Just ordered a few pairs to test the waters.
Will let you know what they're like.
And obviously post pics.

Was browsing a while back and found this.

Not cycling specific, but not overly pricey, and some decent designs.
We have a very weak selection of cycling socks in SA.
You find some cool DeFeet here and there, but no Sockguy or 4shaw etc.
Light-Bicycle have a store on Aliexpress.
I prefer buying through Aliexpress for the buyer protection and seller ratings etc.

I'm also waiting for wheels that arrived in SA on the 12th.
Between the Chinese, and the retards at SAPO, you have to just be patient.
They tried to deliver it last Wednesday and nobody was there to accept the package. Apparently.
Go to your post office with the tracking number, it should be there.

Try these...
And if its in SA, then this http://trackmyparcel.co.za/
Cool
If you shop on Aliexpress and type 25mm U-Shape carbon wheels into the search bar, hundreds of options come up.
So what do you do if you decide you'd prefer to run a SRAM grouppo, and it says XT in bold on the sides of the top tube above the shock...?

I know its not LCHF but here is my new plan of action - http://eatingtotrain.blogspot.com/2015/07/eating-for-training-and-racing.html
Will have to find a new place to post
I don't have any links for you to look at, but try finding some info on carb cycling. Perhaps experiment with ramping up on carbs before high intensity training and racing, and then carb fasting on recovery/IMTG days.
Obviously its more in depth than just " ramping up on carbs before high intensity training and racing, and then carb fasting on recovery/IMTG days.", but worth looking into a bit more detail on.
I used the principles when I was dieting for bodybuilding shows, and had much success with it...
From what I understand particle size testing is not available in SA.

The link just leads to a whole bunch of code.
Interested in your experience at the jock, and am enjoying your blog.
Honda needs to just give Dani Pedwanker's ride to Pol Espargaro already.
Assuming they'd like to keep everything Spanish. I'd say Crutchlow if they didn't care for a Spaniard, but he's in the sand more than on the tar lately.
I think with a bit more development Aleix will get that Suzuki to be more competitive. So far it's fast enough for a decent qualifying and a few laps at the start.
Thank goodness Yamaha has found something to stop it being a 1 horse race again this season. And Ducati has come along in leaps n bounds.
On the faster circuits the two Andreia's are in the mix...
It's definitely the most exciting season in a while...
Morewood's are best know for the gravity side, going downhill FAST.

Soooo, what I'm getting here is that you're a fan...?
Looks a lot like a Niner Jet 9.
On strava, go into your training log near the top right corner of the page. A page comes up where it gives you a summary of your training per calendar week. On the left of the 'bubbles' it'll give you your time, distance and ascent for the week. Hover your cursor over each daily bubble and it'll give you all the info for that ride. Add everything up from the 20th of April and you'll know where you are badge wise.
I found that the badges only updated the following day, even if I sync'd.
They still raced on Cannondale's, but are definitely sponsorless. It was mentioned more than a few times during race commentary and at prize giving each evening.
The new store belongs to Mr Pavlov, of Northcliff Cycles fame...
I'm all badged up like a boy scout.
Please pick ME Isuzu...!!!!!
