Spindy, First of all, welcome the the hub, hope you will enjoy your stay here. It's been a year since I've joined the hub and lately my biggest problem is to fit in all the rides and to choose what to do on a Saturday morning - road or mtb, eish - some much cycling to do , so little time .... IMO: Join a club or training group - as mentioned before. If you can't join some peeps in the mornings/afternoons - spinning is great to get the legs going and keep 'em going. Don't over do it. Then over weekends try and do some longer rides. Doing some races - road or mtb - is also good. Start with the short distances - now worries. Doing longer distances will come in time. Also as said before : do not under-estimate the value of a good bike set up - road and mtb. And maybe check if the bike you already have is the correct size. And if not already - invest in a good lady specfic saddle(s) (you are a lady - if I read correctly ). Good cycling shorts a must. Join hub rides if organised - getting to know some of these crazy people would prove a lot of fun. And that is what you should have at the end of the day : FUN. The rest will come in due course. Good luck.

oh yes, and thank you to the rudi projects guy for letting us try out some of those awesome glasses. can definately recommend those. very light and also depending on the light goes from clear to very dark. Nice!! and to the orginisers - a big thank you to you too.

i went i saw i came home conquered..... eina...

sammajoor, ek dink jy sou dit baie geniet het. en ek kon skaars glo dit net hier in goeie ou Pta. maar ek verstaan dat van die roete op privaat grond was, so geen toegang andersins. nietemin, ek het dit baie geniet, en met so baie races wat elders aan die gang was , het baie mtbers opgedaag vir die een.

Reg so , oom.

meneer , as jy da was sou jy ok so gelyk het... ek lyk actually nog oraait, jy moes van die ander ouens gesien het .... ek meen kyk nou mar hoe lyk d r.

no, not breaking anything. oxwagen giving me getting a lesson in how to fix my mtb. i don't want to run to the lbs for every little ajustment. . .

got the t-shirt, got a shiner , had some fun! just the cold weather caught me off guard a little ... and just maybe my technical skills are improving. no complaints from me.

oh NO!!! ......and what's up with the chain???

lost in translation ...... julle Afrikaans is . is glad nie wat ek ges? het nie. s Zoo Cookie2008-09-12 12:38:38

Ouch. Zoo, you better be nice, you will be riding in his territory on the 28th Ok, sorry for being distant all, but I have had and still do have some virus or something on this PC of mine. It's a lot better now, but I think the malware software deleted some of my windows files. Everything works fine till the computer needs to re-boot, then all it does is re-boot at the login stage.Over and over. The addres is 889 Golden drive, Benoni. Once you are on Golden drive, the road will bend to the right and then a little further to the left. At this bend, you will see a road to your right and the entrance is just after that road, on your left. The company is called PMD Transport and it has a big red gate. If the gate is open, you will see a **** load of red trucks. Miguel said that if they are working, it will be better to park in the open space, opposite the entrance and there is a security gaurd. If they are not busy, we can park inside. He is just scared a truck takes out one of our cars. If there aren't too many cars, we can park inside irrespectively. ek bang holy, niks.

i'm also riding to the start. and somehow I missed where it says where to collect my number. sooooo it's going to be a early morning for me..... riding there, stand in line to collect number + goodiebag - that i hope I can leave with some friendly people till after ther race. eish...

Yup there have been reports on 94.7 of the same thing happening in Jhb as well. skelms!!!!
