    Giant still much better value currently - especially in the TT department - less money, Ultegra, all the accessories, an ISM saddle, plus carbon base bar and extensions... https://www.giant-bicycles.com/za/trinity-advanced-pro-2 vs https://feltbicycles.co.za/collections/triathlon-bikes/products/ia-advanced-rim-brake-105-2020

    Fair enough

    That would be super odd. Surely having a license with CSA should be valid?

    I've got my VA license for the first time, but not reflected on my registration info. Do I need to query this at reg?

    Give it a TRI

    I also used to struggle a LOT with gels. I have recently been them into my training rides and my system is now getting used to them. It can be expensive, but you can't expect your body to just adapt on race day to a new type of nutrition - especially if you are pushing your body at the same time

    Hi all. Just a word of warning - recently purchased an Orca 226 suit for the wife and myself. After my first race, my wife pointed out that while on the bike, the rear is completely see through. Shocking for a top end suit from reputable brand. I have tweeted and mailed them, but no response as yet. Happy tri'ing

    Not many lads keen to help up front in DL At least I got some solid work in the legs

    Anyone have a breakdown of start groups (order)?

    I have to say that I am blown away, as always by the service from CWC. You guys and girls are all legends. I know the effort you all put in yesterday and today. I want to thank you all personally, but this message will have to do! You always go above and beyond for your customers. Most people don't understand what you have all gone through over the past 48-72 hours. Immense effort!

    This is an important issue - the guy get's hit by a car or crashes due to someone else's fault and dies - that person has to deal with that trauma cause of this guys stupidity...
  20. AndrewF
    E for me. Happy with that!
  21. AndrewF
    Do you have contact details for this?
  22. AndrewF
    Thanks! That was prior to Ironman... I am now 5 kg heavier and probably 20 watts down - comeback time
  23. AndrewF
    It's R2180 for items costing R2100
  24. AndrewF
    Ok, so If she takes the invoice with to the post office, how the heck does she contest the charge? The PO are useless

    So my 2 cents: Total wattage is good to measure, but means nothing on it's own. The number that matters is your power to weight ratio. Take the wattage and divide by your weight. Read: Wattbike power to weight Last time I tested (20km TT) was at 385 watts and my weight was 76 kg. 385 / 78 = 5.06 watts/kg Now, say someone who weighs 105 kg tested the same, this would be their result. 385 / 105 = 3.66 watts/kg That's a big difference! So saying "I tested at 485 watts" doesn't mean much. Power to weight is the main number I care about when it comes to cycling. Scrumpy
