    I know this topic is old but maybe can also just throw in something here, coming back from Centurion to Bloem and I was also very wary of riding on the N1. I was to used too cycling in the Cradle in GP, but as said before it is much more safer to go cycling on the N1 and the cyclist behave on the N1 and yes once peak hits )shool holidays and December holidays) we stay clear of the N1 just too busy then. The road in Bloem is full of potholes and traffic is a nightmare in town for cyclists, we also often ride on the Petrusburg/Kimberley road. I wish we could get a loop like in The Cradle this side then it would be a real pleasure too go out for a ride.
  2. Yeah same comment as they above, not a lot of trails in Bloemfontein. Me coming back to Bloem has not been great, I stayed close to Northern Farms in Centurion so the routes here is not great for some just off road riding. Once went to Lochs Hoek with my wife and son and my wife fell as that is forsure not a beginner course and the grass is overgrown. Some of the guys here say that Woodlands have great trails but can you go ride there without having to know someone that stays in the estate?
  3. Ah thank you will do that so now that that is sorted now just to get some training done
  4. Have not received my magazine yet, but when my friend asked how will I be going to Cape Town I realized that time is running out, so started with one ride so far just too loosen the legs. Now I have a question as I started looking for accommodation and its a problem already, I can get place at Grand West casino. Will I be able to get to the starting point with no hassle or will the N2 going in town be closed? Last year I know it was closed because people came back via that road.
  5. Yip forsure not I can vouch for that hehehehe, I did a 6:44 last year and after that I didnt even have feeling in the MNR anymore.
  6. Anyone know where I can still get the Rudy Project Genetyk italian Edition still? I love the look of them but cant find them anywhere, or I am failing at google searching.
  7. You sir are correct this can be done, a guy that I know done this. He had cash to buy the car but instead financed the car with a residual as well and invested the cash. He made more money doing that and I couldnt believe it until he showed me his return on investment and all payments made on the car. So if I was in the position I would forsure also not buy a car cash, I never believed in giving deposit anyways.
  8. This will be my first time doing it and I want to know if the race really is "the fast one"? I have not trained for 2 weeks during December holidays and wonder if I will do in this race, not a very fast rider in the 1st place.

    Thanx for all the info guys really helped alot, at the end of the day I went for the Tom Tom multipsort bundle. I came across it on the ebucks store for R3999 but Im on the 40% discount and I had enoughe ebucks to pick it up for Ebucks 24 544 (=R 2 454.44). At that price I could just not leave it seeing that I just used ebucks to buy it so at the end of the day all that I bought with cash for R299 was the USB deskdock.

    The reason why I looked at the watches is because I want to start training for triathlon's next year, I really want to do a iron man once in my life.
  11. I also ordered mine and delivery will be this Friday, just down with the flu now so don't know if I will be riding this weekend.

    After also looking into it I realized that it is more for running, I cycle so yeah wont be going with the M400. I'm leaning more towards the Suunto Ambit 3 now, great watch but also pricey hehehe.

    You wanted exactly what I wanted from the watch as well, and I am looking for cadence sensor as well. I will look at the Suunto as well as I already know that using my phone will not satisfy me and then I would have spend money on getting accessories that I will not use anymore. Thanx for the info
