    Have used mine during winter and now with the very hot weather in Gauteng i can ride alp dheuz on my cool balcony and listen to music at the same time .Rode a 2hour french col on kinomap between 8 and 10pm last night .I find it great to train hard using the powermeter to keep wattage constant .I use an ipad and a Galaxy 5 with wahoo fitness and kinomap

    I think there are more touring ladies than racing ones .My wife and daughter did a bike tour in France where they rode 70km a day and enjoyed every minute .The only hiccup was a frenchie bike shop owner that refused to help them with their bike setup ,because he was jealous of the organizer

    It is called Route 62 or 66 i think ,coming up in October

    If your weight is close to 100kg like me ,my rear tyre suggestions are Vitorrio saguaro ,Maxixis cross-mark ,Rubena Epic ? I am using these on my current mtb,s Coninental protection X king also works well if you are a weight weenie

    I see them issues also !

    I have 120mm travel fork with lockout .I use it to ride everywhere .Really bad terrain sometimes and do races with it .I had a rigid carbon bought and ready but sold it before putting it on the bike .I would rather find another way of reducing weight if you have to .It works for some but I found it would restrict my riding to much ..If you are planning to spend more than 2 hours on a SS ,my advice would be a steel frame with good fork and lockout and proper wheelset

    The first climb has been tamed a lot .Used to be rutted singletract or jeep tract .The descent after was a walking trail .The satelite climb was also left out this year .?

    Has to be the Kremetart .Roadies are always squabbling about such stuff

    I don't know how anybody can bend a spd pedal .I weigh a 100 kg and have xt ,s on a SS .If I can't bend them I don't think anybody can .Maybe the lower range are made out of softer steel ???

    I have 5 pairs on 5 bikes .Road , mtb ,SS .No problems ever .I keep a cleat screw in my shoe as a spare .Take a stud out and replace with a screw

    I like riding my racing hard tail,.A smoother ride over the rough terrain would make it the ultimate in efficiency ,weight and responsiveness .i also ride a steel hard tail and the extra comfort compared to a racing carbon frame is noticeable .I would love to try this out

    No NO NO ! A thousand times NO!

    The new Mark knofler album Tracker is really good !

    If your frame can handle a wider tyre ,go for it

    Maybe Steyn tried to bowl a yorker and it came out higher than what he had tried to do .If Elliot swiped and missed how different all would have been today .Sometimes you need a bit of luck to!

    Because of the rain interruption we could not follow our plan for a big total that we knew we needed ,so we had to adapt to our detriment .NZ was always going to be the favorite at home and with such a small outfield and an attainable total .Our plan was to post the biggest total and defend .I think we played better than them .Rub of the Green !!!

    I will try and fasten it slightly tighter on my wrist .If you shake it ,it does not happen ,but quick tap activates a new lap .

    arendoog replied to SwissVan's topic in New Gear

    Just starting to use mine .So far impressed with software and the relive video is a great feature .What I don,t like is the tap sensitivity to start a lap .My last 90 minute ride I did over 60 laps .Every time the watch bounces while going down singletract it starts a new lap
