They wont care what anyone says...

got 3000 points for yesterdays vigorous 210mins ride...

I kakked off so bad on this event last year I promised myself i wont go back. Cycling through a plowed field was not fun. Enjoy guys!

exactly my thought and it only took 2mins including drinking coffee and riding at gspot with the new wheels.

So with discovery cancelling my vitlaity my gym membership's debit order went from R140 to R750...after spending an hour with the callcentre on the phone on friday they promised it will be activited on friday but will show on their website by today, guess what, its not there. So now i have to phone the quality trained staff again...

I think they dropped everyone to 300 just to keep the masses happy for now, lets wait 3 months and then only a small percentage will get their coffees. As far as i know if you only reach 300 or upload 6000 worth of points rides you will be raised with 50 a week. Atleast thats how it has been working up untill now.

They gave everyone 300, or it would seem that way. Me on the otherhand, i moved from discovery to my company's medical aid which is also discovery underwritten/administrated or something and they stuffed up my application and cancelled my vitality. And their callcenter is a joke. On my application form i wrote to move my vitality, i phoned in after i sent my application saying please move it, yesterday phoned them and said please move it, today its not moved. I phoned and the lady on the move tells me why didn't i ask them to move it...HAHAHAHA

already have the kakwatch for my wife so even if they do add these i can only get it in 20+- months. Unless they make it that you can take more than one "fitness" device.

I was reading users comments on their FB page, they actually recommended a user switch off his fitness device when they start with recovery so that his average heart rate does not drop too low. WTH?

I see they are deleting the posts where people are sharing the link. hahaha

Spoke to someone who is in the know, it looks like roughly 500m climbing, they start with the hills to separate the field. Keep in mind this is not from the actual start at lourensford, i think the first 5kms was a commute there.

Ek het al n 40km daar gedoen in die ou dae se spur challange...ons gaan soontoe ry en terug ook, goeie oefening vir die 50 miler, of ek gaan my vrou bel om my te kom haal na die tyd.

only saw this now, bought mine at 15h yesterday and then bought for a friend at 17h30 and paid R99 for both...any ideas on the route profile amount of climbing etc?

These bulls, are the real bulls with like 4 legs, blou bulle like they cannot play rugby so they are trying cycling or is it the bulls cycling team like in vollekanone?

i think you offended me, again i forgot to use comic sans for you...

probably easier to answer but the question is can anyone answer it without doubt.

mine was also sarcasm...sorry if i offended you.

have you been living under a rock, there is currently more banned local mtb riders than not yet banned local mtb riders...yes i choose the not-yet banned words, and no i dont have any evidence to support this. It just feels like everyone who has tried to make a name for themselves in the past couple of years are currently serving a ban.

The only thing i could add is, dont say its going to be 600m climbing and then it ends up almost double that. Us fatties (speaking for myself not the bike type) take that into account when entering an event and double the climb is a HUGE difference for me over 40km.

My old alma mater's race, maybe i should go great some of my old onnies...remind them of the "good" old days!

Yeah im kinda over it. I understand the whole issue with helderberg but not even an apology, but like i said im over it. Luckily for me i got an entry from a mate and actually didn't even pay for the event. Cost me a couple of beers though. I dont hold it against the series (well...) i will do grabouw and most likely hermanus again.

ok you lost me again...hahahha

See thats my whole gripe with the helderberg event, they only gave free entries to the 70km guys and not us that was supposed todo 40km and ended up with half of that. They never even admitted that there was a cockup on the other routes.
