  1. Oh, we have the space, the Chinese even keeps her spinning bike inside, but that's the limit for her. I already lost the battle on the dogs (they sleep inside, the one on our bed now) so I wont even go down the bikes inside route. Also, I have insurance and the premium wont change if the bikes are in the garage or inside.
  2. Astana going to apply more Movistar style tactics like they did on the road to Zoncolan? It never ceases to amaze me when a team does so much work and then be so completely absent in the finale.
  3. If my bikes lived in the house, I'd be the one living in the garage...
  4. Same. It's a good cheap solution.

    947 RideJoburg route

    When I was a nominal pro at best, my one team mate used to joke that to find a hill in gauteng you needed to look for a highway overpass. I will agree that unless you pop, there's no hill in GP that even needs a small chainring on a road bike. (is Suikerbosrand in GP? I might have a proviso...)
  7. Get added to the whatsapp group. I'll pm you Craig's number.
  8. Have you seem how many places for sale on the internet have those pics where the person is reflected in the bathroom mirror.
  9. There's some good tips here: https://www.privateproperty.co.za/advice/property/articles/tips-for-taking-photos-that-will-get-your-home-sold/7055?gclid=CjwKCAjwtJ2FBhAuEiwAIKu19ldX0J8_BdIy6N12cnXnaQ51WXj6HiluuwrUcn8gkCCz8IYP3RHyfRoCFmIQAvD_BwE I was an estate agent for a heartbeat, I'm trying to find our in-house guide for you if I still have it.
  10. More for open house than photos, but check what your house smells like. Even get an outside nose in for the job. Things might seem fine to you, but non-smokers or non-pet people will turn their nose and bond away from (what they consider) a stinky house.
  11. Don't forget the garden. Autumn and winter is a notoriously difficult time to sell your house in SA, as the gardens look like ****. First impressions and all that.
  12. Is the pomp for soft training then?
  13. Yeah, I gues most guys are riding way too fast there for it to be viable from the scum's perspective, so I guess they've given up.
  14. Between Clearwater and Finch (that empty veld between Clearwater and the substation), heading from Kempton to Benoni. A couple of guys had a near miss there a few weeks ago. Seems like the guys hid in the veld, pop out threw some stones/bricks and tried to grab guys.
  15. Probably the bike is that lime green/fluo yellow Scott standard colour.
  16. It's a good warm up. Just be careful of the hijack spot on Atlas and on Tulbagh in Glen Marais. Guy was jacked on Tulbagh recently, and last Saturday I was nearly a victim. Fortunately I stopped at the VDS gate and the guards assisted me. Got me a escort with a guarding vehicle down Atlas.
  17. Nice training ride. What the problem is?
  18. The group at the Shell garage will probably be too fast for you at the moment by the sounds of things. Most of the guys trek across to Bl and ride with them week days and weekends. It's not a bad option, there's always different distances and speeds to choose from.
  19. What do you mean as opposed to a road bike? Are you asking between an e-mtb and a road bike, or an e-road bike and a road bike?
  20. Some of the guys were just never out of breath, no matter how hard they rode...
  21. He was out here with the Kazakh national team, and my team here rode with them almost daily for a month or two.
  22. Or just the ability to select up to two sizes at the same time?
