    Argus 2014

    Started in T, bunch was split from the word go but managed to stick with until Jubilee Square then a guy dropped his half frozen water bottle on his top tube it jumped my way and booof I ended up wiping out doing got some bruises and road rash both on myself and my bike but i'll be fine. After that it took me some time to get going again my calf pulled stiff as I got up to get out of the way, nevertheless completed in 3:51 riding mostly alone. I must say the small bunches worked well off the start, HOWEVER the bunch riding skills of many can do with great improvement as guys overtook on the left, slow riders were cycling to the extreme right of the road not giving a dam about faster riders passing. Smits got so chaotic and jammed pack everyone just decided to cruise and occupy the entire road leaving no space for the faster bunches to come through.
  10. I remember this like it was yesterday,even brought a tear to my eye just thinking about the good old days.. Back then it was alot less politics too. I bought "Mrs colonel" bike from "Mr Colonel" a raliegh RC8000..lol, then sold it to "Ghisallio" which was sold to another hubber (cant remember his name) only for me to hunt him down and buy it back again. is "Moonkyspoon" still on the forum ..
  11. I got the hub argus riders coming into ocean view but couldnt really have a chat as the roads where hectic nd had to keep my eyes focused and ears open. (Was riding a black Cervelo S3) maybe next year i can hook up.. PS: Who was the guy riding a blue look think it was a 695 with one deep section wheel...?
  12. all makes sense . i only know of the one kit hence my question. Thankx 90inch for clearing it up
  13. yebo yes, i started on the Hub in 2007, left the country and my recovery password was linked to my work PC hence i lost my username.. Could it still be retrieved..?
  14. What happened to the "Alfa Bodyworks riders"..? are they thrown out of the league as well..? from the footage its the Alfa Bodyworks rider that throws the punches not a MC2..!
  15. mostly okay stuff, the jockey wheels made shifting very bad on my DA setup.
  16. Dammit, I only read this now..!
  17. Some more detail of the route please, got butterflies in me tummy for this race dont know why. starting in J-Group hopefully it will be a leka ride worried about the 3 climbs at the end havent done visserhok in a while and did not have time to ride the route.
  18. afterall he is wearing pink shorts, think PINK...
  19. I remember that guy with the horse box as we started climbing OKW and he came up hooting like a mainiac, There was a white hilux D4D no too far behind him that rolled his windows down and started shouting @cyclist for not riding in the yellow lane. The fat bas**d is lucky we didnt catch him at the robot he would of gotten on his glory, cycle race or not i got no time for these kindof people and take offence to people like them..! Majority of CT drivers have a very low tolerance level and most of the time it takes just a little bit more patience and everyone will be happy.
  20. R1500 for Lance Jersey, maybe i'll win the Argus with it..
  21. i'll take the hansie one, he was my hero like lance also...
  22. Another site is "randombikes" I asked the guy for his banking details, when i recieved it i phoned a friend at the bank to run a check on his account, found out the guy only had R300odd in his account and was in the name of a different person.
  23. Bioderma SPF100 all you will ever need...
  24. Do you think it will be a wise idea to start a whatsapp group (no bantering allowed) for area specific cyclist, using my area as a example: Crawford,Gatesville,Surrey Estate & Penlyn since majority of us use the same roads to get in and out of the area from our training rides. Just an idea..
  25. @Waanie just a little careful when you coming off college into johnston by (habib international where velocit bakkies were), i constantly see laaties from the vlei lurkong around in the early mornings.
