  1. Any specifics on the area? And do you think she'll be able to ID them?

    I think they're racing around the cradle, being served wonderful meals by their butler on every lap. (Sometimes I race around the cradle, before anyone gets offended in-between mouthfuls of caviar)

    Not that I care much about the time but the results don't seem to have the final day included, which seems weird since all the other days were up very quickly. Am I missing something, or will they put up later? I thought the food was great, especially considering how many people they had to feed. No complaints here.

    Please put up a pic of the goodie bag gear, whoever gets a chance? Would like to see how much warmth it'll provide!

    so, Hubbers riding together in which event and batch? I'll start a list: worriesnot and Whitters - Trail, G Batch davetapson - Adv, E Batch Zook - Race, L Batch (The Guptas)
  7. Ouch, can't be helped and you didn't intend to mess up. Mistakes happen. Get back on the bike and be happy the two of you can ride races together in future. This one will pass.
  8. That's not so good. Sorry :/ I missed why you're not riding, will look for it.

    Which shuttle, Whitters? I assume you don't mean the car shuttle? http://www.sani2c.co.za/DisplayLink.aspx?group=Services&name=Car%20shuttles So for a couple from jhb, only option is to drive there, or is there some kinda shuttle from here? Or do you mean "airport transport" from Scottsburg beach? http://www.sani2c.co.za/DisplayLink.aspx?group=Services&name=Airport%20transport
  10. Does this race close off the Cradle or is it still possible to ride there?
  11. They're both awesome. Here's a vote for the Pyga. I'm 186cm and around 100kg, hit 106 a while back but going down now. Partly due to the Pyga 120 that I'm loving I'm very happy with the bike weight - much easier to drop kg's myself. I love the feel of the bike - it eats up the rough stuff and goes fast when I want it to. Cool review: http://www.bikeradar.com/mtb/gear/category/bikes/mountain-bikes/full-suspension/product/review-pyga-industries-onetwenty650-frame-only-13-47641/
  12. Very funny story about a dude who dislocated both shoulders while on a ride. The frustration of trying to fix yourself when your arms aren't working! No nearby help, not sure how one would phone in that state. Ended ok but I remember him saying how he was barely useful for a while after that. http://nomadicbrood.com/captains-log-day-90/
  13. Thanks Trench but found out she has to go to a baby shower, so it's just me and I bought one. There were a few looking yesterday so check out the event classifieds.
  14. Thanks Cas_1, but if I don't get two there's going to be a very cross lady )
  15. Been trying to enter and only has 10 and 20+km as options, so I'm guessing the longer routes are full?
  16. I'm happy to chip in for shipping if you guys can get a reasonable rate. [edit] Maybe check LBS and see if they'll box it for you free? They usually know how the shipping works.
  17. Eskom just killed my power! Clowns.
  18. Time growing between Froome and Quintana, so unless Froome blows early, this is done. Still 5km so...
  19. It must be an insane feeling being in the last 20, having just dropped Nibali, with Contador, Froome, Quintana. That'll be a memory.
  20. Who's the MTN rider still in the front bunch? Edit: ri-ders
  21. Welcome. You're going to love the race! It's not really a big-mountain type of race but the views and atmosphere are fantastic. Get some mountain biking done in the Cape if you can. Rent the mtb, but do it.
  22. The ideal picture is waking up early, going for a ride, getting home at 9 and wandering around with family [edit: daily]. Look, I'm only thinking of your emotional distress 5 minutes after you finish your one and only ride.
  23. In the Cape and you'll ride once? I think ride near the beginning of your trip and then decide how much riding you want to do. Cape Hubbers: your task, should you choose to accept it, is to give him reason to cancel a few appointments.
  24. I generally consider each interaction with a pedestrian an opportunity to un-*$#% the reputation riders have. Greet them, ride around them, slow down, etc. Some won't greet you back but that's ok - they've probably repeatedly had to deal with some jerk bombing past them. Riding past a pedestrian at speed is just like a super-bike caning it past us.
