  1. The guys who won the adventure was on Rigids. dont think it was single speeds though
  2. Every race I have participated in they have told me that if I want to move down to a later batch I can do so, but I must remember that I will lose that time automatically. Common sense in my opinion. Why do they need to go through the hassle of seeding everyone if you are just going to pitch up whenever you want and start in a different batch...
  3. Ive had my bryton 40 for about a year now and not one single issue with it. The support is fantastic!!!
  4. I came in in 2h58. Pretty happy with that
  5. My seeding was also incorrect. Got an index of 46 and was seeded in G. Just politely asked them why that is, and they had a look and said: "Sorry our mistake, you should be in C". Easy as that Funny what a smile and good manners can get you.
  6. I thought I will try out the Avids when I bought my new bike. What a huge mistake. I am already planning to get some XT's on there ASAP, and that is after only 450KM on the Avids... I am massively disappointed in the Elixir 7's
  7. I would say the IDT, as you would be training on the setup you will ride when you go out as well...
  8. WJ hou op k@k vrae vra en ry jou bleddie fiets man!!! ????

  10. From the report on IOL it just seems like an accident. Taxi was turning right into a road with burry going the opposite direction. Driver said he did not see the cyclist. Burry hit the pasanger side of the taxi. http://www.iol.co.za/news/south-africa/kwazulu-natal/cyclist-s-wife-cradled-him-at-scene-1.1447719#.UObP7hMazCQ
  11. Nice touch guys. May Burry's legend live on!!!
  12. This is tragic!!! R.I.P Burry. Youll always be a legend!!!
  13. This is me: http://app.strava.com/athletes/1195247
  14. Ive tried everything. Uploading directly from Brytons site, exporting it to my PC and uploading to Strava. Nothing worked... Anyway it was just a chilled ride, so not to worried about it... I was trying out the gps tracks feature on my bryton for the first time, so it might have somehting to do with that. But still cant understand why all the readings will change from Brytons site to Strava...
  15. I flagged the ride and marked it as private so it does not show up in any of the KOM stats or anything. On Bryton's website everything is perfect. Distance, time, everything. As soon as I upload to strava something goes haywire.
  16. Thanks Rouxtjie!!!
  17. how do I find the group on Strava?
  18. I got some random readings on strava for my ride over the weekend. Recorded the ride with my Bryton GPS, but when uploaded to Strava the ride time is incorrect. On Brytons website its correct. I did flag the ride, as my average speed according to Strava was 58kmph through Northern Farms.
  19. I am 1.87m tall, and I was inbetween a Large and XLarge on my new TREK. Took the Large and its perfect. I think at your length a Large would be just fine!
  20. I also bought one from Chain Reaction a while back and its a very good place to start. I can do most of the work with the tools that came with it, and only needed to buy 1 or 2 extras on top op if. For that price it is a bargain
  21. if you search on it the products do come up, but ya its an epic fail. Almost look like it was still a work in progress and someone launched the new site...
  22. Does anybody know where I can get a longer skewer so that my new bike with a rear through axle can fit onto my Indoor Trainer? The standard skewer that came with the TacX trainer has an axle length of 160mm and the skewer on my Trek has an axle length of 200mm. Can anybody help me or give me ideas on how I can make this work?
  23. Looks good Jason. I think it will work much better this way, especially now that you dont have to connect to the Internet to download your rides...
  24. Ive already received my bday and xmas presents for the foreseeable future... http://www.cyclelab.com/Images/Products/1011.jpg
  25. If you are new to cycling also remember to budget for shoes, clothing, helmet etc... That can easily add R2-R3k to your total spend
