Tankman, I think you gave the answer that will settle it.

Ok thanks. Will let him decide.

Not going the roadbike route as he and his wife rides together and shes still struggeling to keep on the bike even on easy singletrack, so the roadbike may be too uncomfortable. Or, is it possible to have a roadbike with a riding setup like a mtb? (They are 110% fundriders)

The 700c rims was actually a suggestion from silverback. He has a surplus 2. Will obviously first have to check clearance. Think he will still go with a 11-32 casette, as he's not racing. Just riding for fun.

My uncle rides mtb(Funrider), but also do road races like 94.7 and argus. He is tired of changing tyres everytime he does a road race and would like another set of wheels for road riding. So two options: 1. Get another set of xt wheels and put on some slicks. 2. Get Johan to build 700c rims onto xt hubs and put on some road tyres. What do you guys think is the best option, and what would the time difference be between the two options on the Argus? He did argus this year in 5:45 I think.

Call me before you start stripping the paint off your bike ww. Then I'm stopping you.

What about red?

Kenda Nevegal. The tubeless is heavy at about 770g, but they have a nice tread.

Buy tools from Johan. Free marketing and bump. But seriously, Johan Bornman knows his stuff and gives great advice.

Hi Luan. Do you use mapmyride to map your rides. I currently use it and upload gps tracks created with my cellphone.

Thanks bra Looks like its me and you against the rest for now

Not saying the cyclist was right, and I would never say/do something like that. I usualy just throw my arms in the air and give my "what the hell did you just do" look. But what if maybe just maybe the cyclist got cut off, he tell the motorist to look where she's going. Then she tells him, that next time she will take him out and then he came and told her the same. I am fairly sure this didn't happen, but just illustrating that there are two sides to a story.

Wish I could do training camps on a regular basis here. Lots of mountains. Some that will make you wish you were at suikerbossie We are actually thinking of building a few cabins for guys to come and stay. Will give hub specials. Also have a piece of unoccupied land with an old church on it, about 7km into the baviaans. Will try to organize something for December maybe for guys to come and camp there if they'd like. (Maybe for free)

And a little bit of Baviaanskloof this morning To think I traded all of this for Gauteng

Awesomeness on our farm next to Baviaanskloof

Look at slick. Saw them at cape argus expo. They have a seemless bib for around R2800 I think. Anybody use these. I got a jersey from them and really like the material.

What about the issua with kenda not being able to tack some kinds of slime. Kenda spesifically states that one should not use slime in the tubeless tyres, but it is only slime containing some ingredient.(Can't remember which one) I've been using Stans sealent in my Kenda Nevegals for 2 weeks now.

Think it's individuals only yes.

then cut them shorter untill they feel right. Little bit at a time

Come ride Botha Laan in Centurion and we can exchange tubes in the future

Don't think you can really compare a polar to a garmin with pros and cons. You can google the pros and cons of each, or you can ask which would be better for the kind of riding you do. If you're a triahtlete then I'd go with the s725x. Haven't used any of them, but everone complains about the edge 305. Lots and Lost and Lots of problems. If only for cycling, then the edge 500 is a popular choice nowadays.

Shame on them bra. Can't believe people are like that. If it was a dodgy area and you looked suspicious then I can understand. I always ask if someone needs help when I pass them standing on the side of the road.

At the moment yes. I'll team up if you keen
