  1. Great, I just wanted to be sure. Thank you
  2. Eveza, would you please give a bit of a description of the 4 support table that would be available? Will it mostly be water and sweets? Or will there be something like boerie-rolls and banana bread?
  3. Ah ok, never knew that! I see that there is something like Tridenosen-H for humans, but looks like the composition is very different and too much hassle for a bit of ATP.
  4. Tridenosen actually is actually as close to a magic bullet that you will ever get! It has been used successfully in horse- and greyhound racing for the past decade. The good thing about it is that it can be used before a race and after as an recovery aid. The only problem for cyclists, is that it needs to be injected in the muscles, so it would be easy to see if a cyclists took a few shots.
  5. It was previously timed by Championchip. A-bunch times are +- 2h30 -2h35 for the 102-105 km. Not too sure about the Elites winning times, I think they were held up by a taxi accident or something
  6. Correction: You rode Emporors in Sub 3. You did it in 2:59:91
  7. This year's CCMNC was my first ever road race, so I didn't know the differences between all these roadie timing companies. I'll anyway need a Racetec for Amashova. Thanks
  8. Hi Gerald, seeing that the race is now timed by Racetec, is there still a use for my Championchip? Would I need to purchase a Racetec - chip?
  9. Maybe because it costs less than biltong and nuts. However, they don't state the weight content of the R329 tub, so it is difficult to compare.
  10. I think you are exaggerating how little 5 mm is... Don't want to know how you measure 5 inches..
  11. I am leaving Rietvlei @ 08h30. There will be quite a few people riding the normal Lido Loop so I doubt we'll be alone.
  12. Thank you Dr., but that session is still completely HR based. Are there any power related goals that a cyclist should be able to obtain within those intervals to be competitive? Example: A world tour sprinter should be able to develop 1200 watts for 10 seconds, a climber should be able to generate 350 watts for 20 minutes. Power unlike HR does not have a threshold, which can be used to compare different athletes and their forms and fitness.
  13. I dont know what all the fuss is about, just strap your HR Belt to your dog for 30 minutes. My Italian Greyhound sleeps at 160 bpm. Bobs your smoothie
  14. Dr Swart, would you please be able to release a typical intensity session you suggest to a XCO pro cyclist during peak season? I would love to see a workout for Phil Buys in his final preperation week before Rio. 20 min warmup @ 250 W? 3 x 5 min interval @ 400 W? 20 min cooldown @ 150 W?
  15. Thanks Gerald, I would really like to join. It is very nice of you and GW to open the event to other cyclists.
  16. https://www.strava.com/activities/504093907 The new sections is the long out and back route shown in the ride.
  17. AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH YISSSSSSSSSSS
  18. Just how much *** can a bunch of English guys talk?
  19. Pretoria- Die Moot. There are some nice trails which the Friends of the Magalies built!
  20. Theres a saying that the skill gap between a 18-handicap golfer and a scratch-golfer is just as large as the gap between a scratch-golfer and a pro. I would argue there is a similar comparison between a Tour sprinter, a 2h50min Argus rider and a five-hour-hopeful riding his first Argus.
  21. Ladies & Bicycles : 6458 posts so far in 2014. #justsaying
  22. Today is a perfect day for cycling in Gauteng. My bike took me to our farm. (Vaal Dam in the background)
  23. I'm disappointed.. 3 days coverage and not one expo-girl photo?
  24. Lower Orange or Vaal?
  25. It was me, I mentioned to the racing officials before and after the race that I was gonna ride the 26 km with my GF (it was her first race), but they never adjusted my time/race. As I crossed the finish line I even told them not to scan my SAS board, but they probably didn't notice/care.
