    Opportunists lurking all day long it seems. Busier roads don't seem to deter them.

    Cape Town Giants ride from Rygersdal Sports Complex. You should be able to reach them via FB.

    This. 👆 Get the correct contact details from Jannis. There are multiple groups supported by PPA so possible that the contact/whatsapp details may have changed. Keep in mind that some groups may also just be slow to restart after winter. Their "Intermediate" group has definitely been riding weekly ... perhaps you could even consider jumping in there.

    Apologies... once the first barrier is breached is what I meant. 😊
  5. Thomo
    Tubeless road tyres, from a puncture perspective, are only as good as the sealant inside ... but that's a different conversation/thread. 🙃
  6. Thomo
    So every event live except for the main attractions ... 🤦‍♂️
  7. Thomo
    Would be interesting to see how many times CL have been called out for this sort of thing over the years ...
  8. Thomo
    Then I don't know ... Been a while since I've used trainer tyres so perhaps they are just inferior and no longer give the same mileage as earlier versions.
  9. Thomo
    Tacx, Scwalbe and Continental are probably the most common/popular. All should have a longer lifespan than what you've experienced. Are you set up correctly.? Too much pressure on the tyre perhaps.?

    The issue I was having wasn't so much the traffic from behind, but when moving into the traffic lane to avoid runners and having an oncoming vehicle suddenly overtaking at high speed at the same time ... 🤬

    Yesterday was the first time I had concerns on the Llandadnou - Green Point stretch returning from Chappies. ☹ The number of speeding vehicles overtaking while walkers and runners were inevitably pushing cyclists out into the traffic lane was scary. Be safe out there peeps.
  12. Thomo
    Lots of opportunists out there ... take care everywhere if riding alone. I imagine it's less of an issue at any of the mentioned spots if in a group.
  13. Thomo
    Time for a dedicated thread.? 🤔 LOL
  14. Thomo
    Not on FB but suspect it's the Chapman's Peak incident I've seen going around other platforms.? I thought it was Argus that released the crazy but seems DC does an even better job. 🤦‍♂️
  15. Thomo
    You guys are not alone it your efforts, and often I wish more would take a stand. They don't know how satisfying it is ... 😊
  16. Thomo
    Thx. Will reach out to them.
  17. Thomo
    Straight to Omnico.? No need to go via LBS.?
  18. Thomo
    Trainers generally adjust to fit road and MTB. (should be able confirm online) May require optional thru axle adaptor if applicable. Also, a trainer specific tyre would be recommended.
  19. Thomo
    I have a floor pump with tubeless tank. Sometimes I get lucky, other times I'm using one of these too. 🙈 PS: road tubeless.
  20. Thomo
    Suspect most comments and successes relate to MTB tyres. From some of your other posts I'm thinking you're on road tubeless.? Same, but different ... LOL
  21. Thomo
    Anybody else in CTN (southern suburbs) having dstv reception issues.? Some channels without signal ... "may be due to bad weather". 🤷‍♂️
  22. Thomo
    Ladies race on the go ...
  23. Thomo
    Terrible first ride experience for both of you. Hoping he recovers quickly and that this doesn't turn him off cycling.
  24. Thomo
    Happy to report that they under promised and over delivered.! HRM is back - no need to guess how much I'm suffering on the IDT. 🤣
  25. Thomo
    This has been my go to but the Garmin is an older Ant+ only transponder. Needing a ble unit for indoor I went with the H9 hoping for similar hassle free strap performance.
