Anyone done this one before ? Looking at perhaps the 130km, but might opt for the 80 and have more time and energy to spend with the wifey.

So you’ll be pulling!!

I’m lining up for this one, first event in a while.

Yes, same on Saturday!

Chanced the bridge this morning… Saw a few individuals whose body language looked suspicious as we were ascending the bridge coming from town side. At this point we stopped and as we also saw a cyclist walking from the same side but other side of road. We then witnessed an attempted grab on a lady ascending from the southern suburbs side, she was oblivious to the attempt! We then approached another larger group of cyclists that were congregating nearby due to a mechanical and we warned them and opted to take a detour back into town and through Woodstock, this was around 10:30. The brazenness is outrageous. We were definitely being watched and we ensured that we let them know that we were aware of that. Had we continued I am sure there would have been some form of confrontation.

Conti GP5000s are topclass. A notable cheaper option is also the Kenda Valkyries

LOL, in all honesty, the time goal 🥅 is a bit of a ridiculous Strava thing and is just something that I put up as a Strava goal, not really fussed about achieving it. But I know that I need a decent amount of quality training time which I generally get anyway.

For me to maintain my consistency Have a minimum goal of 7 hours a week / 364 hours a year, which I should be able to hit barring illness. Don’t do many junk miles as I do a lot of focused IDT sessions with longer ride on the weekend and a weekly MTB session as well. Ongoing FTP improvement is a constant focus as well And of course — dialing in the DIET/nutrition side of things.

Eish, still battling to understand how people are just rubbishing rim brakes! A solid Shimano dual pivot brakes just fine, better yet, a dual mount set will be even better .

Love riding here and the view never gets old for me .

Came through there today around 10:00, met up with some other riders at the waterfront, who were intent on going through town, but opted to ride with us , we went over the bridge though, one of them went down the N1. There was a metro police vehicle behind us though , not sure if this was just a coincidence

Thanks .

Just for clarity. Cyclists going under / as in to and from Tableview side?

In which hospital is the stone thrower?

what a joke - avoiding a public road!

So much for freedoms . We’re now being told to avoid public roads !!

This is fast approaching an escalation point. Only a matter of time before private action is taken against these vermin

As received on group

Anyone know anything about the cyclist down at the traffic lights descending Black Hill at Longbeach Mall, came past around 10:00 and saw EMS and bicycle on the ground.

Sorry to hear about this What time was this? i assume you too were coming from Tableview side? Have there been reports on issues for those coming from town via N1 going to the southern suburbs or vice versa? or is it just from the paarden eiland

I find it does not hold wax too well and therefore gets noisy rather quickly ba other chains

Unbelievable
