  1. I've always looked forward to this event. It has always been a good indicator for the Argus.
  2. That's sad to hear. The Krugersdorp 32km road race was one of my favourites, and the stadium was always a nice place to finish.
  3. Don't be cruel. We would never see our friends from Gauteng again
  4. Im not sure what part of the western cape you live in but its major road works not just a couple pot holes that need fill in. If we go over Boyes then people must just be careful around that corner.I'm not from that part, but from what I can remember it is a major overhaul of all the storm water and sewer systems as well.
  5. I spoke to Steve Hayward yesterday. The main concern was the bottle neck of two lanes into one on Main Road. The organisers felt that a lot of cyclists would have to come to a complete halt while the congestion clears itself. I'm sure enough warning will be given to cyclists about the dangers of Boyes Drive.
  6. There were 100 for the 94.7 74.9
  7. Last year i finished the race before my wife started and had to wait 4 hours for her to finish. This year I intend riding with her.
  8. I'm so glad you asked. I didn't want to sound stupid.
  9. that sucks. I'm thinking about getting a mtb. What's the point of having a bike computer that has multiple bike setups and they don't supply the mount as an accessory.
  10. Tyre liners are the way to go. I've only had two flats is eight years, and those two times were large thorns that got onto the road.
  11. Saturday leg loosener and sweet & easy will start at 7.00am
  12. there's nothing like finishing your ride and emptying your pockets' date=' only to find your cell phone covered in gel [/quote'] Rule No 1. Always put your cell phone in a plastic bag for just in case ....... So no prob with it being covered in gel plastic bag = additional weight to carry
  13. on the indoor trainer at the moment. I did 10 minutes on the road on Thursday. That was a bad idea.
  14. Come out and try. If you haven't signed up by the 5th ride we will let your tires down I would recommend that you don't try and ride in a bunch with tri-bars PS Bring money for coffee afterwards
  15. Visitors welcome ? Tri-Bars to be removed ? visitors welcome tri-bars ? You'll probably be in the front doing all the work
  16. that's us. 7am leg loosner on Saturday ?45km (bring money for coffee afterwards). Sundays rides vary. Route is announced on Saturday.
  17. You fool. The spider is there for a purpose. Once you have finished the gel, you discard the packet over your shoulder. The spider then attaches the empty packet to the frame of your bike so you can dispose of the packet later.
  18. you realise the non locals have no idea what your talking about.
  19. that helmet looks like a WWII German paratrooper helmet
