  1. Mine only synced this morning. Strange that it took so long.
  2. I'm having the same problem. My Garmin Connect (Garmin Edge 500) activities all of a sudden not synching with my Discovery Vitality Active Rewards. Thursday is the last time it worked. Anyone else experiencing the same problem?
  3. Why waste time & money on ex-dopers by testing them more often? Simply just ban them for life from events. Problem easily solved without spending a cent. I for one will not enter any event where convicted dopers are allowed to enter, it does not matter how nice or pretty or big the event is and will continue to encourage my buddies and everyone else to the same.
  4. Done, thanks leroux! I need two more to also join my vitality team, pop me a PM with your email address, I've also been making my points every week since I started with it.

  6. Mike Posthumus did upload his Strava but looks like he forgot to start his gps at the start and only started it a bit later up the road from the show grounds.
  7. Fantastic event, friendly people and beautiful town. Good air-conditioning provided on route, with some mistyfiers provided through Middelwater & Meiringspoort, some strong winds to blow you dry + extra 10km as a bonus which we didn't need to pay extra on our entry fees. Had to stay in the bundles to save energy. No legs after 140km. Poep soup provided at the final two waterpoints helped me to the top of Swartberg and the finish in Prince Albert. Riders on cyclocross bikes definately had an advantage, bliksems. A must do event, again and again and again, well organised and well worth the 1165km x 2 trip. This event is going to get big! Perhaps hold the Medio Fondo on the Sunday so we can ride both https://www.strava.com/segments/11952158

  9. Oops, wrong thread
  10. I have absolutely no interest in the length of anyone else's wire
  11. You sure you did not trip over your wire while it was charging
  12. Nee dis die deworm way
  13. You took the words right out of my mouth!
  14. Not to be funny or anything, but you haven't been riding much the Last 4 Weeks, that's why your Hr is so high
  15. 4hrs a week 70< avg should not be a problem, that's considering an hour a day and rest in between for recovery during a weeks training. 8hrs+ a week avg will be more difficult to achieve for me which I doubt I will be able to achieve with 70%< HR week on week for say a month or two as I'll need more recovery time to keep my HR above 70 on each ride. Not sure even for how long I will be able to maintain 70%< HR on a single ride.
  16. Out of interest, how many hours a week do you ride for Myles?
  17. 70%, 80%, or 90% is no issue, for 5 minutes 10 minutes 30 minutes or an hour? The question is, for how long and for how many consecutive days? Is it good to train like that every day, logically I personally don't think so.
  18. The problem I have with Discovery is the way it's implemented, in short: They should award more points when your HR is above 50% the longer you ride. Riding for a long time 70< HR of your max everyday is ridiculous, will take you that much longer to recover and I think dangerous. They should also award you for every ride for that day, not choose just one. This way we all get fit by training more and longer! Simply put e.g. 50< HR for 30 minutes = 50 points 50< HR for 60 minutes = 100 points 50< HR for 90 minutes = 150 points 50< HR for 120 minutes = 200 points 50< HR for 150 minutes = 250 points 50< HR for 180 minutes = 300 points 50< HR for 210 minutes = 350 points 50< HR for 240 minutes = 400 points 50< HR for 270 minutes = 450 points 50< HR for 300 minutes = 500 points 50< HR for 330 minutes = 550 points 50< HR for 360< minutes = 600 points Nothing to do with freedom of speech, it's common sense and my two zim cents
