  1. Any LBS recommendations in Vredenburg / Langebaan??
  2. New to Saldanha / Langebaan / JacobsBay and was wondering if there are any areas to be wary of? Safety wise, are there any bikejackings up here? (please say no) I ride exclusively on the road.
  3. At the start, are our times started at the gun or after we cross the first mat? (Sure it's been answered before but I've missed it)
  4. Scratching around in old topics and came across this. How did it go? (Interested as your dad is just a few years older than me)
  5. Thanks for the 'numbers' Braam and Andy. Realise its ballpark but it seems a FTP of about 3.2 w/kg and the ability to do about 20 min @ 4 w/kg will make a sub 3 very possible. Just keep out of the wind and don't fall over. This is encouraging, got the FTP sorted, 20m@4w/kg needs work....
  6. That sounds right? Stick the number on the little plastic board.
  7. Anybody got an idea how big the groups are this year? The 1's and 2's.
  8. And the first review of the expo goes to....
  9. There are many many issues one could try take a stand against. Gov/corporate corruption etc etc but children getting murdered outside their homes on a monthly basis is just on another level.
  10. Apparently what happened: The bakkie pulled out suddenly in front of a line of cyclists. The guys swerved to avoid the bakkie. Chris's front wheel clipped the rider in front of him and he went down heavily.
  11. I'll be wearing a black arm band, gatvol of criminals acting with impunity. (now how do you stream-line an armband, marginal gains and all...)
  12. Impressive reading how much effort guys/gals go to to be able to ride CTCT. The travelling, organising accommodation etc. Really need to appreciate being able to take a 30 min cruise to the start from home.
  13. Anyone know roughly how big the groups are this year? Would the 1 groups be the same size as the 2's?
  14. Hope that Covid-19 doesn't pop up in CT before next Sunday...
  15. Apologizes if this has been covered: The 1A to 2A groups are leaving at 1 minute intervals. Is that normal? I can imagine some huge groups forming.
  16. Damn, passed on the last day. Feel a bit like Laurent Fignon.
  17. Apologizes if this has been posted already - these numbers are insane. Kristoff at GentWevelgem: Calories Burned: 7350kcal Ave Speed: 45.2km/h Max Power: 1432W Ave Power: 345W for 5.4 hours!
