    Oh. Ok. I might be wrong. Do you know from where they start?
  2. edkin
    I should have added that its an mtb group. A lot of the cyclists are probably retired and there is a large percentage of E-Bikes in the group

    I'm trying to find out some details and/or contact details of a group of cyclists that start on Tuesday mornings riding from Pedlars on the bend restaurant. Can anybody help? Thanks in advance

    What's so funny about somebody cycling along Main road Hermanus? They are probably cycling to/from Hemel en Aarde trails as part of their warm up/cool down. Can I assume that you would put your bike on the bike rack to drive to to the trails?

    Great. I'll get in touch. thanks for the referral.
  6. edkin
    Is there any way I can contact them? Websites, telephone etc. (5F). @Pure Savage. That sounds perfect. Mature is boring. I want to get hold of the immature ones.

    Hi all I was cycling with my wife on Tuesday around Constantia Nek. we were coming down a hill and on our mtbs and we passed a group a guys (about 8 or 10) of more advanced age busy going in the opposite direction. It struck me afterwards that I should have asked them if they were a bunch of mates cycling together or if they were part of a riding club. I'm in my 60's and all my riding buddies are much younger than I am so it tends to become a struggle to keep up with them. Are there riding clubs for mature people in the Cape Town area? Asking for a friend ????

    I'm a little confused and would appreciate some clarification as the wording for the 109kms has been interepreted differently by several people that I've spoken to 1) Does one have to ride 109kms (IN ONE ride) in March or, 2) Can one ride different rides which all add up to 109kms in March. i.e. say 11 rides of 10kms each. As long as they are all ridden in March. Some clarification would be appreciated.

    Very noble of you. I know some twats on conventional bikes that would laugh at somebody struggling up that hill.
  10. edkin
    How is this picture related to twats on E-Bikes?

    Great. thanks for the feedback. @X-man. that might be a good idea. You want to pm me?

    I'm going to the George area over the Christmas period and want to mtb around the dam area. I have cycled there before and its been great. I want to inquire: 1) Has the area become a hot spot (Dangerous) from the point of view of hijackings and/or attacks lately? 2) Does a person need a permit to cycle in the area? If so, where can I get one. Thanks upfront for any info/guidance

    Agreed

    Are these shops open during the lockdown?

    I have got red rubber but I took a look at it and wasn't enthusiastic about using it. Where would I be able to get these other alternatives? At the local Midas??

    I would like to service my Rockshox recon. I collected all the spares and the oils, but, I've just realised that I don't have any Sram butter that all youtube videos use. Is there an alternative grease I can use? Thanks in anticipation

    If that has a hub motor then you should have a throttle to test if the motor runs or not. Its highly likey that your cadence sensor is not working.

    The problem is that they will be riding EBikes but not in the EBike category. Which is essentially cheating because its not in the spirit of the event.
  19. edkin
    Thanks for that. I have two friends entered but they didn't enter in the Ebike group at the time. Only afterwards they got Ebikes. They emailed the CTCT to request to be changed to Ebike group but their communications must have been lost because they are now in two other groups.
  20. edkin
    Does anybody know how the Ebike entries are working? I know they are in a seperate category, but do they all start in the same (one) grup or are they scatterd all over the place? Asking for a friend

    edkin replied to edkin's topic in New Gear

    Thanks all for the inputs Ive been scratching around and it seems that I'll be visiting Durbanville area this weekend. Its amazing that there is nothing in the southern suburbs. Freewheel Cycology in Kenilworth only has one or two sizes. None of them suitable. Revolution cycles also don't have the correct sizes although they can get for me. Tygerberg has got all the sizes I want so I'll try them and also look at the Ion at Giant Durbanville while I'm there

    Flat pedal mtb shoes

    edkin replied to edkin's topic in New Gear

    They look like a great shoe. I've always viewd Specialised as a superior (albeit expensive) product. I'll pop into my nearest Specialised LBS this weekend. Thanks for the tip
