  1. Cavendish too ... 🙊
  2. So he's saying no for now. But I suspect that when he has 2 and the 3rd is in reasonably easy reach ... 😊
  3. +1 Good prices and turnaround. Pity about Sram and possibly other restricted items.
  4. Constantia Nek is a nightmare once traffic picks up, particularly from Hout Bay side. Headed out north (Durbanville) for the first time in a long time, and where that was normally quite chilled with understanding drivers, I can't say that that was the case this morning. ☹
  5. When will people learn to look before flinging their doors open. Probably late for a lunchtime date. 🤬
  6. The shop itself generally gets rated well. But it seems they haven't quite managed to get the physical and online balance right.
  7. I was always one to ride from home, but I too have been driving to the group meeting point instead because of incidents in and around the area. ☹ We do what we must to try and stay safe. 🙏
  8. I was keen to ride this morning and then all of this ... so I guess it's a little IDT session this morning. ☹
  9. On the back of this which I saw on a whatsapp group ... 😡
  10. Doors are flung open.! It happens so quickly, most times you won't have any time to react never mind consider what your best option is. Having experienced the consequences of being sideswiped I almost want to say turn in toward the car/door but staying as wide from those parked cars as you currently do is probably the best you can do.
  11. Agreed, having been a victim of similar driver action. Reminded how fortunate I am to still be here. RIP young man. 🙏
  12. These "behind the scenes" shows (Unchained, Chasing the Sun, Drive to Survive etc) are really growing in popularity ... great insights and in some cases even more entertaining than the actual event.
  13. Any opinions where shorts don't go transparent but leg grippers seem to lose their grip prematurely.? 🤷‍♂️
  14. Has the UCI changed its position on this.? I see Pog is back in the shades of pink skinsuit. Maybe they won't disqualify him but rather issue a time penalty to keep some interest in the race. 🙃
  15. https://forum.bikehub.co.za/topic/195976-temu-for-cycling-goods/#comment-3956997
  16. I've had that velcro strap securing the bag to the seatpost rip up some shorts too.! A smaller bag with a saddle bracket perhaps if the suggestions of pockets only and/or spares bottle doesn't work for you.
  17. Layering ...

  19. When chainraings and front wheels were similarly sized.! 🙈
  20. Family took over the public holiday morning unfortunately. How about an encore on Saturday.? 😊
  21. Thomo

    Tire size

    Not quite the 19/20mm suggested but it should still be fine ...
  22. Could win it with one big effort and then just manage it to the end. But that's not how he races .. 🤣
  23. Agree with all of the above but will also add that sometimes "low ball offers" may be an indication of what the item is actually worth.
