  2. how long do you plan on riding? how long did u ride getaway the w'end?
  3. Getaway had about 500m of climbing over about 27ish km. this race has about 1300m of climbing over 45ish km. not too tough but loads tougher than the getaway we had over the w'end.
  4. What a nice turn up today considering the weather. Some rain, a fair amount of mud and interesting single track made it worth it. I clocked 27km and just under 500m ascent. Bike washed already. Took me a while to get all the mud off. In fact, it took me longer to wash the bike than it took to ride 2day lol.... Now to wash the shoes.
  5. it seems the cost for the mtb race is R200 shot it lerouc
  6. fine breede is on this day boet but its a bit of a drive tho'
  7. my first ultra went very well for me. Paced myself for a bronze and finished in 5hrs53. Funny enuf, i still had lots left in the legs when i finished. I really enjoyed it. The hardest part for me was running down chappies. Midway down, i reduced my stride and it helped 100%.
  8. Thanks Myles, i am leaning towards the canis indeed.
  9. my conti x king weeping like a baby too. need to top-up sealant every second week now. had the raceking at the back and tossed it as because the entire side walls thread was exposed and also had to top up sealant every 2 weeks. my bike is set up for marathon fun races but i ride trail when not "racing". I replaced my rear tyre with racing ralph but still deciding on a front tyre. what tyre would be similar to the x-kings? I will never buy conti protection tyres again. they just dont hold up. they tend to die way before the tread has gone.
  10. Why do I get the feeling you want the peeps to enter tru-cape so that you can have skyfall all to yourself B20. Sneaky u ☺
  11. With all the good skyfall reviews I cudn't help entering. Cannot wait!!! Bring on those socks Wessel!
  12. Friday is only tomorrow guys! i bet you all thunk it was Friday today, yes?
  13. what is the limit I wonder! If so many top riders are doping then surely the winners of most big races are doping too. A big time cyclist that also got caught doping for many years said, if you want to win, you need to be faster than your "doped" competitors. Hence to win, you also need to be "doped" I know of a very good cyclist, however not a professional at all that also dopes. He doesn't even come close to making podium but he loves doping, says it gives him the edge! I mean WTF????
  14. is this really really really worth the bucks? i would love to do it, but damn, R530!!!
  15. at this price its no brainer that most of the guys will be doing the fine breede.
  16. What's with all the haters? with all the previous doping threads on this hub, we already established that all the top seeded guys dope
  17. Had a nice chuckle now. Nice going Rouxenator!!!
  18. So what do u guys do with ur old helmets? Give it to ur postman/gardener? Now I'm worried sick, I gave my 2007 model I inherited from a friend 2 years ago to the postman last year.
  19. any1 else notice how the Devil's Peak Pale Ale as well as the Kings Blockhouse IPA taste drastically changed since they started only bottling the 340ml bottles? Dunno if it's just me I don't know if the First Light also changed. All you craft beer guru's out there, a question to you, is it normal for beer creations to change that drastically? I know wine does year after year. If so, does the run-of-the-mill stuff also change year in and year out?
