  1. Hi, haven't been cycling for a very long time. I tried to see what my seeding is on cyclelab's seeding but can not access it. Is this still the right place to see what my seeding is or did it change?
  2. Thanx Road Rangers the cyclists really felt safe with your presence. Thumbs up for a job well done.
  3. DJVR don't fool yourself thinking the shorter route is easier. The shorter route is even worse because you get all those hills again in reverse order. I did the short route last year and we also had a lot of wind. It almost killed me.
  4. Event Name: 93.9 Auto Aplina Springs Cycle Race 2012 When: 8 September 2012 Where: Nigel Dam, Gauteng Category: Road This is the second time that we are hosting the 93.9 Auto Aplina Springs Cycle Race. It was a big success last year and hope to achieve the same this year. Online entries are closing today but there will also be line entries available. For more information on the race go to http://www.springsgirls.co.za/ and click on news. The route is very challenging and there are a few hills towards Balfour. Go to Event Page
  5. Thanx Dustbug I now have quite a lot of testing to do.
  6. Disc was checked no problem.
  7. Gauteng, East rand
  8. I don't know a lot about brakes and wheels as I am a lady but I know the one mechanic said he took some air out of the brakes but this did not solve the problem. The brakes was also adjusted but this also did not help. I will ride with the bike again and if I have the problem again take the wheel out and spin it to see if it perhaps are the bearings.
  9. I also thought that it might be the bearings. Was thinking of taking it to singeltrack to see if they can solve the problem but it is about 80km from where I live I don't want to name the shops which have already tried to fix it.
  10. Well the guy who tried to fix it rode the bike and said it is very strange. I knew that this would be the response but I really would like to know if anyone knows what could be wrong?
  11. I have a KHS alite 2000 bike with more or less only 800km on the clock. The problem is the front wheel and brake's. I have had it for repairs to 3 cycle shop already and every time they tell me the problem is now solved but I still have the problem. This is the problem. "it starts off fine but the longer you ride the tighter/slower the wheel gets the harder I have to pedal. It feels like riding uphill the hole time". Anybody knows what the problem can be? The one mechanic said that it is really very strange.
  12. <p>I am unable to upload images but just google 1 Kern Road, Nigel. If you come from Secunda on the N17 take the Witroad offramp and turn right onto Wit Road. Keep straight with Wit Road over 2 bridges towards Nigel, the first bridge is just as you turned onto Wit Road. Turn right at the second robot there is a golf course on your left hand side after the turn. If you come from JHB side on the N17 you will take the Wit Road offramp just after the school and turn left onto Wit Road. Hope this makes sense. The distance from Wit Road to the second robot is plus minus 15-18km.</p>
  13. <p>Nee van Springs af. Daar sal line entries ook gedoen kan word as ek reg kan onthou. Die straat se naam waar Coca Cola Shanduk is, is op die Nigel-Springs (M63) pad.</p>
  14. Regarding the markings on the MTB route our cycling club did not host the previous MTB races but thank you for the tip we are definitely going to look into it.
  15. For the event page go to http://www.springsgirls.co.za/ and click on news you will find all the information regarding the race on the schools website.
