i want to do this 1 day as well. so following if you don't mind @IceCreamMan

I am in Ireland and will also need to move to Eurosport, but apparently will need to use a VPN as well. So frustrating as I am in the 1st world 🤣

prices are still more expensive than on Bike24 for most of the items i want 🤣 even with the discount

Sunrise in Dublin this morning on my way to work. 😁

what is the quality like of the sprockets? Do you have a link? I am keen to get a few

Flying with your bike is quick and easy with the big airlines. I fly Emirates when i emigrated to Dublin and it was super simple. Just phone the airline after booking the ticket and let them know you bringing a bike bag. Take it to oversize after checking in and collect at your destination. Was an absolute breeze. I used a Scicon bag and had no issues. My only issue was finding a taxi big enough to get to my new lodgings 🤣

i like the part in BOLD. makes sense

Crazy. not adding the actual hospital (unless it is requested). It is quite hectic

What happened? Not watching live sadly

Looks very smart. Out of curiousity, what did this cost all in (including installation) if i may ask? you welcome to DM if better

Here in Ireland, i can get the 28mm (tan wall) for €50 (about R910 delivered). Just for comparison (this is imported from Germany and includes shipping).

Not my best year in terms of elevation or mileage but this year included a move to Ireland so overall I am happy. Looking forward to next year. 😁

Had some fun in the snow in Dublin Mountains. Was awesome. And cold!! 🥶

Lovely autumn cycle in Dublin yesterday. Sun was shining but wind was freezing, but totally worth it.

@JacquesLomb I have owned a Cannondale scalpel (2017), Scott Spark (2020) and now the Orbea TR 10 (2022) with 120mm. 1. absolutely love the bike. still dialing in the tyres as i have moved to Dublin and need to get to know the ground conditions but so far so good. trials are quite different to what i am used to in Durbanville. But cannot fault the XT 12 speed drive train nor the dropper post or suspension or carbon wheels. 2. honestly think there are to many cables but nothing 1 can do about that unless you run AXS and remove the lockouts but it all works though functionally. 3. not sure on after service support as i imported directly from Spain but there are numerous Orbea dealers in Dublin so can only imagine it will go well. Any other questions, give a shout

ah. i ordered my bike direct from Spain as i now reside in Ireland. 😁

not sure i follow which part you referring to Mr Spin?

This is my bike. No couch picture but rather its natural habitat. 😄

Hey BaGearA, I have the Orbea Oiz M10 TR 2022 model with the 120 mm Fox 34 shock. It is awesome. cannot fault it

@BigDL out of curiosity, what race was this you are referring to?

What i have learnt from commuting for the last 2 months in Ireland is actually how crazy commuting was in Cape Town. You never realise just how close the cars actually came, how aggressive and taxing commuting could be until you don't have cars push past you, cars wait for you up a hill until safe to pass, etc. Really is an eye opener. And apparently Ireland is not even one of the best places to cycle yet I feel like i am in cycling heaven as every ride doesn't feel like it could be my last.

Got myself a new steed. No couch picture as we are renting (and furniture was included). 😁 Absolutely love the bike. Only hit the trails twice so far but loving it.

how much race left?

where did Louis end?
