  1. A friend on mine had a crash while hitting a hole in the middle of the path, a path that was completely covered by the massive amount of overgrowth. R40 a ride is more than most other rides so a little maintenance shouldn't be out of the question.
  2. I'm a Cannondale fan so don't even need to tell you which I'd pick
  3. From what I've heard, these Vanderbijlpark races are fairly flat and fast.
  4. I want a 510, although wonder if it will presumable be worth paying more for it than the current 500?
  5. I see you guys mentioning protein. My question is what recommendations for protein shakes/suppliments would you have for pre and post cycles and what is the best for during? I would assume carbs during the ride instead of protein?
  6. This was the post on the Burry Stander facebook page today:
  7. The stickers are available in the January edition of Bicycling magazine.
  8. I rode a group ride this morning and I've never experienced so much respect and vigilance from motorists as I did today. It seems that the Burry tragedy and the exposure it received may have brought some much needed attention to cyclists. Whether it lasts is a whole different story sadly.
  9. My two cents on these mass rides: 1. As mentioned by someone else already, these rides should be organised one per city by a more official means, such as by Burry's facebook page (which I presume is already the actual case) rather than there being a dozens of little rides with a small Ineffectual group in each. 2. Also, rather than angering motorists by blocking roads and causing tensions to rise, as cyclists we should actually try to use this tragedy to raise awareness to cyclists and our safety while at the same time honouring a cycling legend.
  10. Rest in peace Burry, a great cyclist and more importantly, a great person!
  11. Is it just me or has anyone found that Modderfontein is horribly overgrown of late? The guys seriously need to take a mower to some of that grass/weeds.
  12. I have the Elixer 7 on my bike and although the braking is really good, they have squeeked/vibrated endlessly from the first time I rode the bike. I would never buy another set of Elixer anything!
  13. The Cannondale Evo all the way for me.
  14. The 29ers are being ridden in the bush by cyclists while the part time cyclists have their 26ers attached to the back of their cars, and it's there they will probably stay for their entire holiday.
  15. Same here bud! He was the greatest, no doubt about that!!!
  16. Won't be able to today but I'm very keen t o hit the spruit soon. I hear it's a good ride.
  17. Yeah good question, I bought entries for two friends who might not use them. I'll keep you guys posted, but as above, how would the transfer of these be done?
  18. Cyclists aren't rude... We are awesome!
  19. Great, I'll almost certainly be there... What time? 5ish?
  20. Anyone riding from Dunkeld this month?
  21. I couldn't agree more with this.
  22. Yeah my Avid 7 Have literally screamed from my first ever ride on the bike.
  23. I love my Supersix!!!
  24. Guys, quick question but I see this race is timed by Championship Chip, do we need to buy one of their chips to get an official time or will the Racetec chip work here?
