Active Monkey

Spoke to a colleague who is a roady and he mentioned som obvious facts why i feel unstable now. Bars are much much narrower Wheels are rock hard with no shock You sit in a mush more up and forward position I am positive i waited to long, should have started training on the road bike at least a month back.

Can reach both.. See the pics.

What is hoods and what is drops? Thought there is only one way of reaching brakes?

Did my 1st ride... Shirt one just to feel.. Still very unstable... And struggling with changing gears and braking. Feels as if brakes are almost out of reach?

Been doing the MTB for a while but just got a road bike... So what are the quick and dirty tips and tricks, do's and dont's? My 1st race with the road bike will be in 3 weeks the 94.7

Thats cool but the main reason in the effort and cost to switch tires each time... Plus this will go on the trainer during the rest of the year with my mtb ready to rumble!

No idea..... Its 2013

Well there it is. Cost me under 5 and will be my road race bike. Will still use my MTB as main one

Meh... Need them today and was hoping for a place close to sandton

Whats the best and cheapest place to get a set if eggbeaters in joburg?

Can i collect entry bag etc on race day?

No email... Who can i mail orbphn to get the seeding details?

My main disiple is MTB. I cimmute Do trails Do races monthly However here is my issue. When i do road races like 94.7 i swap to slicks on the mtb. So to save the effort every time and on buying new slime for my tubless.. Would i benefit from buying a road bike? Im looking at a 4999 scott speedster 60. Entry level and basic. Will my road race speeds and times improve?

Its up.... entered last night. But from my iphone or iPad it didnt work, Had to use a PC. doing my 1st Marathon 70.... most if done on MTB before was a 65.

i too got a very bad seeding, based only on my 1st 94.7 ( last year) When seeding came out spoke to the office and asked if any SAS or MTB events can be taken into account and the response was yes send the request. phoned last week to find out whats up and was told orry re seeding is closed. Cant see seeding on my MTB race details but see A5 then a nr.. on the Road race details its KK so ja 09:09 start time. Is it too late to enter for a charity bond?

What is your quick and dirty eating plan the week leading up to a big event. And what is your race day eating plan and race nutrition plan during the race. I have the Nissan trailseekr 70km, then the MTB 94.7 and then the road 94.7 comming up and want to make sure my intake, especialy leading up to race and during the race is right

Ja 45 And nice and flat. Fun ride. 514 m of climbing. Did 1:59:22

Im in for the 45km. Not sure what to expect. Any one have a profile

When will 2013 route profile be up?

So some say its hell and others its a breeze..

Can you give some more info? Technical? Out of 10 Total elivation climbing etc?

Any one have the profile and route of the 50k? Real distance and level of technical would also help

Jip route and profile please.... And will roads be closed? Saw a race on sunday around that area where cyclist had to dodge cars
