I use OTR Designs... Stephen Fowler is the owner. I'm currently having 3 custom kits made, so I doubt if a small number would play a huge role. PM me for his contact details
It seems as if registration is gonna be a very busy place... everybody fighting to get re-seeded. If everyone gets their way, there won't be many strong riders pushing the bus from behind
Thanks Ryan's dad and all the other guys for the company around Kyalami. It was awesome meeting you okes!! Who knew that Kyalami would feel so different on a bicycle than on a Yamaha R1
Think i will have to take the bicycle to Kyalami tomorrow... This lekka weather is simply to nice not to enjoy Starting time is 16:15 (although i might only be there at 16:30 ish) Will also be taking my light (if needed) to carry on a while longer on the track
You can also try Iconic Sports. Daryl is a great guy and very helpful and creates personalised training and diet programs. He lives in the Randburg area but keeps in contact all the time via email and Skype daryl@iconicsports.co.za
Did you still do the D2D as well? I was out with a few mates doing a training ride in the cradle yesterday. We went the oposite direction of the D2D race and saw all the bunches coming past. Also saw a lot of guys repairing punctures. I must say the conditions were a lot better yesterday than what it was on Saturday in Benoni.... sho!
Yeah then i definitely saw you... i was the struggling oke with the Blue Label kit on . You guys came past me a few km's before the end and i just didn't have the legs to join in with the group.
We were simply out training in the cradle and riding the opposite direction of you guys in the D2D race. I saw a lot of guys repairing punctures?? Was it that bad throughout the whole race?
It was without a doubt the worst windy conditions i've ever experienced (maybe i'm not too experienced then :-)) Boy was it a cold and windy start, with my fingers going numb from the cold and even gearing became a challenge. The winning time for AL was just over 3hours... mine was 3:23 as the wind took it's toll on me unfortunately... Like you guys said... the pancakes from the church tannies was an absolute blessing after the race.
Entry done yesterday... I think right in the middle of all the masses trying to do the same Also tried about 5 times to pay, and eventually succeeded at about 3pm (from 1pm). Got double billed and submitted my enquery to the organisers this morning. They apparently will handle all the double billed queries as from today. Good thing is that my entry is booked and secure
Yip, i'm also a virgin Race for Victory rider this year. I've heard horror stories about SBR so i'm kinda glad it doesn't go through there anymore. Looking forward to this event!!
It seems as if tomorrow is going to be a hard working ride in the Benoni August winds, and it seems that the Dome2Dome riders won't have any better luck on Sunday either... Scotty Are you offering or just saying about those pancakes and boeries???
And those open plot and farm areas outside Benoni is OPEN... the slightest breeze of wind there and it feels as if you have glue on your tyres. The wind always feels as if it's coming right from the front, doesn't matter how many turns you take on the road. Let's hope it's all good tomorrow
Just went to collect my number at CL Fourways... and I was thinking that the weather man must have made a mistake when they predicted a high of 11deg for Saturday... It's such a warm day outside today...
I was waiting for you to say the "outside" of your knee, as that is where i had an issue which was ITBFS. On the inside of the knee, i'm not to sure. Hopefully somebody else has the know how on that issue and position of pain. Ice is always a good thing and assist in getting rid of inflimation. You pretty much follow the RICE advice... Rest - Ice - Compression - Elevation
