Never been able to understand how bad things must be to reach a point of no return like suicide. Such a finality about it. Very sad for family and friends. RIP Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

gravel section was 1.8km... Awesome pics Ronelle - thanks!

servers is up again...loved the interview!

Add The Pirate - Im in cape Town and he is in Gauteng and had no issues whatsoever...in fact received goods within 2 days via courier.

thanks mrm - will try the pedal cleaning option and see how it goes.... mudda... no its a titanium frame but will check it too...

ok thanks guys....i see a busy afternoon ahead!

Recently my Litespeed Ghisallo has started to make some wierd creaking noises when I ride it. I have FSA SL cranks and KEO pedals and Ksyrium SL wheels on the frame. The creaking used to only happen when standing and climbing or sprinting, but has now starting making a similar clicking noise when applying pressure on my right pedal in the downstroke. I have had the torque checked on the BB and chainring nuts and the pedals, so everything is secured tightly.... Any ideas?

Awesome pics Ronelle- again!

Jeez! That looks like a serious hill! Starting to quiver for Masters Champs end of May! I'm gonna have to train on The Glen for the next 12 weeks!

Nah...Kimi would have been at the finish already sipping Champers

sprints - i mean

always found this be a huge problem too! i have always warmed up by riding to the start (12km) but by the time i set off i have cooled down totally...try to stretch in the starting pen but even that's difficult once the pen starts to fill up with riders!! the first 10ks inevitably hurts as the bunch prints off...

Strange...if igo to the Actionography wensite all i see is last year's road events :-(

Superb! Thoroughly enjoyed it! Thanks carlo

Exactly Fatcyclist! Besides paint adds extra weight to the bike!!!

that commentary was awesome...kept me on the edge of my seat until the last post! Thanks DavidB - will you do the same for the rest of the stages or are we pushing our luck???

Thanks Boyee - I will give a try!

anyone live in George or Knysna? I will be in Knysna on Monday, Tues and Wednesday and in George on Thursday.

I will be travelling to Knysna and George this Sunday to watch my son play in his first cricket tour. He is only 9 but has been invited to play with the U11's at this festival that lasts until Friday. I am taking my road bike with and hope to do some quality distance riding while I am down there. Unfortunately I dont know the area and dont have any friends there either. Anyone know if there are any cycling clubs down there or is there anyone who is willing to let me tag along on their training rides from Monday to Thursday next week?

A campag chain should never be broken (i.e. removed from the bike) - i use the ParkTool chain cleaner with some KleenGreen, wash the chain with some water, dry it with a towel and then lube it with wax lubricant. I use this procedure about once a week or every two weeks depending on how often I ride (usually 4-5 rides per week). Works like a charm.

lots of miles/kilometres?

Chris Willemse Cycles in Tygervalley also stock SIDI shoes - bought a pair of Genius 5.5 HiTech Carbon at a very good price and am extremely happy with them so far.
