  1. Was a fat jol. Took a tumble over the bars on stage 2, but no biggy. Was a good vibe amongst the riders, and awesome to chill afterwards.
  2. How am I supposed to sleep tonight? !
  3. Yeah I'm no downhill demon, and really don't care about my own time, but I also don't want to hold up other guys who want to give it a blast I want to enjoy the sick trails, and have fun. Same goes for my buddy who is joining me. He did it last year, only 3 months after starting to cycle and thought it was crazy. I convinced him to do it again this year after gaining some more experience. If anything its a lil personal competition between ourselves Counting down the hours.
  4. Super keen for this It'll be a first for me, and I'm hoping to still have all my teeth in my mouth at the end of the day But I'm a bit worried about slowing down the faster guys. How do the organisers avoid this?
  5. Goody bag collected, bike was in the morning, ready to roll. Flu is ripping me to shreds, but I'm not missing out on this!
  6. i wonder if the same will count for the political rally planned for the sunday, that has messed up with so many peoples plans
  7. How do we determine our batches in the cyclocross, based on our race number?
  8. In on the 55km cyclocross Haven't cycled in weeks. Have flu, and having root canal done tomorrow morning. .
  9. From my extensive RTFM'ing i saw a bit where it was suggested the sensor and magnet be no more than 3mm apart... Hope this helps On my 1st ride using it at the lynford classic on sunday, mine worked perfectly
  10. I picked up a Giant XTC1 2weeks back, with 1st ride this past sunday, and I'm happy as a pig in poop! Not that this will help you much, just putting it out there
  11. divernick, on 05 September 2012 - 11:41 , said: RTFM Much easier to post moronic questions on the hub than RTFM. What amazes me is that we are capable of reading a computer screen with the solution but not the manual. I'm sorry that you gents found my post "moronic". Take a moment to considder that I did indeed RTFM that came with the device, and I'm not sure if either of you, or anyone else on the forum is using one, but those who do, might be able to confirm that the manual provided with the device is not of much use to those who are not familiar with the device, ie "first timers". Much to your surprize, I even went as far as downloading the online pdf user manual from Bryton, and after following the steps on that I still did not have joy in getting the machine to work. Nowhere in the literature does it state if it uses gps signal to track speed and distance, or via the sensor. I apologize for not knowing. Heaven forbit I ask on a open forum! In the meantime with the info from usefull replies, and those on other forums, with the downloaded manual I have been able to set it up and get it working ok for now. Will only really know after my next cycle. To those who posted helpful replies, thank you. It did indeed help.
  12. hi, i'm no good at this, and need help So i've set up the machine as described in the user manual i downloaded Now when i take it for a spin, it doesn't seem to do anything except show my cadence (thank goodness i got that bit right) What else should it be doing? I'm kinda expecting it to show speed, distance, and maybe the 'route' that was traveled? Or does it only indicate speed and distance via the sensor pick-up, and not via gps placement? If any other owners can please help this fool out. Cheers Ryno
  13. Can't help with the garmin bit, but i also did the ride, but the 45km! Was a stinker, but not too hard, good workout though. Hoping to figure out how to work my bryton 35 working, i have no idea how to get it going, then hopefully if you have the same issue at the next event i can see whats the deal with signal. Cheers Ryno
  14. Picked up a Giant XTC1 29er on friday. Wiff toobless conversion done. LOVING it, albeit only ridden on road. 1st off road ride will be on Sunday at the Umko Classic. But for now, WOW!
  15. I've purchased from them before with no issues. I just placed my order for one of these offers. Delivery time, as per fine print...up to 4 weeks. Its going to be a long 4 weeks
