SC Tallboy sizing is smaller than the Spez. As per Sharkie at your height the Large is definitely the way to go. BTW I will be looking to sell my Large Tallboy on the Hub after Easter weekend so keep an eye out
Race is a bit expensive, however today it was well marked, good marshalling and the organization was decent. Considering Lourensford is not usually rideable, I personally thought it was worth it.
There is no relation, the names are just coincidental. 360 Life is a Nedbank business specializing in life insurance that sponsors Kev and Dave. 36One is an Asset managment company that sponsors Christof and Burry.
The course is so manicured and well kept that unless it is raining heavily you don't need it. A drop of lube each day and you will be good to go. If you have an issue there are always a couple of bike shops set up each day at the end of the stage to work on your bike. Save your money for the bar!
If you go and ride at Ongegund or Oak Valley today, tomorrow or Wednesday you can right a whole lot of the Epic route all nicely marked out for a mere R30!
There are some Schwalbe Rocket Ron 29er Tires on sale at CWC for the phenomenal price of R250 each. I thought this was a good deal particularly with the free postage on orders of R500 or more
I just spoke to a Sangoma at the Cape Town station and the weather is all good for Sunday guys He told me he is going home to put on his Deep Sections and iron his Assos Chronosuit in anticipation of a wind free race.
Sorry to hear that Issy, hope you are ok. I must have came through there from Somerset West side around 06:20am in a group of 25-30 going out to Rooi Els. There have been so many attacks of late in the Helderberg basin that it just makes no sense to ride alone anymore.
