  1. I've had the huawei 4i for the last 2 years that have been great, awesome noise cancellation as well. I see the 5i model is on sale for R1000 - https://consumer.huawei.com/za/headphones/freebuds5i/buy/
  2. Also had some heartbreak from @ group, 51 seconds short of a Sub 3. Was one of the better behaved groups that I can remember. Saw just the one guy go down hard after Smits at 60+km\h, watched him bounce and roll once he hit the deck. Had to come to a complete stop to avoid his bike that followed me to the left of the road. Hope he's okay!
  3. I've successfully done the substitution. I had an issue the first time, it wouldn't let me enter the details of the rider's place I was taking, just put me in for an international entry. Emailed them at info@cycletour.co.za and it was resolved the same day. "Thank you for your substitution, this is to confirm that we have received the consent letter from the person withdrawing and you are now entered into the 2024 Cape Town Cycle Tour. We will notify you of your start time in the week leading up to the Cape Town Cycle Tour Registration"
  4. Great race, well done team. My one request would be to have more bar staff on duty. The time in the queue to get a drink was close to my race time!
  5. Aren't FinishTime and RaceTec the same company?
  6. Very happy to see them DQ riders who were trying to jump up a group or two! I've often called out riders who shouldn't be in the group that I'm in, only to get an "It's fine, don't call the Marshal please" response. Spoiler - the Marshal was indeed called.
  7. When you reach the free article limit, just open the next article in incognito mode
  8. Great, thanks for the feedback, will give it a shot this weekend.
  9. Hi All Just checking if the above is still the case or if anyone has been allowed to cycle her recently. I'm staying just below the pass for the long weekend
  10. I was A group and it was chaos when we were caught by B. I just missed the riders who went down on the train tracks, hope they are okay! Looked like it was 3 or 4 with one being a pure savage rider. Chatted to mate afterwards and he said there were matts over the tracks on the right hand side of the road but not on the left where we crossed.
  11. I sold a helmet to a fellow hubber that I wasn't using anymore as I had one a new one. He contacted me and was pretty upset as it had some small cracks on the inside that I had never noticed. I refunded him in full + shipping, in the end I think he left a 5-star rating.
  12. No issues with my Garmin 235 & 530 with an A52, however my wife's Garmin 25 sometimes has issues with her A32
  13. I see the online entries for the Sportive #3 are closed, can you enter at the registration today and tomorrow?
  14. Some much needed new rubber and a few extras
  15. Thanks for the coupon - where did you get that from? + upfront 25% discount - is this still maxed out at R4000 or has it changed?
  16. For those that have done the substitution process. Does the original rider just need to release their entry on the CTCT entry portal and then provide a letter to the new rider who hands that in at the expo?
  17. Looks like they've done an awesome job with the bike, very impressive.
  18. Ciovita sample sale, can't say no to bibs at R500
  19. I got the cassette and pads from Evo bikes (great service) and the tape I brought in from Chain reaction cycles a few months ago (was about R600 in total)
  20. It hasn't been easy finding an 11 speed 11-28 cassette in 105 or ultegra. I was offered Dura-ace ones but that price is a joke.
  21. I rode with my dad last year, pulled him to his first sub 5 in ten attempts. Awesome experience and he bought a pic and framed a copy for each of us which will be a great pic to have on the wall. Between our 23 CTCTs, that's the only reason either of us ever saw to actually buy a picture from them.
