  1. Found this on Thingiverse... Might work... https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3639979
  2. I have one of those, but Im looking for something that I can add her light to with a GoPro mount. I have my own 3D printer, but Im always worried whether the print is strong enough. I printed an adapter that allowed me to ut a Wahoo on a Garmin bracket that worked great for a while.
  3. Note sure where exactly in Gauteng you are, but Ive used the following to people and they are nothing short of epic. For a chiro, you can contact Sunil Rama in Benoni. He is awesome and looking after quite a number of cyclists already. He does not just bend you into a new shape, he tries to work with the muscles first. His site is: http://ruleoutpain.co.za/ If you are looking for a biokineticist you can chat to Patricia Gouws in Bedfordview. She really knows her stuff and is a triathlete, so she understands us. Her site is: http://www.pgbiokinetics.co.za/
  4. Thanks for this. I need one that specifically work with the horrible piece of steaming *^&^(%#$ that is called the Polar V650.
  5. So Im looking for a mount for my wife's Polar V650 and thought the Hidemybell mount would work great especially since I can add her light to it using the GoPro mount. Im not toooo phased about the bell, but its a kinda cool idea IMHO. This is what Im looking at: https://www.closethegap.cc/product/hidemybell-computer-mount/ Are any of you using it? Anyone know of local guys that sell the mount with the polar adapter and GoPro mount? I found one online but its the Garmin only edition. I have a 3D printer so I can print the GoProp mount but the Polar insert is still an issue.
  6. I see that the price is listed as R9499.99 and the sale banner and saving xxx has been removed. note: I included my PC time in the screenshot just as a reference
  7. LOL I cant post my rides on Facebook because Im supposed to be working :/. Maybe Ill create a insta account with no followers just for this
  8. I enjoyed the 62. Pushed myself as hard as I could and Im pretty happy with the results... The Guys in AS were pretty fast. Had two tandems sitting with us towards Carnival City, think they came in 5th and 6th. I have to admit that I hid behind them for a KM or two.... Our gazebo was at the start and I helped a lady with an allen key to tighten her seat post. Hope she was OK. as she cycled off I thought to myself that the seat was too high, but then again Im no expert. One note, I managed to miss the Coke/water/whatever table at the finish did I just not walk far enough?
  9. My wife has a set of DH wheels and shes done just over 6000KM on them (got them second hand). We had one issue with the bearings on the front wheel, which my LBS sorted out. I have a set of Tokens and I can definitely recommend them. Warren is tops!
  10. 100% will you even get a result if your chip doesn't register at the start (or any of the other mats for that matter)?
  11. I actually know him, nice guy and strong cyclist. If you track him using the racetec app then you'll see he started at 6:54... My bet is this is a charity ride and he waited and helped along the route.
  12. Im glad Im not the only one who feels like this.about the cows. They have to accept that they will be riding with less experienced and slower rides and that these riders have EVERY right to be on the road. They forced my wife to the side of the road, so much so that she missed the water point, one she really needed to stop at.
  13. Pretty rough day out. Enjoyed the race but it was tough. I started in H and held back a bit to hopefully finish strong. Well that plan didnt work as I started cramping just before Kyalami. Did a 3:30 in the end, not bad considering I broke my hand 3 weeks ago Two things that got to me was the lady on her e-bike climbing the mineshaft whilst I was trying to just survive... Lol yes I was jealous. The other thing was how the cows on the ice-cream cart behaved. I went back to look for my wife and found her on about 75km. The cows were rude and down right dangerous. These ice-cream carts should be banned.
  14. A lekker event with absolutely epic marshals! The wind and sun made it a tough one.
  15. I firmly believe that you need the right shoes when running. I for example have tried to run with other shoes, but I always go back to my trusty pair of Asics Nimbus. That being said, I cant see how shoes can really make someone run faster on tar unless its got some soft of spring in the sole, or maybe wheels. IMHO shoes cant make you run faster, it can only make the run more comfortable.
