  1. I have a similar issue: I'm using a mini PC that has a surge protector built into the power supply. On most occasions when I increase the speed of the fan, the PC 'shuts off' for a couple seconds. I think it is the surge protector kicking in. Fortunately, this doesn't affect the Zwift session or connectivity overall - I just loose picture on the monitor for a second or two. I suspect the same is happening to you - but with slightly different symptoms. Try running the fan from a different wall socket to you PC/laptop to see if that helps.
  2. Sounds like a trainer / ANT issue - not Zwift it self. As mentioned in the posts above try the following: 1: Plug ANT stick direct into laptop. 2: Make sure laptop plug into power and make sure the laptop does not have any power save modes enabled. 3: Don't use your phone/ipad etc to connect to the trainer/ zwift via bluetooth while running the tests. If you do all of this and still have issues then try download a trial version of BKOOL or any other trainer software and run the same tests. If the problem persists there is an issue with the trainer or ANT stick. In this case, try borrow a stick from a friend to identify if it is the stick or trainer. If the problem doesn't persist with different software, the problem is Zwift (unlikely). Remove and re-install.
  3. My money is on Netflix - or one of the other streaming services...
  4. You could try Dennis at Sportsworld - http://www.sportsworld.co.za/contact-us Not sure if they have stock, but Dennis is always good for advice... Cheers
  5. Hey Slowbee Check out DCRainmaker for a comprehensive summary of trainer apps out there, what they can and can't do and all the rest. https://www.dcrainmaker.com/2016/11/trainer-apps-guide.html By the sounds of things, your (her) requirements are pretty standard. Like said previously, you may be able to get away with the standard app that comes with your trainer (e.g. Tacx App) at no extra cost... G

  7. Apparently in Italy - Dolomite's... https://za.pinterest.com/pin/297026537908603469/
  8. What they go for now - around $600? You could probably ask for half that - so, depending on the exchange rate between R4 and R5k? Any more than that you can start picking up name brand frames for the same money. I'm not saying the name brands are better - just that given a choice between a blank and a name brand at similar prices, most normally go for the name brand... My 2 c...
  9. cool. We expect a full review once you up and running!
  10. That post is fro 2008 or something - a loooong time ago... ;-) The website probably doesn't exist anymore
  11. Looking forward to it! Been a crazy couple of months in the lead up to it so I've barely had time to think about it. Now it's almost upon us, nothing more can be done. Bring it on! ;-)
  12. I think you can do a free 30 day trial of strava premium? Will be enough to see you past race day...
  13. Good Ride today in B. Good bike marshals, group fairly well behaved, organisation as good as it could be. As usual, lots of support at the end. Massage tables was a nice touch (not sure if they were free?) Well done to everyone involved!
  14. http://www.sportsworld.co.za/category.php?id_category=447 There is a group ride pretty much each day of the week. The web page show the 'official' rides but there are also a bunch of others for guys and gals that can't make those times. Probably easier to join the Whatsapp group - then you will get daily updates of what rides are going on. If you want to be added just PM me your cell number...#
  15. Have you tried Cycle Teknix. I think they have a tour package (rental for a week or something like that) for R3750. At least you get to do a bit of riding before and after. Also includes helmet and spares... They may also have just a weekend package which may be cheaper... http://www.bicyclehire.co.za/ http://www.cycleteknix.co.za/bike_rentals.php
  16. Anyone got any pending orders? I need a new Thru Bolt. If anyone has is about to place an order I might just get a couple for spare... Thanks
  17. Any bike ride that ends with one of these in hand is a good bike ride :-)
  18. Which LBS? I know Sauser swears by these - and he should know what he is talking about. Interesting to note that he has developed his own sealant - he doesn't just use the generic Stans et al... http://christophsauser.com/featured-product/tire-sealant-nozisch-and-dynaplug/
  19. Anyone got a decent route map for the prologue? I've seen the map on the Epic site but it's not very clear. Are they going up the tar for malans? How they crossing over into Hoogekraal etc Trying to plan my vantage points for some photography.
  20. Yep - I use Rii remotes/keyboards with my various kodi/xbmc setups. No problems.
  21. If this is his webpage go here and complain: http://www.webstarts.com/abuse They will soon suspend his page until he contacts them to clarify....
  22. This is not an add - it's a forum post...
  23. Top shot Mads!
