So 3 pairs for R360 including postage? And what type of postal service do you use?

Very nice socks. What size would I be if I'm a European 44 shoe size? (9 1/2 UK)

What's the consensus on the Specialized TT2 helmet? Good? Compared to Bell/ Giro?

Gorgeous wheels...

Gotta admit, that hacks me off as well. It seems all online shops are in the habit of doing that, including CRC.

Is it really worth getting a TT helmet, i.e. does it make that much of a difference?

I think its damn pretty. Wonder if the production paintwork will look similar to this. The plain paintwork, IMHO, looks fantastic. I just wish Shimano would get with the programme and make their 2x10 XTR groupsets available with a pressfit BB30 crankset. I'm not a huge XX fan and would much rather have XTR, which isn't an option on the complete spec Cannondale and Spez bikes.

Naaaaaaaiiiiice. May she bring you many happy miles followed by many litres of beer. What's she weigh?

mark, this is a nice write-up, thanks, but I'll only really believe it once you let me take that Air9 for a spin myself

They look like the Green Cross version of cycling shoes...

Have to agree, those are just friggin' hideous.

Have used Suunto and Polar, and much prefer the former. Suunto's look better, are smaller and work reliably and well. Have also had good after sales service from them.

Am only complaining because its likely to go straight into the pocket of some government fat-cat...

2.5l turbodiesel. Its a great car, can fit three bikes, lots of dive gear, two adults and even two small humans quite comfortably! R2k - OUCH!

How's this for a ripoff, R100 for a non-returnable photo of my bike, and I have to go to the municipality to pay it Clearly I was in a hurry to get a beer after the triathlon at the vaal...

I didn't think that anyone actually still watched Supercyling. As much as I love the sport, I find the programme utterly useless... Would rather spend the hour reading ProCycling on my iPad.

R35k just seems insanely expensive to me... Got to give Kevin Vermaak credit for building a good business and brand!

My thoughts exactly. I think there is that John Deere race through Suikerbosrand.

Here's the link

Anyone doing the one at Waterlake this weekend? The MTB course seems a bit short for the drive to Pretoria!

Small world - yup, I was moaning about the fact that I thought the main event started at 8am and not 8:50am, could have got some extra sleep on the morning!

Yebo, that was me! Fighting my way from the back after a useless swim

On some of those sections of the MTB course it felt like I was doing a second swim leg!!

Tankman, if you keep logging your events on SA Active, even after you've hit the points cap, do these get registered for carry over points for next year? I'm trying to figure out if there is any sense in continuing to log events now that I have hit the points cap. Thanks.

Also had lots of fun. The MTB course would have been boring and uneventful were it not for the mud. Well organized and lekker morning out. And my Scalpel seems to have survived...
