  1. and here I thought I was the only 1 going through HR monitors like there's no tomorrow. Been through a number of Garmin monitors, some other no name brands busy killing a POLAR H10. Absolutely hate the tiny screws on the Garmin HR monitors which seem to only be good to use once. I see the Garmin Dual has tiny torque screws on it, hopefully these are better. Can't even recommend a specific HR monitor because they all seem to die. Would rate the POLAR H9 or H10 better than the Garmin ones though, never tried a Wahoo. Magene seem to make decent stuff for a good price. Look for one that does Bluetooth & Ant+ that would be my advise
  2. I flew back from Europe last year with an empty bike bag. The bike bag was the type that's just cloth so it can fold into about half of it's size. Put tape around it and that was it. When checking it in they did request that I take to the oversized luggage section but it arrived in SA without any problems. In SA it was put on the conveyer belts with the other suitcases.
  3. The lost 1 of my packages for a few days but then found it and delivered it. If you have a valid tracking / waybill number then they should be able to track it.
  4. Weather Conditions looking good for tomorrow. Good Luck to all !!! Have a fast but SAFE race !!!
  5. I'm just in the E (no V for me)
  6. @Frosty What bunch you starting in ?
  7. I entered last week and my seeding was correct, up 1 group from last year
  8. The Edge 830 (and probably the 530) have proper batteries on them, never taken mine to 0% but they last much longer than any other previous Edge. Since yours isn't charging properly and you doing an "upgrade" via Garmin then it makes sense to pay the extra $$$ and get the 840.
  9. The problem has been there for a long time but Shimano just decided to ignore it - until now Because they were forced to sort it out now !!
  10. For the Endurance option you need to a achieve the following 60min at 70%-79% - 300 points 90min at 70%-79% - 450 points 120min at 70%-79% - 600 points 180min at 60%-69% - 600 points There's some other in-between options. What I normally aim for is a 3hrs ride on a Saturday & Sunday and that gives 1200 points - Weekly goal completed !!
  11. Don't have a choice but to use the PO. I did once order a bicycle light which came with a battery and that arrived via courier (came from Turkey) and was also here within 2 or 3 weeks. Would be great if AliExpress had to use Buffalo like Shein do but they haven't got there yet. Personally I've seen better service from PO this year, seems that closing majority of the branches has slightly help with processing packages
  12. I've ordered hundred's of items over the years. Here and there an item got lost, mainly because of the SA Post Office but AliExpress refunded me. Earlier this year I order some stuff and collected it from the Post Office 2 weeks later - thought the world was coming to an end. The next order took 4 weeks but some have take 2 - 3 months - mainly because of the Post Office.
  13. Well done on achieving 399 weeks !!!! I'm also somewhere in the 300+ weeks streak, they even spoiled me with a T-Shirt last year. I've been on the Endurance version where I need to get 1200 points to reach my goal, been like that for a good few years now.
  14. IMO - Wattbike was great when it came out but these days IDT have ERG mode and that is 1 of the best inventions ever making the Wattbike somewhat outdated. If you need the motivation and commitment from a class environment then rather stay with the Wattbike studio if you are able to motivate yourself and have the discipline to train then a Smart Trainer is definitely the way to go.
