  1. Ive seen a coupl (man and lady) wearing a Diaken Gu tops do this often on marine dirve behind buses and trucks....she is blondish..... Idiots
  2. But I dont want to ride scottt.....its so gay.....besides I have unlimited sports passes...you dont.....wahahahahaha
  3. I can tell it does work. Most of my training is done on IDT and using Intervals. Within 6 months of starting to cycle and coming from a background of no sport I did one Double Century and did my first Argus in 3.40 I still train using intervals and see huge improvements each month,
  4. Why are there 3 home altitudes on the Rox 9.0 When setting up for altitude/Incline one has three values to enter in: 1) The home altitude i.e. where one lives or stays 2) The altitude of where one is riding. I assume at the start of the ride. Does one set this everytime one is starting a ride. 3) Or one can set the Barometric pressure reduced to sea level in lieu of 2 above. If one does take option 2 does one set option 3 to 0 or vice versa Where can one get a detailed information of the information required above....and no weather sites only provide information where there is a weather station.
  5. AM is guilty last year I emailed him and asked him about this....his words to me in email was he made a mistake and in hindsight it was wrong....that admittance of guilt. From what Ive seen of Cylcelab prices.....they went ahead anyway,.
  6. This is not the only incident. I was in T group and we were coming along Glencairn. I saw an old VW fox in one of the service roads waiting....No Marshall. I thought at the time I hope this guy doesnt come in. As we go past Simonstown Train station this Mother F comes along driving in amongst the cyclists....he goes past numeous marshalls and traffic police and no one stopped him. And no there were no offical markings on the car....he turned into one of the side roads in Simonstown by the town centre.

  9. I have a comapgnolo groupset with an 11-23 cassette and a XENON 9 gear rear derailler. I want to upgrade the cassette to a 25. Can this be done with the current components or will I have to replace some part or the entire groupset.
  10. It looks like my team has come to an end due to there being some underhand business by the leader which resulted in our entry not being paid.....which makes me available. Im not looking to race along....I am an okay rider. Looking for a team thats out there to have fun. By tomorrow morning I will know if my team is not going. Let me know
  11. I agree the starting etc was well organised....but the marshalling on the race was terrible. My general feeling was most of the marshalls just were not interested. I just spoke to a resident in Noordhoek, and she had the same comment. She thought the marshalls just were not interested.
  12. I would be interested to hear peoples views on the Cape Cobra...here are mine I thought this had to be the worst organised race that I have seen in my life of riding. Firstly, the route and distance only announced this last week. Then we pay more than usual and yet we didnt seem to get more value for money, not even a recognition that we did the race like we normally do. Then some of the marshalls, actually most (there very few who were good) were more interested in sitting on their asses or talking than directing cyclists. On the way down from red hill there was one marshall who was doing nothing, just standing and wathing. The group I was in shouted at him "which way" he just looked at us....so some turned left others went straight. Those that turned left then realised they were going the wrong way. I have heard of similar stories from other cyclists as well. On the turn into Black hill, two marshalls were laughing and chatting to each other while we tried to turn onto black hill with cars turning right....it was huge chaos.... Interested to hear other peoples view before I send an email to PPA
  13. Well as cherise is in and I think she is one of the best hotties on two wheels....as for the rest I dont care....Ill watch cherises legs any day. LOL
  14. Thanks for the advice on cleats.... I have the look cleats Keo sprints and how the hell do i not look down and know my cleats are in the right position.
  15. Having an issue with my cleats........ When starting a race or riding my cleat has flipped over and it is a mission to flip it over and get clipped in...... Sometimes with almost falling off the bike to try and get this right. Are there any tricks to this.
  16. Naas nice reply. Have the PPA thought of spot checks like is done on bike equipment for the Leagues..... Maybe one or two motorcycles roaming up and down and checking....... With cameras to take the offence. Rather some monitoring than none.
  17. Found this on the PPA site today CYCLING MARSHALS NEEDED: We are looking for cycling marshals to assist at funrides (riding in their seeded groups), primarily wrt the ?white line rule? and littering. In particular, we need cycling marshals with a seeding of A to L, who usually ride the longer routes. Contact the PPA office if you are keen.
  18. The problem with the argument that others dont obey the rules or cars dont obey the rules and therefore its okay if we do is that we have total break down of system......for lack of a better world. No competition is worth someones life even if you are elite or pro. They set the example for the young ones. Having said that I agree that PPA and metro police should make more effort in making it possible to race in a safe environment, but then we have to obey the rules, and if we dont like them we have three choices, dont cycle or see if we can change them or obey them..... But advocating breaking of rules is just not acceptable.
  19. More sensible suggestion than those of P
  20. Pantani YO are a cold hearted asshole
  21. How do people get to join in on your rides?
  22. I bought a new bike and used it for the first time at Simonvlei. By 40km my neck hurt,my lower back hurt and my shoulder blades ached..... Could this be to the bike setup
