  1. You must read the following blog site for a great review on training for the Argus and riding the Argus. Very well written: http://www.cyclingcycology.com/category/blog/
  2. EGGZAKARY what my first thought was
  3. Also saw the guy sweeping (near the caves) and yelled out a thank you to him.
  4. Happy with a D seeding for the Trail
  5. I need to buy an iPod for my kids - do you think I can get a deal from Cycle Science?
  6. SASeeding of 39 and I am in C?
  7. What were you doing at somebody else's G-Spot?
  8. I found that using an MTB the first few times really helped. After I got the hang of it, I switched back to the road bike
  9. Take 2 tubes. Your best bet is to go to Cyclelab - I saw on the weekend that they are selling 29er tubes that have been vacuum packed so they take up very little space. Only problem with them is that they are not pre-slimed but thats not a train smash. Best advice I got was to pack your riding kit for each day in a large zip lock bag so you have 3 "packs". Makes it easy on the day to get ready.
  10. ?? Dont understand that. I only entered because Sani2C is the best MTB event on the planet!! Cannot wait
  11. Don't feel like trolling through the last 25 pages - has Cycle Science responded yet?
  12. Trail, Adventure or Race?
  13. 1. What is an awesome bush bridge? 2. How did you get those co-ordinates to work? I tried and google did not recognise them

    Argus 2014

    Been body slammed from C last year down to G this year
  15. Another trick that has worked occasionally for me is to wipe the entire tyre and rim with soapy water to help seat the tyre
  16. Go to youtube and look for the South African version that was put out by Bicycling magazine - also very funny
  17. How did he get the tyre back on with his teeth?? I struggle with 2 hands!
  18. Oh my hairy sack!! Up 2 groups from C to A. Last year I rode a 2:40 and this year with 5 weeks of flu I am nowhere near the same level as I was last year

    Berg and Bush 2013

    C batch - been off for 3 weeks with flu. Now crapping myself
  21. Same issue. Been off the bike for a week already. At least I have more time to recover as I am only racing Berg and Bush in October (but still need to train). I am on Zinnit antibiotic for pharyngitis which I think also treats Strep. SUCKS BIG TIME!!!!! Third antibiotic in a month
  22. Back wheel
  23. With all the glass in the cradle at the moment (no rain to wash it away) I must have picked up some fragments in my rear tyre. Result: A FLIPPING PUNCTURE WHILST RIDING ON THE IDT!!!! I guess the pressure on a constant spot must have pushed the glass fragment through and caused the flat. Damn annoying
  24. Number 10 for me this year (and 3rd time doing the MTB the week before)
