  1. sjoe, took a beating today 30minutes slower than last year instead of 30 minutes faster.... I definitely still dit not figure this thing out yet. Three days of R&R, and to to retrospect today. Not a pretty sight at the finish:
  2. 70.3 Langkawi V2.0 Let's see if the 2018 lessons can be applied. Sadly/Weirdly the cycling is my least prepared leg. Nervous, praying for rain tomorrow
  3. This is actually very impressive. But i guess if your target is to win all 5, then "you need to be in it to win it" counts
  4. No one (& bike) gets left behind enemy lines
  5. Part of my genetic blueprint is from that brown hill on the left above the river
  6. Thanks for the video, it was the final push I needed to commit my old road bike to a Tri bike. To do the same on the Canyon with integrated handlebar and DI2 would have been a bit to drastic to revert back to road from time to time. Did a 3 hour fitment today which was a pretty impressive experience. Amazing what analytic tech is available and what difference can be made - even not mentioning the actual fitment, just the basic stuff like shoe cleats and saddle pressure already made a drastic difference. Will require new handlebar, stem and saddle. The Profile Design T5+ alu bars I sourced second hand. Bike stay there for a couple of days to service and components fitment. Will test it next week on the road. Hope it make the difference.. Langkawi is 4 weeks away
  7. Indoor to hide from the haze. Perfect timing though... had to catch guppy fry during my rest intervals
  8. Yup, pretty bad
  9. Nowhere the last 7 days and probably nowhere the next 7 [emoji26]
  10. Eine hel. Klippe, wierook en steekgras
  11. OK, there was MX races earlier the day: https://www.mxgp.com/motocross/news/first-ever-fim-e-bike-world-cup-kicks-imola The difference between the participants comments in that article and my perception of what I see in the video are polar opposites...
  12. Well, at least the marshals brought ear protection to match the hype
  13. Look nice on Google maps! Check out the swimming pool hidden in a house without a roof next door
  14. Reverse role play day, I took it for repairs
  15. If it is checked via the phone location, then there is no need to spend money to get a 'faster' location: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.incorporateapps.fakegps.fre&hl=en EDIT: yes, it will screw up your Strava phone recording, but then - who would advertise cheating on Strava
  16. hmm, if anyone spot Barguil Warren out there on the parcours - please tell him his manager consider him as awol. He can find his own way home.
  17. I was also look at that last night - visionary / accident? (Would have been nice to see the list of what teams include a certain rider)
  18. ouch https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=660892127670993
  19. Wise words from WP in the first 20 seconds here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4TLIE_qFHU&t=
  20. It was a work visit. Are you in the area?
  21. Nostalgic spin for coffee and scones to retrace my much missed Wicklow country lanes once again.
  22. A bit undercooked for this one. Will try to have fun and gain more experience
  23. Hải Vân Pass, the Chapman's Peak of Da Nang
  24. Good idea, thanks will do. I was at first taken a bit aback with the un-requested holes and stitching, but then realised it is probably stronger than before and exactly what is needed to keep me going...
  25. If your shoe sole came lose in a country where you know it might take while to get your size, you stop and make use of the roadside service options available. (Asked for glue but received the stitching as a bonus when I returned after an hour of rest. )
