2XU have good shorts - i have used these in the last two IM with the Specsaver vest. If you have a half decent TT saddle then the shorts should be fine. Do a couple of training rides in them

Long rides, train your body and mind that you will be in the saddle for a minimum of 7hrs.

[You can go under 13hrs - it's all in the run My goal is to go under 12 this year - 1h20 swim, 5h45 ride and 4hr30 run 12min for T1+T2 quote name='Metzet' timestamp='1334730028' post='1635287] What's everyone's personal goals for Sunday ?? (all factors going well on the day) Here's mine.. Swim : 1h30 T1 : 5min Bike : Sub 6hr T2 : 5min Run : 5h30 Total ~13h10 (sub 13hr would be great )

Last year was no differrent - the weather forecast changed 10 times before race day - it ended up to be a perfect day ! Let's be positive - hope and pray that the wind stays away.

what is the procedure with regards to selling a complete entry - do they allow this ?

On the ride i registered 1125m of Ascent over 92km, very tough out ride before you turn. Many cyclist's never made the cut off time

Merida Big Nine - full XT for R30k

the doping laws and bodies that manage them are an absolute joke, this guy gets banned because some guy testifies that he may have doped dating back to 2005 ? Lance is still appearing at hearings.......is he still the TDF champion if he is found guilty? Contador ? and list list goes on and on

in addtion to the cramp pills, eat some salted biltong, finely sliced. I eat the chews, biltong and mixed salted nuts along the cycle route.......this is more than enough. At the start of the run take a gel and another halfway. Stay hydrated.

Keep with the Cumulus 13 or if you want to try the Nimbus 13, i have run with both and they are great

He was killed on the bridge crossing, the road narrows from NO shoulder when you cross over - you always just pray that there is no car from behing when crossing over - you are normally doing speeds of 65 - 70km/h. The cars have NO patience on this road!

should be about +-R45/month each with an excess of 10% min R1000, full cover - whilst in use as well. You might get it cheaper as well

Nothing wrong with the 500, i bought the 900 for my wife, i liked the specs and fitted it with tubless tyres. she loves the bike and we yet to have a problem

TFS 900 should go for about R9500 full SLX with some XT, remote lock out front shock etc

Why not go for the TFS 900 D, better specs and not much difference in price ? - also just under the R10k price
