  5. Just saw it mentioned and copied from FB... "Hi guys, bike jacking at last night's full moon ride in the Cradle, just past the Brookwood trout farm entrance going uphill towards Bidon. Cyclist shoot, no warning, very lucky, bullet hit bottom of left ear and went through top of shoulder, 2nd cyclist not harmed. 2 bikes stolen with cellphones etc. Very disappointing and disheartening, no value for life in SA."
  6. Good luck to all racing, the hard work has been done... is now your race and reward!

  11. Higuita should have stayed off camera when showboating as it got him fired from EF, even though he is leaving at the end of the year https://cyclingtips.com/2021/11/sergio-higuita-has-been-fired-for-riding-the-wrong-bike/
  12. Had a pair of the CloudFlow a few years ago when lots of pro triathletes seemed to use them. Hated them!! Felt like had numerous pressure points under the soles of my feet with all the individual bumps that make up the sole. Also the crevices between the bumps collected stones often when running on the road and I was forever stopping to flick out the stones that got jammed in there..... they now at the back of a cupboard and don't even use them for just ordinary day to day wear.

  15. Everyone starts somewhere and as I said they seem to have aspirations as did Doug many years ago. More exposure with TQA/Protouch/TeamAmani and others and perhaps something will rise again out of Africa. TQA days seem numbered. when do they next have to submit docs to the UCI ?
  16. Is not the only African team with aspirations https://www.teamamani.com/ out of East Africa/Holland and as Rwanda seems to be on the up. Perhaps whilst the African vision might be diminishing with TQN, others are looking to capitalize.

    Clause 3 of the rules https://ridejoburg.co.za/rules-and-regulations/ Agree it is dangerous to promote non racing riders into the Vets.
  18. Last Sunday 24 October 2021 https://bikehub.co.za/stolen-bikes/1858/merida-reacto-4000-2020. It happens, so if people want to feel safer with support cars so be it and live with it as it is an inconvenience for a second or two until you can pass safely.

  20. GPLama has given them a fairly good review, especially the updated versions with feedback from his testing of them
