    Any idea where I can find these in a medium or has anyone tried tri-shorts ? Open to recommendations. Lastly what socks do you guys use, always cycle in versus but socks stuck for running and my falke running socks are a bit to thick for cycling so looking for something in the middel. https://ciovita.co.za/products/mens-orion-tri-shorts?_pos=7&_fid=f5c2e693d&_ss=c&variant=40482907652280

    Yeah fair enough points, I have free accomodation and doing it with a group of mates mainly social and not to worried about my time. I do have a duel suspension but agreed will probably waste a lot of energy even with locked suspenion. Will have a look online as I guess buying a 2nd hand road bike is probably safer than a mountain bike anyway.

    Ahh I see Mountain bikes are now allowed, wan't the case back in the day. Think my mountain bike is probably around 14kg,s so with slicks I am probably gona be carrying an extra 4kg. Also have a 1x12 group set any have experience with how big a difference this will make compared to a road bike ?

    Hey all doing the Half Ironman in Mosse bay end of the year and just want some general recommendations. (I did one about 8 years ago but didn't have a watch or correct gear so hopefully this one goes better) 1. Road Bike - What are the min specs on looks for in a decent bike ? Rememebr it was Shimano 105 back in the day? Also not sure if I should rent a bike or buy a new one/2nd hand and sell after the half ironman? (Currenly have a mountain bike and doubt my wife will let me have 2 bikes and road biking also not really my game) 2. Tri-Suit - Last time I just changed clothes after each dicipline but might look at a tri-suit this time. Any recommendations for a decent tri-suit ? Thanks

    Ahh thanks good point but I have heard you can atleast use them till the child is 4 so atleast it's a good long term additional pram. Ideally want to use it for running to give the wife a break every now and then but yeah might end up not running as mush as I think on paper

    Hey guys anyone have expereince with running strollers ? Happy to go with Thule Glide 2 just not sure if there are any alternatives or recommendations out there ? Thanks

    Get to a doctor or physio asap, there are lots of excerices and stretching that can resolve teh issue. I usually do barefoor speed work on a grass field once or twice a month and never had and injuries. Physios can also help with alternatives to stay fit in the down time, increasing core strenth and wattbike are great alternatives when not running

    Anyone have the seeding cart for the two oceans last year ?

    Has anyone cycled the MTB? Assume it is probably just mostly dirt roads?

    Took my Asics trabuco 11 for a 10km spin at Wolwespruit today and super impressed Grip and stability is great felt way more confident going downhill. I think I might have gona 1/2 size to big but I assume bigger is better than smaller so me left foot was sliding a but but nothing major. Going to try fix with thicker socks and maybe different lace techniques. Any recomendations for good thick running socks? Currently using falke which is already on the thicker side. First impressions of the shoe is 9/10 but will have to run it in to give a full review.
