  1. jason, thats why you have to go up from the botrivier side (through that cattle gate, up that very steep sement piece road) and rather go down on that corosion side towards the franshoek road. that downhill is is jeeptrack, but if you loose it on that down, you break a arm, collorbone and leg with some ribs. its hell of a technical down there.
  2. comparison between groenland berg and Franschoek pass (from the back of franschoek pass)
  3. decide to spend some productive time at work and make you 4 pics. 1) is a training route - plenty of gravel and sinkplaat (its a tough route) 2) GROENLANDBERG - Profile 3)(PART1) a google pic of the first part of the mountain (look far top left for the grabouw towards franshoek (4 passes road) 4)(PART2) See the last past of the mountain. AWESOME VIEWS !!!!! So, when are we going to do this ? popeye2008-01-04 04:27:25
  4. come on E1....4, its the only choice.
  5. spot on spinnekop, my shammy gee my ook eina na 6 uur se ry. maar melksalf/speensalf help daarmee.
  6. or the ones that fit 98% of all cyclist without any problems... play save.. and get something you will be sure its not going to hurt your bum. Fizik Arione for roadbike Fizik Gobi for mtb
  7. oh, one last reference: Asked Buff, we got a friend who got a "test" spec epic to ride for ONE month, (before the epic). Hy gave it back to Willie and rode the Epic with his scott, that had a bent frame. He now own a scott spark..
  8. convert, remember these words "Why did I not listen to popeye" If you want a mtb that climb easy and without hazzle, get a anthem. If you want a dual mtb with a name, but do not care that it ride as hard as a hardtail, get a spez.popeye2007-12-11 06:34:14
  9. Coimbra Cycles - Port Elizabeth (041) 365 2066
  10. buff, you almost rode into that bridge after seeing that black hair girl outside paarl in the black car. looks like woman is a problem in general.
  11. the anthem will give you more value 4 your money. but then again: you not going to make a living from cycling. buy the one you like most.popeye2007-12-10 06:02:48
  12. kiwi, you left you open for some punishment here... 1, 2, 3, .....popeye2007-12-10 05:06:30
  13. Buff, yah, that sounds like fun. Ill put on the gps for future expeditions :-) Ok Buff, lets make it a long weekend with base mile training. FIRST: No one , and I mean no one, invites me anymore for a braai. I tried that on saturday night and got home 2h on sunday morning. So, please do not invite me for anything that will be close to redwine :-) Saturday: Buff Paarl Rock route Sunday's: Gordensbay easy and flat recovery. Monday : To Franshoek pass, to the back @ the white bridge
  14. Maruis, its a long weekend, so we doing long rides. Laat ek net gou met Buff en die gabba's gesels. Ek dink hulle gaan afry stilbaai toe, So ek dink nie jy wil saam hulle. Ek wou afgaan na die in-laws in Hermanus, maar hulle het 'n partytjie aan saterdagaand by hul huis vir hulle vriende. (dit gaan sekerlik soos 'n outehuis samekoms wees, hoogs engels en baie goeie wyn), maar ek laaik nie om te paartie met 'n suit en tie. so, ons gesin gaan maar dit skip. So, kry jou solank reg, en pomp die dukwiel se wiele.
  15. Any mtb, is fine, even with slicks. as long as we all understand that we going for base miles. (our goal is next years epic). I got phytons on at this stage. were do yu stay? northern surburbs? popeye2007-12-10 03:27:47
  16. the ride is about 135k's , now on a mtb, thats far, so, company is good. It helps you keep going and make sure you dont turn around when gatvol. thats why its important to train with guys who train for the same goal. no use in training with guys who (at this stage) just ride because its the right thing to do. we have some sort of training plan, which zonne's we going to train in, etc. thats why we prefer guys who now ride with the mtb's, because the distances is long, but the zonne's should be around 70%.. base training. speed is not important at all. popeye2007-12-10 03:02:03
  17. Bainskloof is 'n baie maklikker klim. Ek dink ek , FanD en BMC het daar al 40km/h op geklim van daai draai waar die water bruggie is. Dis B/Kloof se klim:
  18. Buff, daai paartie saterdagaand en die bottel pinotage wat Hagar my gegee het, het meer uit my lyf gehaal as die saterdag se training ride. Sorry dat ek julle gister gedrop het, ek was besig om druiwe vergiftiging tee te werk :-) Dis nie hoe vinnig ons die bult klim, dis meer hoe lank daai bult is. :-)popeye2007-12-10 02:36:33
  19. so, as jy die eerste stukkie klim ook byneem, is dit 20km lank:
  20. Fand.. onthou ons ry met mtb's en met knobblies, so van die huis en terug was dit 135km , daai klim in die middel en baie sterk wind. Die wat wil weet waar dit is? CLASSIFIED INFO :-)
  21. finishing the epic.
  22. Iemand het so 2weke gelede gevra, waar kry jy 'n lang genoeg bult om te kan train . Wel, 'n paar Epic ouens (Buff incl), het saterdag hierdie outjie gaan ry. Met 'n storm sterk wind van voor, het dit nogal geneuk en ons meer as 'n uur gevat om te klim popeye2007-12-10 02:21:03
  23. I think he's going BIG with his 1000 POST. Like buying maruis Eastons for R8,999
  24. ja, you must see, if you play robbie wessels se leeu loop, or kurt darrans, rooi rokkie something, they will come over with beer and koeksisters. you must try to fool them that way.
  25. pantani, i'm stupid as well, but you listen to the sound , I think its the front speakers and the next moment a shot came from the speaker behind you, (and remember these sound affects is always like 50% louder than what you listen) so, the sound effects is coming from somewere else. and its like a canon shooting outside you window
