yeah, thanks, my feet (metatarsals) have taken a bit of a beating, so will take 2 days off to give them a break

So, I did my first trail run/walk this morning! felt great. feeling a bit "battered " but will hopefully not be too sore tomorrow.

hi i would like to know the difference between the shimano br - r561 brakes(came with bike) and the shimano 105's is it worth the money to replace my brakes with the 105's?

was thinking about that! saw somewhere that one should never stretch a "cold " muscle?

thanks guys will take it easy in the beginning to give the tendons etc a chance to adjust. admittedly i am not a great stretcher but will have to change this behaviour when running.

thanks for the input. i think I'm definitely going to give it a shot.

hi, thanks for the advice- you're right, need get the tendons etc used to the activity

yeah. am definitely over the 80kg,hence i am leaning towards trail as opposed to the road surface. dont do mountain biking though .

hi do you find that trail running benefits your cycling? looking to take it up.

Hi I recall reading a while ago that running ,in particular trail running is beneficial to cyclists. Can anybody shed some light on your experience.? I am looking to get into this during the wet weather season and also not too keen on road running due to the unforgiving road surface.

i know its been said before, i feel it's necessary to commend these guys for outstanding service... called no less than 3 bike shops in my area on Saturday to do a quick wheel true while i waited, and could not be accommodated, called them who said i should pop in then drove all the way to cwc which is way out of my way, they fixed it in no less than 10 minutes! then ordered some pedals from them yesterday only to get a call stating that my choice of pedal wasn't available - could they replace for one better at no extra cost! i mean really! to top it all ,free delivery for orders over R500, my order also arrived today! why would anybody want to go anywhere else?

forgot to mention, preference is new, and this goes for R11500, which is at my ceiling.

Hi any opinions on this bike? comes with full shimano 105 i am looking to purchase a bike with a decent alloy frame and component set up - is this a good choice?

hi you can get an axis ,( ar10c) full carbon with ultegra all round for R17 000, comes with mavic aksium wheels check out their website www.axisbikes.co.za apparently they've replaced raleigh in SA and are owned by Scott according to a bike shop I've been to lately. maybe somebody else on the hub will have more info.

aiming for anything under 4 hours - you?

Thanks for the feedback guys, just dont want to start too "hot" and pay for it later!

hi all i wanting some advice from the more experienced riders. i am starting in group U in this year's Argus , up from SS last year. what i would like to know is what can i expect from an intensity / pace point of view vs. last year's experience ? is the riding more structured as in groups etc? i have heard lots of stories , and admittedly getting a bit nervy at the prospect.

bump

meaning? how's the price?

hi guys anybody have experience with brand x? looking to purchase the above frame from crc for R2000 i am a heavy rider (100kg) so dont see benefit in a carbon frame. any opinions on this purchase?

thanks will give it a try

hi all i need some assistance in transferring training data from my polar training 5 program over to the polar personal trainer website. have just recently registered on discovery , so need to upload all my exercises for vitality.

anybody have any details on cyclist fatally knocked down in Firgrove today?

hi guys i am currently using polar with a speed sensors etc along with Endomondo on my training rides , i have however noticed that the average speed readings of the two always differ by about 2km/h (endomondo being slower ). now endomondo works on gps , so would its reading be more accurate ?

thanks for the assistance
