  1. Great event to test your single speed legs
  2. Exactly why i am not doing this event again
  3. Waterkloof ,klapperkop and groenkloof .Lots of steep and not so steep climbs
  4. I think if the running part of a triathlon was first and then the swimming there will be less problems .Firstly, less dangerous water crowding,warmup on the road as opposed to water is safer and if the athlete has a problem ,they can stop safely as opposed to drowning when they stop swimming .Starting an event with pumping adrenalin ,cold muscles and cold water with an anxiety induced tachycardia is just a bad idea
  5. The hub specials .Look and ye shall find
  6. now on 38x18 or 17 .Rather walk when I can,t ride than spin out
  7. Felt like a another magalies monster work over .The climbs were okay ,but the slippery terrain was relentless .My fall count is 2 .Skin only
  8. The same brands also differ in a model .Momsen carbon large is bigger than an alu large
  9. How hard do you hit a 6 foot putt ? Ride and you will figure it out youself
  10. Raceking back with nobbinick front .I had X- king in front previously Both are good ,but i was very happy with nobbynick in front during joberg2c .I wanted more traction and that is exactly what i got .There is always some compromize
  11. Oakpics are the best by far .They took the greatest pics at CPT 2012
  12. i have also just been invited .So we will have to have a breed,s neck climb duel for her attentions .Have you noticed she is from the cape ,but it is a uk e-mail addres
  13. Will buy the only good photo of myself in 2 years from actionphoto
  14. Hi tim .Can i change my ultra entry for a marathon entry on raceday registration and where do we pic up regisration
  15. i posted this request already long ago with no respons
  16. Sounds good .I love groenkloof .If only we can get a section of switchbacks to train on it will be perfect
  17. And you call yourself River Rat, because?
  18. What a load of BS .All of it !
  19. Like the man said .Anthem all the way .You don,t need all that lockout .Once setup correctly ,they are great bikes.I also went from merida matts 26 v braks to anthem 29 .Best move i ever made.You can build a pyga oneten for your 35k .Both these bike have excellent resale value also
  20. Bruce reyneke carries sixs stock .I also have some nike compression stuff that works realy well .Bought those from nike store in atterbury value mart .Sixs is the best ,but costly
  21. Eqestra Spring classic was the best one day event apart from the monster .
  22. Buy a Giant anthem instead .No expensive sevicing and good shocks all round .Alu models are only slightly heavier than carbon scott
  23. why service after 3 days riding .After joberg2c a wash ,new chain and lube . DIY clean and grease headset BB ,Hubs Round 2 !R450 for chain
