  1. I don't think its excessive - guided rides are generally alot more expensive. I've been looking of Strava for segments/routes but can't find much. I heard from someone that one of the farmers had been building a 30-40k route on the Morg's side. Does anyone know anything about this? Or can anyone point me to some maps as I'd like to avoid the dirt roads if possible.
  2. Here's some info I received from the peeps at Morg's: Morgan Bay Adventures Program INFO: Ruan Botes 079 639 4293 or Liam Rudman 072 278 4914 10 Thu Sunrise Body Shape Fitness class 06H00 on grass in front of Morgan Bay Hotel R50 pp 12 Sat Guided Wild Coast Trail 60Km Ride into Transkei Meet at Kei Mouth Pont 7AM Sharp Min 5 Riders, Max 12 R80 pp (Includes Medal) 14 Mon Sunrise Body Shape Fitness Class 06H00 on grass in front of Morgan Bay Hotel R50 pp 14 Mon Sundowner 5KM and 10km Trail Run 06H30 on Grass in front of Morgan Bay Hotel R100 pp (Include Shirt) 15 Tue Guided Wild Coast Trail 60Km Ride into Transkei Meet at Kei Mouth Pont 7AM Sharp Min 5 Riders, Max 12 R80 pp (Includes Medal) 16 Wed Sunrise Trail Run 5KM and 10KM 06H00 on grass in front of Morgan Bay Hotel R100 pp (Include Shirt) 16 Wed Sundowner Body Shape Fitness Class 18H00: On Grass in front of Morgan Bay Hotel R50pp 17 Thu Guided Wild Coast WILD RIDE 80KM (Only for the Super fit) Meet at Kei Mouth Pont 7AM Sharp R150 (Include Shirt) 19 Sat Hagmorkei Event Start: Haga Haga at 08H30 Distances: Run 14KM and 21K (R100) Include Shirt Cycle 20KM and 50KM (R150) Include Shirt Pre-Entries: at Morgan Bay Hotel Reception 21 Mon Guided Wild Coast 15KM Trail Run into Transkei No walkers, need to be able to run at 5min/KM Meet at Kei Mouth Pont 7AM Sharp R80pp 22 Tue Guided Wild Coast Trail 60Km Ride into Transkei Meet at Kei Mouth Pont 7AM Sharp Min 5 Riders, Max 12 R80pp 22 Tue Sundowner Body Shape Fitness Class 18H00 on Grass in front of Morgan Bay Hotel R50pp 23 Wed Guided Transkei 10Km Walk Meet At Kei Mouth Pond 7Am Sharp R80pp 23 Wed Sundowner Body Shape Fitness Class 18H00 on grass in front Of Morgan Bay Hotel R50pp 26 Sat Sunrise Body Shape Fitness Class 06H00 on grass in front of Morgan Bay Hotel R50pp 28 Mon Sundowner Fun Run 5KM and 10KM 18H30 on grass in front of Morgan Bay Hotel R50pp 28 Mon Sunrise Body Shape Fitness Class 06H00 on grass of Morgan Bay Hotel R50pp 29 Tue Guided Wild Coast Ride 75KM Meet at Kei Mouth Pond 07H00 Sharp R100pp 30 Wed Sundowner Body Shape Fitness Class 06H00 on grass in front of Morgan Bay Hotel 31 Thu Guided Wild Coast Walk into Transkei Meet at Kei Mouth Pond 07H00 Sharp R100 pp January 2 Sat GT2i Road Cycle Challenge Start: 07H00 Morgan Bay Hotel 20KM R100 30KM R120 60KM R130 80KM R150 100KM R170 All NON CSA Licence Rides must Get R35 Day Licence 4 Mon Sunrise Trail Run 5KM and 10KM 06H00 on grass in front of Hotel R50pp 5 Tue Guided Wild Coast Trail Ride 60KM Meet at Kei Mouth Pond 07H00 Sharp R80pp
  3. I used cytomax years ago - its simply too sweet for my taste. If Cadence is like it then its not for me either. When you first taste Heed you think you got the mixture wrong as it is very very subtle.
  4. Since Hammer are out of stock of Heed for the next month I need an alternative for shorter rides. Can anyone who's tried Heed and Cadence Energy comment on the sweetness of Cadence and what flavour to get? One of the main reasons I use Heed is its very subtle taste so if Cadence tastes like 'Energade' then its probably not for me.
  5. They will traversing some of the winefarms in constantia - apparently coming out somewhere near the Nek.
  6. Having done crossfit for about 10 months I've recently decided to stop. I've enjoyed it thoroughly but I'm finding it conflicts with cycling - especially if you increase your riding intensity/volume. Even after months of doing crossfit there are still sessions where my body is seriously fatigued for days. At my box I have no control over what they've got planned for session (which is good - keeps things interesting) however it often meant I arrived Monday evening to do a sufferfest of squat type exercises which means doing intervals Tues/Wed very difficult. My second issue with CF is that not everyone at CF is ever going to compete at the CF games.. If you only go to the box twice a week then there will be exercises/movements that you only get round to once a month. So trying to teach me to do a walking handstand is just a waste of time - I'll never master it and quite frankly have no ambitions to walk on my hands! For variety and the "off" season its great but if you're on limited time then there is no substitute for the bike. I'd be interested in hearing how some of the others that do crossfit fit it all in and how they structure their week.
  7. Hi, I'm considering a new IDT and see the CWC has the Bushido bluetooth at R10500 which seems like a good price. From what I've read on this thread most you are pro the Powerbeam. The problems most of you mention are related to software/lock in etc. I'm not overly concerned about lock in and getting data out is not really a big deal for me since I've got a power meter which I'll continue to with my Garmin. I havent seen any comments on which IDT has a better "feel"? I havent ridden on any of these trainers so would appreciate some feedback. I currently use the first Cyclops Fluid - I've had it since 2005 and it hasnt given me a moments trouble. It doesnt however "feel" like the road. thanks.
  8. How does this compare to trans baviaans? Obviously longer, and hotter but what else?
  9. Hi, are these new programs based on heart rate or power?
  10. My personal choice is to stay with wide bars.. But its her bike.. When I upgraded my wife (medium frame, 170cm height) from a 26er Anthem to a 29er Anthem she found the bars too wide so I changed it out.
  11. It looked like there were many more deep section wheels this year. How much of a difference does this really make?

  13. Ride the race next year - you'll have lots of people in front of you to show you the way!
  14. Hi, the quarter turn clip mechanism edges broke off yesterday when my Edge 500 popped out of one of those generic extendable holders.. (that will teach me!). I phoned the Jhb office and they won't give me an indication of how much to fix (even if I send them a photo). Did they replace yours for R1200 or was that the cost of replacing the back of the unit? thanks.
  15. you are not alone.
