  1. How about some respect to a deserving LADY?!?! She finished two or three minutes behind Ariane at the Clarens event. It will be an amazing experience for Cherise to be out with Ariane.
  2. Clarens from where we stayed for the Ashburton event. No actual riding pics - hey I was 'racing', no time for pictures....
  3. Hi. Is the route still open and accessable from the school? I haven't been up there the last year and a half. Any new extensions? It is a good challenging route
  4. Howzit (saying it with a stuffed nose...) I did a quick search regarding VITAMIN B SHOTS. No new posts. What is the latest about vitamin b shots? Easily available otc from the pharmacy/lbs? Need prescription? How much does it cost? Will it help if you are already sick? I am g@tvol - everytime I attempt increasing training intensity, I get sick.
  5. Most def. But then there is trail running... Now that is awesome. Seriously! Ps... Disclaimer - my failed attempt at trolling [emoji24] [emoji24] [emoji24] [emoji23]
  6. Love it when a plan comes together. Finished my own singletrack on the plot yesterday - tested it today. Awesome riding, albeit a bit short. (Only 5km loop). Hope to eventually meander onto adjacent properties to extend it.
  7. Yeah I reckoned he had to be some "vip" from the Republic of Cape Town. Have never heard of him. Government pays well. At least he is investing in a proper bike, and not some pigs...! Enjoy mr i-am-a-minister-of-sightseeing-and-eating-and-drinking
  8. Vermarc is by far the best - well for what I can afford. Assos is way out of my league. Craft is to uncomfortable - the padding/chamois has a very low rise in front. The wife flipped when I fitted it for her! "You are not going out like that! I can see everything..."
  9. Yeah It is _______________ but with a little blib in the middle with lots of sand. So more like _______~~_______~~~___^__^^___~~~________~~~_______________________________________ Oh, and two water "crossings". It is a very fast race. You can do some good interval training on this route
  10. Good morning The last week or so driving past the school I saw the gate leading up to the cement road is closed/may be locked. If it is locked, where can I access the singletrack over weekends?
  11. Going to see dr scott sounds better than saying you need to tend to your silverback. Nobody would believe me that I have a gorilla to play with...
  12. Seems that I won't be able to do this one afterall. Coming off strong antibiotics and cortizone for a lung infection. Have been on the bike only once the last 6 weeks. Still not feeling lekker. Enjoy guys and gals
  13. Think there is one in Harties also. Contact Trinity cycles - google them
  14. +1 for Anatomic
  15. Great, thanks! Stage 2 looks challenging. Hope I can get someone to partner with for a sufferfest.
  16. Dankie. Duh, I should've read it first! The ability to read, and to comprehend what you read, is a skill developed! "Inaugural..." Hope they give more info soon. It sounds lekker.
  17. Howzit Does anyone have any info on this stage race? I saw it on cycleevents. http://www.cycleevents.co.za/mtb-events/dam-2-dam-stage-mtb-race-2014/ Apparently it starts at Buffelspoort, up to Konka. The second stage is from Konka to Brauhaus am Dam. Is this a new race? What route do they follow (same as the magaliesmonster and konka races - I did neither of them). I really want to do a stage race - will this one be ok for a noob? And, at R800 per team of two, what is part of the package? Thanks in advance
  18. Hi I have an OLMA from around late 1950 to early 1960, passed down from grandfather. It only says something like "27 jewels" on the face. Where can I have it refurbished? I am in Pretoria. I have checked on their site, only European info. It is more of sentimental value (I have no idea if it has any value) Thanks
  19. +1 I will be following this thread. Thanks
  20. No minimum - brilliant 2-3 days - great Only credit cards - not so good. I don't have a credit card. Will have to go a retailer then.
  21. Good morning Thanks. Are there any other terms/conditions (minimum value required to qualify for free delivery)? Also, timeline to deliver to Pretoria? Possible to do an EFT? Thanks again
  22. Hi I am accessing the site from a smartphone. Am I missing the link to create/register an account? Viewing the product and choosing the size etc, there is no option to add to your cart/or creating an account. Advise/direction would be appreciated. Thanks
  23. On 40+km rides I use my Antidote and a bottle. The water bottle to keep my head cool, and squirting the sweat out the eyes. I tend to heat up first through my head - they say it happens especially when there is very little matter between the ears (or was that too much...)! I used two small bottles in the back pockets before the Camelback. There were numerous close calls on singletrack when I needed water and had to fiddle around for them. That's just me- see what works for you.
