How about coordinating Event Dates @Pedal Power Association? At least locally...
This is the same date as the Boland 100miler, an event that "claimed" this date probably a year ago already.
Not wanting to play into @WaldoZ's popcorn-eating fetish, but how does a this year 3:20 CTCT lands one in the same group with a last year 5:30?!
You have a rep around here though @Jewbacca, so I'll be glued to your back-wheel until B catches us 😎.
Not to alarm anybody, but...
Road from Val de Vie, all the way to the right-turn to Dutoitskloof, is a big construction site (so much for the live in the rural quiet Winelands...) - what will this mean for Tour du Cap and Boland 100 miler?
Road was very busy this past Sunday, at the time these events typically roll through there...
"Problem" is you and John are commenting on an erroneous comment of power attributed to Jonas/Pogi.
It is ᵉw/kg not w/kg. Read all about it! - here:

😉
Ja... ja... You drive a hard deal!
I was about to post about that - it was far better specced though, and a newer model 😉.
OP, it is a good bike, if in good nick, but not vintage yet, so offer R3k and walk away if not accepted.
People (We) tend to forget that shops absorb, and absorb, and absorb, hoping that things will improve.
When they worsen, it is not only that worsening, plus the last 3 months' inflation, that need to be allowed for (in our thinking).
Not possible really (or worth your time), but I think you might see a different picture emerge if you monitor the price of an item over its life-time, at a shop?
100%.
The 2nd lap was given official status, because people were doing it already anyway, so they saw a way to make money of it. Now it will just be free again...
When last did you guys see "Fruit Sellers" there?
No matter what time of day, day of the week, I pass there: Nada.
(THe name will stick, like The Argus for CTCT!)
I'll leave these three statements, without further comment:
- I am 57 years old;
- I've been seeded in &;
- There are leagues (and leagues ) between me, @bleedToWinand @Jbr;
- (OK, a bonus one) My FTP is probably very low Z2 for them...
You forgot to mention Maroeshka's heroic break early on.
Watch the areal footage on @bleedToWin's Instagram story and you'll see the commissaire's vehicle had no influence whatsoever. https://www.instagram.com/stories/wilcostr/3035986842863808543/
