Hi Fellow Hubbers I am not sure if this has been covered but help will be appreciated. I have been trying different options supplements for the cape epic this year and I know that time is running out to test as I need to get used to my choice? I was on USN Epic Pro the last few months but bonked twice and really hard (my liggies was uit dat ek hoendervleise kry). I am thinking Cadence Marathon for the start and second bottle and then Cadence Carbo Fuel What are you using that works for you?

There we go @Jewbacca Entry is fully paid so time to start training. Supporting you all the way buddy!!

Its open and beautiful 🤩

That was mine 🤩.

Hi 117. Did you manage to find anything? If not, I can scratch in my parts bin. You can send me a dm.

Hi. We had turn around this weekend because the my started working again.

Morning. My bikes are with naked insurance underwritten by Hollard. Only had good service from them and their app is so easy to use. Good luck finding the right one for you.

Hi. Are you still going strong on LCHF cycling? If so what electrolytes are you using?

Hi. Please do these ones. https://www.cwcycles.co.za/product/shimano-pdm-520-pedals or https://www.cwcycles.co.za/product/shimano-pdm-540-pedals Thank you.

I am in for 2020. Lost some weight 2017 to 2018. Properly fell off the wagon 2019.

Hi Hubland I hope someone can help me. I want to cycle from Langebaan to Vredendal. I see that there is a service road that runs along the railway and some roads close to the sea. So here are my questions: 1) May we cycle on the service road and may my wife follow me with a vehicle? 2) Are they suitable for a vehicle with a off road caravan? 3) Are those roads safe to cycle there? 4) Anyone who wants to join me ????. All info will be appreciated. Regards

Hi Hubbers. I dont know if this has been asked or discussed before but help would be appreciated. I see on a thule website that the freeride is not carbon compatible. Does that mean it will damage my bottom tube if I load and clamp it? Are any of you using the freeride on a carbon frame?

Thanx for your reply. Thats to bad. Do you get Shimano original oval that can be used with the crank or only after market ones?

Thanx for the reply Is there any way that I can keep the blings? The crank just does not look nice without them? Do you get a shimano xtr oval?

Hi Hubbers I have 2 questions I hope someone can help me with. 1: If I want to run an oval chainring, do I have to take off those 4 crank adaptors (aka bling things) where the chainrings bolts on? 2: If those adaptors are scratched where can one buy new ones? Any input will be appreciated.

Pieter jou legend!!!!! Hier in ons agterplaas is ons bederf met wereldklas single track. Baie braaf gaan ons die Wild Boar roete breek, maar toe breek hy ons. Ons is met die Warthog huis toe. Daai klim van Welvanpas tot by Golden Mile is rof, maar so rewarding!

Great. My parents stay in Klein-brak so that will be perfect. What road do I take from there?

Its my first time planning something like this, but I can just imagine the pure pleasure of riding my bike for a few days exploring the roads less travelled. Kind regards Stephan

Hi Carrado Do you perhaps have a file for that route? Where did you sleep over?

Paddaman do you perhaps have a gxp file or something I can check out. How did you plan around accommodation?

Hi guys. Thank you for all the messages and option. I was away for a while, but are ready to start planning.

Hi Hubbers I've been thinking about doing a mtb tour/ DIY Stage Race for a while now and want to give it a go. I love the thought of riding my bike 3 days in a row, but the price of stage races are really just too much for me. We are planning a 3 day maybe 4 day mtb tour / DIY Stage Race this June/July holiday. We will have a vehicle following so we do not have to carry all the necessary items on our bikes. The plan is to cycle to a overnight place, braai, have a beer(or 2) and start the next day again on our bikes and see as many nice things as possible. The thing is that I want to avoid tar roads as far as possible and ride as many gravel passes / natures beauties as possible. I do not know the roads there that is why I am writing and asking for any assistance. The places that I really want to visit or things I want to do: Cycle Montagu PassCycle Swartberg Pass I would love to visit "Die hel" but it seems that there is no way out, so maybe thinking of ending it there.Visit any other passes / nice gravel roads / mtb trails in that areaWe would love to cycle from George and finish at the hell after the 3/4 days without having to load our bikes on the bakkie. I have a gps on my bike to upload or download maps after the trip to share with hubbers thinking of doing the same thing. Any help would be appreciated. Regards

That was mountain biking in its purest form. I will def do it again!!!

HI Guys. Just an update on our LCHF journey. I have lost 8.2kg already and I feel great and it feels like I have tons of energy. It was a month on the 19/08. My wife has lost 5kg. We keep the carbs to a minimum and strive on the fats. I had a 1,5hour serious bike ride today with lots of climbing and I felt great. Thanks again for all the help!

Thanks for the info Dale. I will def try fasting but I will only do that as you said in the first post, after about 2 months. I will drop dead if I try it now! I used to struggle going without food for few hours. Fasting for 6 days is hard core!
