  1. Damm, that's never a pretty sight. Hope they are ok.
  2. I know he rode a Scott but cant remember if it was a Scale or Genius, and as far as I recall he did not wear a skate board helmet........Nope, definitely not a skate board helmet.
  3. Yes we were doing the marathon. He came past me round the 35km mark. I tried wheelsuck a bit but I just didn't have the legs at that stage to keep up.
  4. Who was the guy in full hub kit riding a Scott. He came flying past me. It looked like I was standing still, did not even have time (or breath) to greet him. He must have started in one of the batches after C because I did not see him in our start group.
  5. What goes up must come down
  6. Upload to Garmin Connect and select Elevation Correct and see if it makes a difference.
  7. Nice time! I'm 13min shy of sub 3h
  8. Anybody have an idea when or where we will get our Columbia shirts for finishing 5 races?
  9. I only measured 678m of climbing. You must only go up the hills once http://www.strava.com/activities/92689711
  10. Damm, I sound like a sponsored rider.
  11. Would like to thank the Advendurance team for a awesome series this year. It was my first Trailseeker series and I thoroughly engoyed each and every one of the race. Keeping the masses happy is quite a task and although there were complaints I think you guys hit the nail on the head on all the races. Would also like to thank all the other stakeholders like Bryton waterpoint. You guys are always friendly and helpful. Epic sports, well you guys were EPIC at each race. Always ready to offer assistance lubing the chain and throat. Pity you guys don't stock a spare set of legs, I sure needed them on Van Gaalens. USN for all the drinks supplied on the events To all the venues and landowners. Without your generosity we won't be able to enjoy the awesome trails. The rescue/medical teams: Thankfully I never needed your services but think you guys do a great job getting to those in need. And to all fellow riders that suffered with me on the ups and had a laugh on the technicals. You guys make it worth it to go ride. Also a big to all that I have not mentioned. Hope to see you all in 2014
  12. Free entry up for grabs! https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/67528-trailseeker-no-5-half-marathon-entry/
  13. Has anyone collected their numbers? Anything special in the goooooody bag? Socks, keyring, epo
  14. On my seeding email they say you can register on Sat between 5h45-9h00 But if you have not received your seeding info I would not leave it to race day to sort out.
  15. Come drive in Joburg. If I allow one car to push in front of me at the off-ramp and they do the same to a fellow road user and the trend continues then it will take me an extra 2 hours to get to work. I plan my trip and I know to get into the correct lane way before I get to the off-ramp but you unfortunately get people that cant/refuse to wait an extra 10min and demand to drive past the queue and push in front. Nope, I'm generally very considerate and tolerate a lot but some people beg to have a Hilux imprint on their car's arse. Ps. All was written tong in cheek. Trolling a bit
  16. If roadies drive to slow people complain. Now they keep up to traffic and people complain. Make up your minds ffs. As far as I remember cyclists are regarded as a vehicle on the road and now this guy embraces his right and gets shamed for it. and don't come with following distance because that's the normal following distance in Gauteng to make sure you don't allow for other cars to push in front of you. I'm gonna do this in my hub kit, want to see how many free pictures I can get of me on my bike
  17. Yes you get a T-shirt. But you have to finish all five so good luck. You can go and have a look on the Advendurance facebook page if you want to know what the shirt looks like.
  18. My seeding index is 39.27
  19. Jip also just got mine. C batch again for me in marathon.
  20. Entries are still open I think so they will have to wait for entries to close before they can seed everyone and send the mails out. Or will all the late entries start from the back , they deserve to for entering so late
  21. Think we will only receive them from tomorrow.
  22. Pleasure. Hope you get it sorted out.
  23. He has not been online for a while. Hope he has finished the 30km by now!
  24. Since you say that it happens more frequently it might also mean that your shoe is worn out and like Trek Fan said it could be that the cleat is pressing on some nerves or placing pressure on arteries and restricting blood flow.
  25. Is your shoe wide in the toe section or narrow? This can also cause your toes to cramp up.
