  1. Nothing listed in the event info about a specific e-bike category, don't know if there was a category within each distance for e-bike?
  2. Not so much fun to be trying your darndest and having someone race past you on e-power. Also, no e-bike category, so these riders finish in the same category as the rest. I'm no winner and this is just ego, so in the grand scheme of things, live and let live.
  3. How did everyone find the race? Arrived about 7:15 at the venue and my GF went in search of our numbers for the race. I joined and made it out of there at about 7:44 and luckily the start was postponed. My GF was not as lucky and she missed the start of the 95km - don't know if this was also postponed? I found the route to be enjoyable and the corrugation wasn't bad. I'm not a very technical rider but the climb against the fence was fun. Breedt's was tough, my HT didn't find the up or down very pleasant and I was less than amused with the e-bikes just cruising past. The 3rd water point (WP2 the 2nd time) had run out of water and sweets but still had some coke and oranges (and maybe potato's?) which was fine for me. The 4th was well stocked and made up for the deficiencies of WP3. The medal was a bit of a let down - but I don't really care about that. All in all, I'll gladly do the race again.
  4. Indeed, a month of normal life ahead. It's been fun, well done Bernal.
  5. Well done Pinot, Frenchies will go wild with his win and AP's defence of the jersey.
  6. Nibbles dropped... Get him trying to lose time, but this is a bit much.
  7. Yes!!! Bloody goosebumps, emotional stuff.
  8. Missed most of his glory days, but seems to be a nice oke.
  9. Greipel still hanging on! I have to wonder why he is there though?
  10. Come on Jumbo Visma! Great effort by the Wolfpack.
  11. To reference another thread, the commentators back the decision. But agree it wasn't good communication. What race will be next for Cav? Edit: I also think he is not currently good enough.
  12. Same same, see you guys there????
  13. Hi Zeffer, Was this at Klapperkop or Groenkloof? Happy that they weren't harmed.
  14. No relation to any of the below, but does anyone know the story of Kraft bikes? The google machine doesn't really give any substantial results. https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/368021-kraft-aerolite-full-carbon/ https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/171304-4-stolen-bikes-3-kraft-bikes-ans-1-giant/
  15. Viviani went very well. Beat Sagz baby hands down, but I assume Sagz will still be in yellow. Edit: Sagz did have to go the long way round.
