  1. Does anyone have the starting coordinates for this section? Perhaps a Strava segment, Google Map, GPS file,etc.? Rode it during the SX in 2012 & Sabie Classic 2013, but can't remember exactly where it begins. Cheers
  2. Are there import duty paid on watches or only VAT? Citizen Men's AT8030-00E Eco-Drive Limited Edition World Chronograph, but it is not available in South Africa.
  3. I need to have a wall clock repaired. Bought at Bucherer in Lucerne 15 years ago. Any suggestions in Pretoria or Johannesburg area?
  4. Who is running XX1 / X01 on a 26" 650B bike? Front ring 30, 32, 34 or 36? Your experience?
  5. I ordered a X01 groupset, but need the help of a DIY expert too install it. I'm not too keen on getting my LBS do it. I want somebody that will take the time & due care to make sure it is "perfect", Preferably someone that has done it before. I have a Specialized Epic Comp Carbon 2010 model. Live in Mpumalanga, but will travel to Jozi or Pretoria. A Saturday would be great, since I would like to drop off the bike & "assist" with the installation & take it home on the same day. Will reward the person for their time. Please PM me. Cheers R©

  8. sorry Double Post... See V12Man mentioned the soap steaming....
  9. Don't know if someone mentioned this, but if you want to practice your steaming & pouring technique & don't want to waste a lot of milk. Put a couple of drops of food colouring in a cup and add a volume of water equivalent to double or single espresso. Add about two drops of dish washing liquid to the same volume of water as you would normally do using milk in a steaming pitcher. Go through all the motions of texturing, swirl, tap & divide before pouring the fake cappuccino. In my opinion Best milk to use is ICE COLD Full Cream Clover,since the fat / protein content is stabilized. Woollies Ayrshire milk is also great. Remember steaming pitchers must also be cold.
  10. This is a really comprehensive review http://www.dcrainmaker.com/2013/01/garmin-edge-810-in-depth-review.html
  11. http://www.importalia.co.za/contact_us.html I have a Wega Concept Greenline 2-Group & use Koldserve.co.za which service onsite. Don't know if they do La Cimbali as well.
  12. I've been using Egg Beater 3 pedals for the last 4 years & never had any problems. However during this year's Sani2C, I experienced severe pain in my left knee. Day 3 was really difficult. But I was stupid to change the cleats the day before the start & didn't test them. Upon returning home I adjusted the left cleat & went for a ride. NO problems. So I have to agree it is not the pedals, but the bike setup.

  14. Any Hubbers doing TRX Suspension Training? http://www.trxtraining.com/suspension-training Apart from doing the odd weekend ride, I (momentarily) lost my my MTBing MOJO & started going to the gym more often. I've been combining TRX & Spinning. Really enjoy it. Noticed that my core strength significantly improved, since I started. Have you seen any benefits in general terms e.g. strength, endurance, muscle mass, toning, etc.? .... and cycling specific improvements? How long have you been doing suspension training? Length of the sessions? How many times per week? Are you doing a group PT class or train on your own? Your experience?
  15. I emailed ActionPhoto on Monday, but haven't had ANY reply!!!!!!
