DuncanCT

Thank you for the explanation.

Don’t think it matters as long as they are the same units? Hours or minutes or seconds.

Thanks, thats me. Maybe you can help me... this is my understanding of the seeding index: ((((myTime / winnersTime) – 1) / Beta) x 100) so... (((3.75/2.5)-1)/0.94)x100=53 (i see my error was /beta not *beta) I see i have a different winners time? Finish Time 2h 30m 40s?

I have received the 'updated' seeding email today with no change. If the beta for Tour de PPA was 0.94 (as MongooseMan stated, I haven't seen anywhere else) I would have gone from 54 to 47. Would that be enough to see a change in my seeding? I also entered Tour de PPA as a late entrance so wondering if it might have been missed due to that fact. (if my new seeding is enough of a change)

How long does it take normally for the PPA seeding site to be updated? Also anyone had their CTCT seeding updated from result from Tour de PPA?

I think a Vodacom prepaid sim needs to be inactive for 4 months before it’s deactivated. Data bundles last 30 days.

Signed. @Mamil not sure if this petiiton is linked to you or you're just reposting (and I know it might be impactful) but maybe remove the image of Calib out of respect.

Thanks for this. Did you contact Bydidam Resort before leaving a car there?

Any suggestions for the safest place to park a vehicle over night in Citrusdal?

Are we as South Africans so accepting of the state of law enforcement (lack of enforcement) that it's just easier to point fingers at other road users and hope for behavioural changes. There are hardly any consequences to any road users action. (bicycle, motorbike, car, bus, truck) As an example I saw a speed camera on Sunday morning coming down Suikerbossie into Hout Bay. And the traffic vehicle was "hidden" in Mount Rhodes Drive. Firstly, these camera do nothing for behaviour modification. If someone speeding drives past and doesn't see it, they continue driving as before. And I assume the cameras are worthless for motorbikes as they only get front number plates. And you're lucky if these fines ever get posted. So instead on deploying an officer to activity monitor the road, someone has decided to rather stick a camera up. I assume there isn't an entity putting pressure on local government to get these things right. Does anyone know how many 1m passing rule fines have been issued ever? How many fines for rides not riding single fine? When was the last time any one actually pulled over for speeding while speeding? This motorbike incident has been something waiting to happen. Nobody is going change if there are no consequence to their action. If anything surly it'll only get worse? I assume the Traffic Department is run by the Local Government? Where is Local Government?

@jeanke6 how many km's are you comfortable to ride in one session? If you make it up to the Tafelberg Road you can get to Newlands Forrest and Potentially Tokai but that is some propper distance.

Please share how you used Strava to find the bike?

Might be easier to modify a 142mm QR hub to a through axle? Don't think you'll be able to align both the freebody and rotor positioning with end cap modification.

Can anyone with legal knowledge confirm whether these guys will have their vehicle confiscated?

Maybe PPA can help implement. Snaptik_6979800565815479557_dsgautoescuela.mp4

Maybe contact Strava with a case number requesting evidence? Might be able to provide info of private or deleted?

https://bikehub.co.za/stolen-bikes/2398/trek-e-bike-rail-7-2021 Someone has asked for more details in the comments.

This is probably off topic and a whole other thread, but where is PPA in all of this. Not sure how many guys here pay subs but all they seem to do (slight sarcasm here, I'm sure there is lots else done) is hand out wider of the rider sticker once a year around CTCT time. Where do they engage with the cycling community? Don't think they are present here on the Hub? Do they interface with CoCT? PPA > About > "committed to promoting cycling and the interests of cyclists. Recreational cycling (on- and off-road), development through cycling, safe cycling and advocacy are among the PPA’s priorities." Surely there can be a little more pressure on their side to increase safety, both from a traffic and personal safety?

Would be interesting to hear who would forgo the weight penalty for longevity. I have bought for an ebike but at R1500 and depending on how many km's you can get out of it seems like a valid option for longer miles? For reference: Shimano LinkGlide CS-LS600-11 https://bike.shimano.com/en-EU/product/component/deore-xt-m8130.html

I've just got a bike license for recreational purposes. Interesting to hear the communities comments on the following: Honda CRF250/300L Kawasaki Versys-X Hero Xpulse 200 (sorry Hero not Xero)

It would be interesting to hear what others think of print vs video. Lot's of the other good news/info sites are built from video services and then blog/web pages as an additional service. Links to "free" video services. https://www.youtube.com/c/LanterneRougeCycling https://www.youtube.com/c/ChrisHornerCycling https://www.youtube.com/c/hardtailparty https://www.youtube.com/c/PeakTorque https://www.youtube.com/c/Hambini Not Video... https://www.bicyclerollingresistance.com/ <-- paid option so doesn't really count https://zerofrictioncycling.com.au/ https://www.procyclingstats.com/ Also find that a lot of these services are built without having to pedal the marketing info the the bike industry wants pushed.

My apologies. I've been trying to pretend I'm 100% so I could ride but I'm really not. Please have a safe ride for me.
