  1. Which shops in Gauteng stock ProLogo saddles ?/ I am looking for a white Dimension NDR .
  2. I am a very social and light drinker . Max 2 beers and NEVER anything else . When offered / coerced into a drink I just say I am a recovering alcoholic and don't drink . Works perfectly ... actually makes the person offering/forcing drinks feel like a real tjop ...

    My sentiment is that at least we are going to get some racing . Why 7 in Spain ?? Did Dorna put out an explanation on that ? I am sure ALL concerned parties signed off on the new calendar . Logistics might have played their part in this decision . Frankly , there is now very little room for error , races are too close together . The right wrist and the brain are going to have to work in sync this year .... Can't wait !!!!
  4. Swiss Van , Many happy miles . You gonna love that . Ultegra Di ?? Why DT Swiss , not Roval wheels ?? I have CLX 50 on my Tarmac ... Love them . Perfect for all the big climbs on the East Rond .....
  5. A ban on alcohol would not effect me . I believe I am a responsible drinker . 1 maybe 2 beers then no more . However , people like me ( the majority I presume ) are not the problem . Being blind drunk and still thinking you are OK to drive is the problem . I wish there was a solution to this problem . RIP to the cyclist .

    I have been saying for a while that Honda need Pol on that bike . Watch him ride the KTM .... He is 100% all the time . I think his aggressive style will suite the Honda , and if nothing else he has a few years worth of experience in the MotoGP category . Is he a better option than AM73 ??? And is it a done deal ??Time will tell . If he does move , it certainly puts BB33 in a better position to be the number 1 rider . ( Unless KTM have signed Dovi , as the rumour mill suggests ) .

    I saw those results .... SAFFAS doing very well in US of A Doyle , Peterson and Scholtz all at the sharp end this past week .

    BB 33 and his boet are on their way to Austria as I type this . Hopefully they can get back to their normal asap . Good luck to them both .
  9. At the beginning of our Lockdown , Strava ran a special of R600 (approximately)for a year . I joined , and now don't actually see the need for TrainingPeaks . I don't use/have a coach , just used it as a backup and also to see details . Strava premium now does what I need . I think it is fair value .
  10. Cobus , GM at the Boksburg branch is a great guy to deal with . Certainly wants to help wherever he can .
  11. Howzit SwissVan , You gonna LOVE that Tarmac . I have one with Ultegra Di2 .... The Di2 is the bomb .... very reliable and the battery last for ever .... I have the original Dura-Ace Di2 (7970 I think ) on my tandem and Ultegra 8050 on the Tarmac . I think the new Di has stronger servo's as the changing is slicker than on the old Di . Enjoy the new bike . Regards to your Goose .
  12. ChrisF , a little perspective from up country . Baragwanath hospital , as of this past Saturday was treating 2 Covid19 cases .... The biggest hospital in SA ..... Killing mosquito's with cannon's ......
  13. Duane , I am only on level 11,5 ... need about 3 rides before I qualify . Did ride up there in the Tour de Zwift last year .... 64 minutes and 2 weeks recovery ...
  14. Scubes , the thinking is that if you happen to crash , even alone , and need to be hospitalised , you may take up a bed that someone with corona virus could have used . Not saying I agree , but I understand the thinking .
  15. We on 1461 . Just need a few more active and safe days and Private Club will be done again . For the little inconvenience of doing a Health assessment , the discount benefits on Myriad alone are well worth it . Never mind Garmin discount and Healthsaver returns ....
  16. Awesome news Nic ... Now get that permit laminated and wear it like an Olympic Gold medal ....displayed for all to see !!

    MM93 has re- signed with Honda till end 2024 .
  18. Have the same problem with my Dischem card . Now I need to go to Dischem to sort it out . Really getting tired of Multiply and all their technical issues . Surely if the card was working , they should be able to sort it out .
  19. Ladies push - ups ...yes . Knees on the ground !
  20. I have asked what their criteria for the push-ups is . As I mentioned I managed 26 . I am 54 years old . Not sure how they score this , awaiting answers to my queries .
  21. RLucas , no they are not . I did my Health assessment last week . Had to do as many push-ups in 1 min as possible (26 for a skinny roadie ) , then they calculate the step height according to height and I had to do 6min34 on a step of 38cm high . You wear a HR strap and at the end of my 6 min , they look at your resting heart rate after 1 min post steps (if that makes sense ) . You also do the grip strength test ... no idea why . It is a lot tougher than previous tests , presuming push-ups and step ups is not your thing .
