TCTG

Today, I did a 3 and a half mtb ride or thereabout. 950+m of climbing. Had one banana and one pronutro high protein 250gram bar and a bottle of water filled with Magnesium effervescent tab (includes some Vit c). Consumed 3/4 of the bottle. BTW I eat after the first hour of cycling, half a banana, and sip whenever I have the opportunity to do so. The rest of what I eat is somewhere after the 2 hour mark. I make sure that I am on route home so I can eat a meal within the hour of ending the ride or have the emergency smoothie filled with some L-Glutimine. I don't have any preference for what I take with, its a case of what I have available.

I once rented a Hyundai getz hatchback and TWO bike boxes fitted nicely in the boot of the vehicle once the full back seat is flattened.

haai, hoekom is jy soo nasty met my!

Whats a decent decaf bean to look out for?

Name and shame bro.

I think Merlin will send Sram and Shimano. Have not tried them yet though.

Thanks, based on this, would electronic groupsets attract ZERO customs duty?

My buddy had two replaced by Shimano and finally moved to a 105 crank instead. No problems since.

My feed loops. is that the result of the sea cable that is broken or something else on the fiber network?

I just ignore and go about my business but like anything in life this placement of ads in the wrong section, can be technologically solved.

Could you please bring the medal table outside of that gravel patch leading into the racecourse area. I for one would want to grab and go but not walk on stones to receive it. And there was no coke at the end.

Yes, its a call you make and live with the outcome. Today I had another puncture...this time in front and I had spares but I realized now that these Pzeros tyres are no good. Soft compound and any sharpish object penetrates the tyre..a tyre I will not purchase in a hurry again. Glad you liked the vid...

This guy called out if I needed help because at that time I was just waiting for the sweeper van to arrive. He said he pulled a hammy and he previously mentioned that it took 3 years for his hammy to heal. Not sure if thats you but no motorbike guy assisted, except to radio in but that was way before this Chris arrived on the scene.

At 67km.mark I had.a puncture.no tube.on me..my group D, that pulled in C and was eyeing B at that time just wisked away into the distance (pic uploaded)..in that time waiting for some assistnce, 4 groups and some stragglers came past. A Marshal pulled over and he called for a sweeper and thereafter one.of the riders, after what seemed like an eternity of waiting, called out if I needed help, pulled over and offered me a tube and assistance. His name.is CHRIS,.he pulled a hammy and all he was doing is to finish but thanks to him I could finish with no intention of recording my time. I already consoled myself that my race was done for me. My post is dedicated to Chris (i did not get his number), if I can meet you then I would like to thank your in-person and hand over a gift, so.if by chance you that guy then DM me and we can hook up...you a super human being! Some clips posted while I basked in the sun...waiting for Chris to show up.
