JCVenter

a bit of Nguni also in there.....

activity_3794478992.gpx This was the route in 2019, seems to be the same for 2021...all the climbs at the end !

We are waiting to establish if we can claim from their insurance for our bikes..... Very limit (no?) security when we discovered the break-in just after 6:00 am. We had to drive from the Equestrian estate to the main gate to find a security guard. Several units broken into, bikes, tv's , laptops.... I estimate the estate was around 75% occupied and in one case they went through a bedroom where the family's daughter was sleeping....serious jack-up in security needed, doubt I will return.... Management reacted, but in my view slowly, police arrived around 8:00...

Ya..... Sani2C training not getting much traction....

Yes, several units broken into.

On Buffel Route, as you go up with the fence on your left, before Super Tube

Hi, after the incident I made my way to safety, phoned Buffels and returned to the coffee shop. I waited a while and then returned home. Yes they reacted and said they would go out and mentioned Metro police and that they would change the route (by WhatsApp), I was not around for this..... My aim was purely to make solo riders aware of the incident....I am convinced Buffels will do everything in the power to make things safe but it is a large area....

Similar interest charge for two months, battle to get it back but then phoned for the third time and insisted on a written response from Discovery in order to proceed to ombudsman....sorted !

Hi, I bought a demo (basically brand new) Trainer from https://ptscoach.com/ They told me waiting time for Atom will be 3-4months.... email Lynette lynette@performancethroughscience.com

I had the same problem....with Garmin + Zwift (Kickr 3) . It needs to be a Garmin Dual, the newer ones....had both and one worked and the other (older) one not. As mentioned....connecting with Zwift, not the Kickr

Congratulations on finding the best MTB park in Gauteng ! Keep on riding the Buffel, you will build skills that will come in handy. You can do the A line without a dropper post, lean back and go straight.....like so !

Same issue....used Edge 520 with Fenix 5 (2017), worked perfect. Then Fenix decided time to retire... I now have the same Edge 520 (still close enough) but the new Fenix 5S Plus is all over the place, mostly lower. Did the reset, calibration, stopped Galileo and now going to try only Glonass. So far now success....will aslo switch off auto-calibration during the ride. Let’s see if new software will resolve this issue.

Went from Trek to Spez (my dream bike...), just took delivery of a new Trek again yesterday, why ? Something to do with life time warranty on a carbon frame that cracked (only had the bike for 18mnths) and I have to pay for the replacement. Enough said.
