  1. Check out GP Lama on YouTube for his review of the Magene The Garmin unit is tried and tested, I never ride without mine
  2. Will make for long ride in the AM😳
  3. Cool No need to go near N1 coming from Rondebosch side
  4. I'm assuming that this is not the section from liesbeek down the cycle Lane Plan to use that route when I resume my commute into the CBD,
  5. You guys were flying! Sat with you guys for a bit but then dropped off. All the best with your DC effort, I'm sure you'll do well
  6. I am in group 4 but not good enough to race this event - especially since it's first - there will therefore be stops - albeit potentially quick ones.
  7. one would swear there are no water points? #racingsnakes
  8. I saw 1400m elevation gained for the long?
  9. Eish. Starting to get nervous for my first 😳
  10. sorry to hear about your incident, can you please share some more details?

  12. Namgear make a great bike wash by the way.
  13. Squirt is good as is smoove. Most lubes are and often your purchase is based on your cleaning regime and frequency. Don't apply and go ride, apply to a clean chain to the rollers - the Ryder lube device works well for this. Allow to dry before riding, so night before minimum I reckon but opinions may vary as will the product you use. Just stay away from the graphene snake oil stuff!
  14. Anyone have GPX file?
  15. I reckon I lined them up pretty much the same.
  16. Hi All Wanting some bike fit advice - I suspect I have found the root cause - just want some more eyes on the problem - in the event that I am wrong and need to visit a fitter. Some background... I fitted some new cleats very recently and stupidly over - torqued one bolt and managed to snap the cleat! This, I suspect is due to the wedge that I also have in place. I then (possibly stupidly again!) - loosened it a bit, then retightened it again. Completed a long ride the next day and experienced no issues. Did an event last week and at the end, was experiencing some pain just behind my knee - on the outside of my leg (almost like a ligament - not muscular) - this definitely out of the norm for me. Pain subsided by Sunday and was able to do a recovery spin on trainer without issue (with other shoes) on different bike I only use these shoes and bike when riding outside - no issues with other shoes on trainer (different bike - but I haven't changed anything on either bike in any event) I used the shoes again yesterday for the first time since last weekend and noted the same discomfort after about 5kms into the ride - I pushed through the discomfort until it became too painful to continue and had to bail on the ride. My question after all this is - do you reckon the drop in the cleat (where it cracked) is behind the issue? My thoughts are to replace and do a test ride to confirm - if this does not sort the issue - I will need to visit a fitment specialist to understand if something else is perhaps amiss. Pics attached for reference
  17. Used Ali recently. Both times received within a month. AGS is nice but you will pay hefty bill for larger, heavier items
  18. Thanks
  19. Anyone know how the race pics work? I see only a few pics on the website. Also when does one's seeding get updated post this event?
  20. My first. Need to improve seeding (paying the price for missing some events and some easier Cycle Tours I guess) - G group had very few groups to speak of and when they formed they didn't last too long Spent lots of time solo and working to bridge gaps to catch the next group ahead, this was repeated numerous times, the impact of this was felt in the latter stages though Overall sort of happy with my effort and result
  21. I recall the duties being 40% on clothing + VAT still to be considered as well
  22. Yes, it was posted a few pages 804432027_DurbieDash90k (2).gpxback
  23. would also like to know, was expecting comms by now.
  24. Thanks for reporting back. That is often lacking!
