I'd suggest start the league in Cat 2 (Although majority of that field are sub3 CTCT riders, well atleast the top15 or so fighting for positions). Cat 2 also has more teams/clubs so that tends to make the racing exciting and tough aswell. You could always drop down to Cat3 in the next few races if you feel Cat2 is too hard, The ladies (Organizers) have no issue with that however you don't take points earned with you I believe. Also just a final heads up, Cat3 is and will be tough aswell. There are a few Sub3 riders in Cat3 and they also often have team tactics at play. I'd say the biggest difference between Cat2 & Cat3 is that in Cat2 the gap between the stronger riders and the back of the pack, is smaller than that in Cat3! In Cat3 will get some strong guys and then the back markers aren't close the end of the races whereas in Cat2 the back markers don't finish that far behind, albeit a few mins. That's what I've experienced.

Be careful on this stretch of road people.

Heard the interview with the JP Smith yesterday on Kfm news about this hotspot, Most likely only making news now because motorist are now also becoming victims IMHO

I see there is a video doing the rounds on Facebrick of the very same spot being a smash & Grab hotpost during peak traffic 1 morning, I think it happened end of last week.

Yeah thats what I also said to my mates. But there is also a pre-race pic looks like when they leaving the accommodation and he has the top on, on the other hand that could've been from the Friday night pre-spin. Anyway, none of my business LOL

Loos like Roger Kluge in the rainbow jersey, current Madison World Champ. Not sure why he wore the jersey for a road race, But your guess is as good as mine.

Double post... Double Century thread.. Oh well

Hope Vye give you a discount on the kit because they used their old logo? LOL Kit looks cool, different, 1 of the best parts about the DC is seeing all the cool custom kit desings. All the best.

That's because some 160kg Oom on a farm in Hoedspruit who was sitting at 6am with a triple coke and brandy probably received your sms so he is going to buy an E-MTB today, cycling shorts that don't cover his crack-a-snack and borrow a Medium size short zip top from another Oom who raced bikes in 1976 and also borrow his topsport helmet and start in your place on Sunday.

Johan is your christian name, Junaid is your muslim name...

Not just wrong name, Have mates who have received sms' with wrong names and they're starting in $ and definitely don't belong there so something with the seeding sms' is amiss...

I didn't actually, So thanks so much man, Will order myself 2 sets just incase... Thanks again man #Legend

Genuine qu, What are the chances of finding decent bikes to hire in France, in July. Don't they have some small 3 week race thingy happening LOL. OP Sorry to hear about your loss, That Van Rysel has to pop up somewhere eventually, Considering there are no stockists in CT or the whole of SA as yet, It's going to be a hard bike to get rid of.

Everytime I watch this video it gets better and better, the cries from the perp of "I'm sorry boss" non stop whilst being taught some street manners from our local community members is beautiful, Like listening to birds singing in the morning. The best part is, in the video it's not even cyclists who were gathered around who dished out these life lessons, It's a gentleman who was seemingly waiting at the bus stop which is right there and another lady, who also had her fair share of bend it like Beckham inputs. Just shows how cowardly these thugs are without a weapon in their hand.

Am I missing the sarcasm here seeing as you actually are the new Vets SA Champ and you won your Cat? LOL Congrats again btw.
