Thanks!

Much appreciated!

Thank you! How do I reach Waseem?

I made that name when I thought that's what I wanted, but then I tried that road bike and it felt amazing. So smooth and fast and comfy. Generally speaking though, anywhere I can make a start would be good

Thank you! This actually looks quite promising!!

Thank you! Any suggestions for road groups? Want to try all of the options!

Hi all, I have probably been watching this community (the cycling community as a whole in CPT) for a year now. I would love to become apart of it and make new friends. Can’t imagine a better hobby/lifestyle to pick up. I am tired of vicariously living through all of the super cool instagram posts. I don’t have a bike and when I went to a bike shop there was a bike for me, a liv avail (48), but it was so expensive. Where do I go to meet people, make friends, grow into this community? I am in the Southern Suburbs of Cape Town. Basically cycling utopia. How can I get into this without a bike? Where do you all meet up? Can I rent a bike and join a ride? Thank you!! - From a 27 year old wanting so desperately to go zoomies and make new friends x

Oh, great spot! I saw someone post on the mywhoosh subreddit that they are using a Magene MG70!

I don't own currently own a bike as I will be too busy to actually leave the house and go for a ride. Thanks for the app recommendation!

Hi, I want to make a spin bike setup with the added fun of using MyWhoosh (Zwift alternative). I don't want to pay a fortune for a smart bike. Ideally I want the spin bike to cost under R10k, and then my understanding is I will need bluetooth and a power meter. Anyone have any experience with this? If not, just some spin bike recommendations would be excellent! Thanks x

Well... I got on, and I thought to myself I've never felt something stick to the road like this before, and what came after was zoomies 🤣 so I think I'm on the right track

Yeah I tried the avail at the bike shop, it was pretty much perfect for me. So that's what I'm aiming for now!

Thank you, I know a little more now about what to look for so I save all of these as they pop up

I tried out a size 48 liv avail at the bike shop... it was sooo comfortable and suited me perfectly. They have it for around R13k, a new one. I think that's what I'm aiming for now! 😁

First things first... padded shorts!! I had a mountain bike for a very short time and boy.., those bruises were something else 😂
