  1. Have always left my bike in the bike park at the DC, never had any issues. Access to the bike park is controlled and the bike removal is also checked. Unless you put your bike in a car or use a strong padlock, I would not leave my bike on a trailer at these large events. Going to be difficult to have lunch after the race while moving around with your bike.
  2. Would love to enter, but a week's notice is a bit short?
  3. Thanks @Cptmayhem for all the updates. Very excited!
  4. Thanks Dogs and lol! That would have been very funny.
  5. Anyone notice that the R100 PnP voucher has been removed from the 100 points option? Don't know if this was mentioned before.
  6. It is was great to be out there at 5am in the morning and sometimes till 7pm after work. It would be a real loss if we can't continue with this. So yes, I am willing to pay for the service.
  7. Ah yes, I rode in the BSSS events (unfortunately not riding tomorrow). I've actually been trying to get info about the BSSS Crit around Swartkops. I do enjoy the hard style of Crits, but it is not everyone's flavour. Either way, have a good one. I think we share the same valley and maybe the same bike (GT?).
  8. All fair points, there is a history of Crit racing in SA. However take into account that the Helivac series was not continued this year (for whatever reason). The Melrose event that Moses tried to put together was cancelled unfortunately. When was the BSSS event held this year? I wanted to enter a corp team for the event, however was also told that the corporate race was scrapped due to lack of interest. So I do feel your pain. 480 is not bad, but I don't expect all 480 to be on the same level (fitness and bike handling). I also didn't know that this event was held last year. I'll still go and see what can be salvaged.
  9. Entered! Wanted to enter the Corporate Event as well, but cancelled due to lack of interest
  10. Fantastic!!! Thanks U/A!
  11. Wait what... I thought you meant the Panorama has been postponed? Edit: Where did you get the info about the Panorama?
  12. Please share!
  13. You've got a PM.
  14. Alternatively if you need someone to burn-off, give me a shout.
  15. Why not put together a team of stragglers (as someone mentioned before)? I am sure we can get a team together. Buy in beforehand, deposit entry fee into a communal account and the chosen captain enters the team. Get some shirts made, can decide to stay together or not and bob's your uncle.
  16. Last Saturday of November... Edit: Found the tweet funny though:)
  17. I guess now is a good time to start training then. Maybe (probably) looking for a team to join, did a 6h30 last year.
  18. My Apologies, it went straight to spam... Thanks for the reply! Edit: The credit card portal is however still down. Just completed my entry
  19. @BigJohnSwan please could you assist on the payments issue? Then I also sent a mail on Friday to enquire about the tented accommodation, but no reply yet?
  20. I agree with everything said above, positive and negative. I do however feel that all of the above should be brought to the attention of the organisers. @trapNet 360...
  21. I entered on Friday but have not been able to pay and finalise, as Entry Ninja's credit card portal is down. Apparently they are working on it. Anyone have any more info/better update?
  22. Did the trailrun today, the organisation was top notch. Pannekoek and potatoes at the waterpoints, fully stocked and the route was well marked. I imagine the mtb would have been the same?
  23. Looks like a lekker race, now to convince a partner...
  24. Those look boss!
  25. Hey Guys, So I'm considering getting a set of wheels from a guy who imports from China. Soloteam, 50mm clinchers, full carbon. Apparently running Soloteam R15 hubs, but I would like to get Novatec hubs if possible, obviously this will impact price. From what I gather on the web, it would be the below wheels: http://www.carbonbicyclewheel.com/product/60598629374-804387642/_SOBE_50RC23_soloteam_bicycle_wheels_50mm_carbon_wheels_Clincher_solo_bicycle_wheels_700c.html Anyone have any experience on these, or any advice in general?
