  1. Virtually immediately... But then, as @Frosty said, you might get (auto) audited, so it may be "retracted" shortly thereafter.
  2. "Problem" is you and John are commenting on an erroneous comment of power attributed to Jonas/Pogi. It is แต‰w/kg not w/kg. Read all about it! - here: https://lanternerouge.com/2023/02/07/watts-primer/ ๐Ÿ˜‰
  3. Pun intended? ๐Ÿ˜‡
  4. SNAP!
  5. Sela...
  6. That's about 5 seconds... /s IDT plus Youtube for me (Why pay for Zwift = there is always cycling content to catch up on, on Youtube.)
  7. "WFH" in the mornings - you can log in / be in the office, by 12:00!
  8. Ja... ja... You drive a hard deal! I was about to post about that - it was far better specced though, and a newer model ๐Ÿ˜‰. OP, it is a good bike, if in good nick, but not vintage yet, so offer R3k and walk away if not accepted.
  9. 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?
  10. Geez, you're not thin skinned - you have no skin...
  11. A cup is 48 tsp? Hence this is more like 4:1, whereas (updated) conventional wisdom calls for 1:1?
  12. Ashleigh will both waking up early to do a 79km "race" with 3 "climbs" She'll be riding with those ladies?
  13. 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...
  14. ๐Ÿ‘ Name all the lady winners of the Detour...
  15. Did you get a family deal when buying those 3 x bikes, plus 3 x head units, plus 3 x Smart trainers? /s

    [EVENT] Tour de PPA

    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!)
  17. 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...
  18. @bleedToWin... - 2nd step Western Cape Champs Vets A; - 3rd step yesterday for Vets A PE Herald. ... & yet only good enough for & group.
  19. 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/
  20. But it is not pink?
  21. IMO: The error in your, and @Skubarra's, thinking is best explained by a different example: We'll never be able to eradicate murder, no hard we try, so let us allow a free-for-aal regarding murdering each other. Sure, marshalling is difficult, and will not be 100% effective (not even close), but does that mean they should not even try? Marshal beter; Make it / promote it to be a matter of honour for a team to deliberately not draft (Everybody will agree it is not allowed to take a shortcut, and even stupid to do so - why go through the trouble of entering/pitching/riding and then short-change yourself? - but almost nobody has a problem with drafting other teams in a TTT? Edit: Sorry, I see you actually sort of agree ;-D
  22. A76 / SR44 / LR44 X 2 All of them will work.
  23. It should actually be a given, not just "nice", especially also since ...
  24. You completely missed the point... OTB: The teenage girls that used to peddle single roses at restaurants over week-ends also did it for "charity" (the blind?) - I am sure you always bought 10, to have a nice big bouquet for the missus - it is for charity after all?
