I know this will be subjective but what would have been the idea bike for this? Gravel, HT or Full Sus?

Any opinion on this vs the Cederberg 100 Miler? Would like to attempt this distance but find the easiest one first. Cederberg is more elevation but the profile looks slightly better. Looks like you get a "free" ride from about 120km? Amarider looks like you climb from 80ish to 150ish. Seem like it would be more difficult.

Watched a guy walk into our shoot (3F) with a 6something number. Mashals are so busy making sure that we had our chips and boards they were not actually checking numbers. Think Big Wout managed that. Racetec provisionally seem to calculate your group start time to you actual finish time and ignores the split timing. His Racetec tracking show something much slower.

I've just upgraded my phone to Android 9/Pie. Now I can't connect via Bluetooth. Anyone else experienced the same?

Although an inconvenience of waisting my time I wasn't taking about the time since I've joined the que but from when i give them my chip until i get my race pack. I'm not the smartest cookie but do understand that there are more than one printer. At my estimate there are about 35 'lanes'. So assume that many printers. I'll check on my way out.

I'm been waiting almost 1.5 hours in the que. So might not be too sharp but please share the fatal flaws, it'll give me something to do.

I can't see this problem being fixed if you come tomorrow or Saturday. It's a slow process. I'll time exactly how long it takes to get my entry and then multiply that by 35k and see if there is enough time in the next 2 days.

This is going to be very painful. Apparently the servers went down, but back up now. Still super slow to get a number.

Watch from 25min or -12min. I think it's a really sustainable approach to dealing with the prospect of protests. edit: can't get the video to link to FB. Go to the CTCT facebook page and watch the video from today from the above times.

Putting together birch ply drawer boxes. 12mm front and back. 9mm side and bottom. Hopefully post pictures when it's completed.

Nice. What stock did you use. Is that birch or pine ply. What joinery method did you use?

Can't you make for prevision for a window and then once the land dispute has been resolved pop out the brickwork and you have your window back? Like this...

Maybe he was injecting his naartjies with booze for the after party.

Yup.

I made the jump and bought a F3. I have a metal strap that I'm probably not going to use and maybe looking to sell. Anyone interested?

Can anyone report back on any software problems they are having with the watch. Interested in getting on but all the problems are putting me off a bit. Garmin forums full of users with SW issues... https://forums.garmin.com/forumdisplay.php?492-fenix-3

Does this not fall under the PPA mandate of keeping cyclist safe? I can't imagine it would be too hard to put up CCTV cameras at certain places around Cape Point to at least track number plates.

Hi Jeroen, Any news on the Natural Citrus flavours? Are they available yet? Thanks Duncan

This is a ridiculous idea (I already know it) but what about booby trapping your bike? I'm not sure about the stats on mugging. Are they mostly ridden away or stuffed into a vehicle and driven off. Either way a big canister of teargas strapped to the frame with a timer delay. If you could activate as you handed over the bike, then 5 minute later it could activate making it really difficult to travel with?

Good for you... showing me your the bigger man. Was just trying to help you out. Clearly I was wasting my time.

Leading with this explanation would have been a good idea. Would have saved (edit) the confusion. Being a corporate representative you should be bigger than name calling. If your going to get sucked into stuff like this on the Hub your doing your brand a massive disservice.

It's a Large. Can't find any geo on the bike archive on the Spez site.

Looking for a Mavic Open Pro Silver 28h. Don't think the agents have stock. Is there anywhere locally that have them? Thanks
