Hi there I'm looking for a 2017 Cape Epic Team Entry. Please contact me if you are (or know of someone) looking to sell their team entry. Thanks! Willem

That was one sweet ride. Enjoy Chris!

Stop wasting your time with HR training. Get a power meter or ride on RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion).

EXCELLENT! EXCELLENT! EXCELLENT! EXCELLENT! EXCELLENT! EXCELLENT! EXCELLENT! PM me if you want more details.

My GT Zaskar Golden Bike after some changes and upgrades... Frame: GT Zaskar Carbon Fork: Fox F32 RL (Remote Lock-Out) Handlebar: Easton Monkey Lite SL Stem: Easton EA90 Seatpost: Easton EC90 Saddle: Selle Italia SLR XP Kit Carbonio Drive-train: Shimano XTR Pedals: Crank Brothers Egg Beaters (4ti is on its way!) Wheels: ZTR Podium MMX Rim and DT Swiss 240s Hub (Front Wheel) ZTR Podium MMX Rim and PowerTap SL+ Disc Hub (Rear Wheel)

I will second that...

Obviously wasn't appreciated. Brilliant!

Best Recovery = Mule ReFuel bar - it tastes great and it works! It has no added nasty stuff either - all natural!

I took the GT Golden Bike to my LBS to be weighed... The result = 9.40kg! Thanks for all the compliments guys, I really do appreciate it!wiMPers2009-10-13 11:30:42

Thanks Jules! Is this a trick question? I don't know yet. On the one hand I feel like putting the bike in a glass cabinet, and on the other hand it begs to be raced! I will probably end up riding it.

Thanks! I think my time was in the region of 3:47. I lost the CPU of my PowerTap along the way so I do not have my exact time.

I have also noticed it. I had a look at all the other Golden Bikes that was awarded to the winners and none of them have golden Mavic SLR. They must have "photo shopped" it.

Don't know the weight yet. Will take it to my LBS to have it weighed. Compared to my Scott (Scale 20) it feels quite a bit lighter. Then again, my Scott is not the lightest with the PowerTap wheel on. Will post the weight asap.

I lost my heart somewhere along the route during the race. I raced my heart out for this bike!

Here it is, my new (golden) bike together with all the other merchandise...
