondo is also very good, I remember reading a review recently where it was voted in the top3 shorts for 2014/5
  16. Does anyone have a contact with pine kernels?
  17. Misinterpreted the route thought it was a dual loop of 47km, but what a waste to even go and ride
  18. No its a 47km loop so will be 94km in total
