Attempting half marathon with the mtb

Hi Everyone I'm looking for a road race for my wife to do this month. Looking for a novice type of race in terms of climbing. This will be her first race and only race before she tackles the Cape Cycle challenge... We live in Gauteng and saw the following two races on BicyclingSA's website... Only looking to do the 60-ish distances. Might do both! http://germistonclassic.co.za/ http://www.cycleevents.co.za/road-events/dis-chem-ride-for-sight-2016/ Any knowledge and or profiles are welcome on these races or any other that I may have missed. P.s Where can I find slicks for my MTB in Gauteng? Please and thank you! A concerned and loving MTB'ing husband

Standing at 29kg lost over four years. I once was 102kg with a 1.70m frame. All with cycling and regulating what I eat.

Riding for the Pink Ladies then?

The 947 is almost upon us. So how about showing us your kit that you'll be riding in? Thinking about going with the Johnny Cash look... black jersey, black socks, black bib, black shoes, grey helmet... Maybe not smart with the heat! Might throw on some red gloves.

Hubbers First question The best LBS in Pretoria to get my bike serviced? And the price. Second question According to you, the best LBS in die Jakaranda Stad in terms of service, vibe, prices etc. Go! Go! Go!

Hi guys. Been on vacation for a week, perks of being a teacher. Binged on cycling and series. Here's a few I would recommend: 1. Narcos (a must watch!!!) 2. Wayward pines (a bit frustrating) 3. Shameless(dark and sometimes disturbing) 4.Zoo (ignore the bad acting) 5. Walking dead season 6 starts tonight.

Hi guys How's Groenkloof during the week in terms of safety? Always been there on weekends.

Rest. Rest. And some more rest... ACC and airmune 3 times a day. Been out for 3 weeks and returning this weekend! Get well!

Honda CRV '96. My ol' girl is having a tough month. That's the price at Honda Hatfield. Fitting not included.... Little Ape Sh*t pricing if you ask me. Going to see if I can seal it at Silverton.

Looking forward to getting on my beast and riding the weekend away. Hectic week. Car broke down = R5500 Radiator has a crack thats growing.... another 5000 ronds.... Feeling jumpy and tense. Almost a week since I had two wheel therapy! Enjoy the weekend guys and girls

As of today our fair little purple city has gone ape sh#t!!! Again. December in Pretoria was heaven. As a shopper, as a diner and most of all a CYCLIST! While half of Gauteng were busy pissing off the slow paced WP folk, the people here had a ball on the roads. Until today.. I clocked off early and decided to go for a quick ride with my girlfriend's place as n quick stop over to pick up my wallet. We live 8km apart... And death was all around. Motorist taking stupid chances just to get into a lane that's moving a litter faster. People jumping stop streets and robots. A guy making a u-turn in Duncan almost hit me from behind when he realized he had turned up a one way... Luckily I followed his actions. I had to pull on my breaks and slammed into the paving. That's when I snapped. I gave a loud whistle and shouted "oi!! Watch what you are doing. For f#ck sakes". He stopped to apologized and ask not to swear at him... He went on to say that I overreacted and that I would've been fine if he had indeed hit me.... WTF??? I only managed 20km for the day. Rather safe than sorry... Unfortunately at my riding pleasure's expense! It's a jungle out there fellow cyclist! Please be careful?

Jackers don't own the roads! Face the fear and be vigilant. If you know the dodgy areas, you'll be safe.

Remember hearing the news and thinking it can't be real! He was and is my HERO!!

On a farm close to Dullstroom and I can see the trails in the valley below... Washing away!!!

I bought one of these FOUR years ago. Stil works very well! Just remember to remove before every wash. Bargain!

Hi guys Looking for a light. Only gonnaa use it every now and then on early rides. Looking at the Magicshine MJ-816E on Easybike. Anyone know if it's any good? Thanks!

Hi guys Looking to cycle my vacation away in Pretoria. Jan-tuis-bly-se-karretjie kinda vibes! How's 'bout giving me some routes and/or trail tips. PLEASE!! Bored of my daily cycling routes. Strava, endomondo, descriptions or whatever. Lay it on me! Cool beans!

Can't show a pic because I just bought it. But spent half the afternoon on Easybike. Having a 40% off sale on all Shimano. Bought a BB and a chain. All in all a steel with shipping included!! Go have a look.

So I bought myself some bar end yesterday. Paid R99 for them at Solomons. Awesome specials going on. A steal I would say. Tried them this mornining and they're great! It's Serfras. Subtle and very light. Thanks for the input guys!

Help me out hubbers. How usefull are stub ends? Is it cool? Why do we use it? Does it help with climbs? Am I right when I say its useless on a 29er? What if I have a 26"? What is the true meaning of life? So many questions, let's stay on topic! Good times.

Hi guys. My parents are moving to George next year. How does the LBS weight up? How many are there and which is the best? Want to know for future visits. Fanks!

I had a helmet that I used for about two years. Had a few dents, one being really deep after a massive fall. I replaced it and the day after replacing it, I came down at 72kmph... The new one burst in two pieces!! Wonder what would have happend if I didn't replaced it. Rather save than sorry!!!

Non-cyclist's way of thinking towards us are a scary thing. It shouldn't be about survival out there. We don't want to own the roads, we want to share!
