  1. Who will be timing the Campus2Campus?
  2. So is tomorrow 4:30 or 5am again? I now know where the Bushwillow complex is, so i can meet you guys there rather. Definitely keen on another ride tomorrow morning.
  3. Wiggins is a good climber yes, but it seems as if he always starts suffering a bit when the pace gets a bit to fast on the hills. He keeps a good momentum going, but as soon as there is an interference on the pace, he tends to struggle to get back into tempo... maybe he proves me wrong
  4. He is built for speed this dude
  5. I'd much rather take my chances in the Lic group then... i hope i would qualify (do have race lic)
  6. Jatho Thanks a mil for the group ride this morning. It was an awesome chilled ride and good to meet all you okes. I will definitely be joining you guys regularly. Cheers
  7. I'm REALLY contemplating on entering this race... pondering pondering
  8. Ja i understand it was a very wet and cold start to the race. Pretty much the same as yesterday, although yesterday it did clear up nicely
  9. I'm in stiches about this, BWAAAAHAHAHAHA!!!!
  10. I managed to catch the last few kilometres of the opening stage yesterday, with Elia Viviani taking the opening stage victory. Mark Cavendish had a good sprinting setup but then got boxed in and couldn't get out of a bad spot. Real nasty crash with only a few metres to go saw a large amount of bunch riders going down, which was the result of a bit of pushing and shoving amongst the group.
  11. For what it's worth, i spoke to a client of mine the other day... just random chat and he mentioned that he sufferes from restless legs. I have no clue what it is and my knowledge on this stretches as far as hearing an advert on the radio endorsed by Zola Budd. This dude mentioned to me that he drinks red pepper?? Yip, that is what he said, red pepper... says its sorts him out for a long while but then needs to drink it again after a few weeks or so. How that would taste... sho
  12. Your seeding index would also need to be of such a nature which will allow you to race together with the Lic Vets. If your seeding is not up to scratch yet, you can still race in the open/seeded category until you've managed to bring your seeding down (below 20)
  13. I can't wait for my first Amashova!! Looking forward to it
  14. One of the girls that work with me was the medic on the schene at the SBR crash of the elites. She mentioned that it was quite a bad crash, with a number of elites that got really hurt from broken arms to fractured scull. The guys apparently went off the road and landed up in the bushes on the other side of the fence. Eina Speedy recovery to the injured guys
  15. I'm driving through from JHB... early morning start
  16. The AL group i rode in finished with 3:09 (the winners got 2:57)... because of my lovely luck with 2 punctures, i rolled in with 3:33
  17. Aah bud, i'm so glad you're part of the hub family and actually saw the post. I really do owe you a beer or something (together with replacing the tube of course!) Thanks for the compliment about the bike. I waited for you after the race but didn't see you. You were an absolute life saver!
  18. I hope the wind has died down in Potch for this race... The past few weeks racing in Gauteng has been hectic!!
  19. Double punture at the 80km mark with only one spare tube with me... That sucks! Thank you VERY MUCH to the CL rider who stopped and gave me his spare tube. I lost about 20-30mins on the side of the road... Eish!
  20. PM sent to Jatho... Thanx a mil
  21. Jatho Are you guys part of the Edenglen crew, or simply a bunch of social random guys? Can i PM you my cell number to get added to that WhatsApp group?
  22. Registration and final entries are at the Zwarkoppies pumping station tomorrow from 9am - 1pm
