Been riding Raceface carbon bars for last year. No problems and lekker stiff

Used to only ride S7 T'Equipe. Recently bought a couple of new model MIlle's and have to say that I'm not wild about the low cut upfront. For R3.5. Gone to Northcliff and purchased a couple of Monton bibs which I really rate and are less that have the price. Ego the comments made earlier about local brands ... do want to support them but have not found a really good one yet .... maybe I just have a difficult backside???

1500 is on the very low end for me. Depending on conditions I used to get 1800 - 2800 on a XT / XTR chain. Have now switched to XX1 ... they def last longer (~3500 - 4000km) but over R2k a pop PS XX1 is 12sp whereas XT/XTR experience was 11sp

My opinion is that you have good components (assuming whole drivetrain is XX1/01) on an outdated frame. I would use the components for something else

Wappo talking about the race and decision

Resetting the device does not delete anything of Garmin Connect

Interesting that no one posted their brag stats here yet ... ek se maar net

I have not ridden there so can't comment on how hard it is to see that trail / path to the left. Mireille is my wife. I was on the phone to her as she went back to try and find the path and only when I assured her that it should be there she found it. That was in the dark and her brain was pretty mushy at the time but still ... clearly not very obvious She also said that at other tricky points Alex had put some markers ... maybe that could have prevented some of the trouble

Let me take a wild guess ...... you're a lawyer?

Don't think Alex will let you finish too late as he cannot assume responsibility for people being still en route well after the event has finished

Three girls are riding together ... by my calculations they will miss cut off by 30-60 minutes ... still an absolute monumental achievement

She would be 100% fine with that. Gonna be touch and go for them if they ride straight through.

So who will the last rider to come in within time limit?

Alex does not do extensions

She switched tracker and new one is not picking up. She riding with Chantal.

And they are rolling again .... pfff dot watching is stressful ????

My wife is riding together with Chantal ... they agreed to wait a bit for the wind to die and then go to Britstown. The plan was to start at 4 again but seems they are still at WP4

I keep thinking that as well ...... would be the first world stage rider to take on the Munga so would have been a nice comparison to the local machines

This ^^^^^. If you watch too often it ca drive you mad how positions shift

Know a couple of GOATS are involved with the product. Which one are you referring to?

I've heard good reports on these energy bars and would like to try them but can only find international stores offering packages of R1000 Does anyone know a local store which sells these?

I'm familiar with the route you've got to and around the dam: It is pretty busy in terms of traffic but has a wide shoulder and I have no problem riding it. The bit you have after the bridge across the dam on the way back I do not know but it looks interesting. Please post here if it worked out and what you thought of it.

Yip ride from Wldevy and gravel rig will do ....corrugation is a bit testing but not too long

Yip, done it twice.. is a lekker gravel ride around the canals at Harties

Met die vraag bevestig je alles wat de belgen over ons zeggen
