Looking forward to it 🍺

Maybe 😄 Imagine if someone opens their “lunchbox” when he is close by

Thank you for the thread, haven’t had the chance to say this for awhile on behalf of another Hubber Scotty…. Go LAnce those were the days né

Uhmmm who goes around smelling saddle or ass cream, bums and used cycling shorts.... 🤨 its how it works that counts A sweaty ass after cycling smells pretty *** with or without saddle cream #asyouwerestruestory *edit - Just out of curiosity I now went smelt my assos pre ride cream.... it smells typical swiss neutral not pleasant but not unpleasant

THIS Forget all the over analysis paralysis, it’s simple: Sepp got screwed by his team, prima donna, winegurd and JV DS. I hope JV make it right today and ride for Sepp, with a +/- 4 minute lead it should be easy.

Reminds me of duty calls….

Hello Prof, please don't confuse cocky with rude. No, and tbh I have no desire to. 20 yrs later, its not a judgement.... my wife says i cant remember what happened last week, which shows the kind of impression you made on me all that time ago.

Hello Oom

Jaaaaa and buycycles don’t have to have a license to ride on the road (in SA and waiting to be corrected) and in many motorists minds don’t belong on the road…. Therefore following this logic the speed limit doesn’t apply #sTruebru

Listen… it’s a Ford XR6, Brakpans favourite car

No wonder you have a gazillion bikehub posts and are chairman of the bikehub premier club, using all that time us mortals spend driving to hubhub 🤟 15 meters… that’s 100 meters shorter than my walk to the garage before I start my 43.5 km drive to work… 5 x week. Trying to organize a hybrid home office situation, but the company is not keen #livinginthedarkagestheyare Already on my second car since starting this job, but that’s another story 😳

My wife has done 2 while living in Switzerland. If you have a valid SA ID document and join a local SA running club it’s quite easy and cheap….even if you are resident overseas. She renewed here old club membership in SA and had an official South African cloth running number. If you register as a non SA citizen then you pay the international price $$$$$$$$$$ You can use any official sanctioned marathon as a qualifier (wifey used Zurich and Valencia), make sure you submit your finishing time and not your actual moving time (moving time at some international marafuns can be substantially longer and negatively affect your comrades starting position) I’d love to give it a go as well, sadly my feet won’t handle those kind of distances…. Struggling with them just to train for a 21k

Ahhhhh don’t we just love insurance companies…. Where there’s a way there’s a will Good luck in Nice, don’t forget the race report and photos

Terrible At least the weather will be decent, maybe some afternoon and evening thunderstorms. We are having a slight heatwave this week but up at that altitude it should be nice.

Please share what changes the fitter made

It’s the way they (uci) did it at the last minute, it smacks of a bit of boeta boeta I’ll scratch your back stuff. We know riders like vd poel and piddock are going to be unbeatable, if they didn’t request the rule change then the uci shoulda left it alone and then it would really have been an interesting race

“just came back”……. Jinna boeta its still early days. I’ve been trying to find a comfortable saddle since 1989, a few “professional” bike fits and a few online connections…. I still live in hope 🙏

If only there was stock of the “affordable” versions and Spaz dealers would offer trade ins on your “old” SL7

Can someone tell us what happened to Thug, cause of death?

Sorry to hear this, he was one of the original hub members

Some people including well educated ones have the people skills of a piranha and sometimes you just need to suck it up to benefit from their knowledge…. You don’t have to socialize with him. jeroen imo is a you describe him, talking from personal experience when he was still an elite level xco racer back in the 1990’s

I've been lead to believe they were created by Olivier Bernhard the former swiss duathlete and triathlete The shoes are extremely popular here in Switz, its almost like to live here you have to own a pair. Have never tried them...yet

Jaaaaa sure it does in a riders mind and on paper and in the lab But in reality I wonder.... Riders eat and drink stuff all day without having a poop (except Mr Dumoulin 😬) and pour water (hopefully) over themselves without worrying about the extra added weight. Damn can you imagine Pogacar / Vinegaard looses the TDF because they poured to much water on themselves... or did not stop for a poop I remember a time long ago last century when river racing kayaks / canoes where being made so light that they flexed while being carried on portages, they had to introduce a minimum weight for kayaks to prevent people from themselves...

It’s an air bubble, air has got in between the rubber ply’s of your tyre. Not sure what effect a pin prick would have, I wouldn’t take the chance to carry on riding with it… suppose it depends on what kind of riding you do

Agreed 100% But it’s early days, very happy for vino and it will be interesting to watch pog try work his way back
