hey all,,, i have started with spinning classes and i found that my right foot (on top where your feet bend) i have pain. my mtb shoes are not even tightly fasten and i`m not sitting to high,,,, any idea what this could be? when i stand (climbing in class) i dont feel it at all, just when i sit down and spin after a while the pain starts again,,,, i have torn the ankle ligaments a couple of years ago, but the pain is on top of my foot,, any ideas?

i havent been to majik since the attach -- to sh*t scarred!!

thanks for all the above info,, THANKS BIG GUY for usefull tips!!

hi guys,, was just wondering,,, what tipe of training or weight lifting can i do to help improve my calves?? (gym member, so have all the equipment,just not sure which are the best to use)

but lets go one further,, what would be best,,, a long 3hour ride or a hard 1.5 hour ride,,,,?

hi fanie,,, ek is ook op weightloss program,, as ons 2.5ure + ry dan vat ek appeltizer saam,,, verder is dit net water,,, dit werk vir my,,,, ek het al 17kg verloor since einde oct....

did anyone hear anything from the tygerburg mtb club?? i also say,,, dont go there before 17:00 .. it was about 5months ago, i wanted to go and ride there just after 15:30. i was standing on sy sidewalk and saw a black guy going in on old bike. a lady (cleaner from the area) came up to me and said " moenie daar in gaan nie, daai man wag vir jou" ... scarry sh*t!!

mtb my friend,,,,

hi guys, just need some help,,, dad wants to buy KTM bike from cyclelab,,, okay bikes??? any info he needs to know abou????? thanks rene

u also go by "fortunate blixems...." hahahahah

ja he did the epic x3 and sani and and and,,, but he quit on Cape pioneer, he said its the toughest ride ever!! he is doing the jhb2c

dont know. my father and his friend ride every teusday aroun spesbona back over tikkie draai onto majik and back home (d/ville) way out of my league,,,

hi chrish,, maybe i should say hillcrest is alot harder on the heartrate than majik,hiehie!! the best track to go ride over weekends is oak valley grabouw,,, that is a lot of fun!!! wanna get lights and start doing the nightride thing,,,, my father told me that majik is a different place at night,,

indeed hillcrest,, tygerburg mtb new track,,, awesome,, for me a bit technical,,, but awesome!! just wanna know, is it okay to ride at majik early morning (aka safe?)

went down the road passing panorama medi-clinic in my bakkie today - Roadie went over RED robot.... then if i thought he could not be more stupid he road on the outside of the yellow line ( and i need to mention that the "yellow-line-lane" is as wide as a normal traffice lane!!!!!!!!) -- now sorry to say but if he gets ran over its always to poor old cyclist!!....... i`ve only been riding (mtb) for about 18months now and really feel that we should also be "road wise"...

good point s/bean -- i would also love to know!!!!!!!!!!! but, if we complain we are a bunch of !#@ - so i have just decided - listen to my fellow rides AND DONT DO DIE BURGER!!!

well done

hi guys - i`m also not happy about something - we also started very late due to traffic etc, but no probs in that department - my problems are as follows - we had 2 punchers in the first 30kms - just before the botmaspass we got stopped by the van and were told we are disq because we were 5min behind the cut of, we had to be at the second water station at 10:00 -- he stopped us as 09:30 - aka we had about 30min to get there.. i refused to get into the car as we are only 5min behind and feeling good. i withdraw from the race as he stopped us again "just to give us the rules etc,, WASTING MORE TIME!! well we had to "retire" from the race.... we stopped at wimpy "malmesbury" and rode back rustig... wont be doing die burger again....

my club: the "trainers" will watch their "clients" spin/run/walk etc, while they are on the phone MXIT`ing!!!! was sitting on the row machine watching a guy, in weight probs about 150kg on the stepper with one of the so call trainers,, whilst his on this the "trainer" stood laughing behind his back with "fellow trainers" - thats not on man, i went over to her and gave her a piece of my mind!! hands to the 150kg man who stood up and decided to gym

not the best of answers, we dont even have the "unsafe ones" the guys sommer cable them to the step poles --- not good for Virgin A,,,,,,,,

hi all, thank you so much for all the info, im not that fit yet, should i "pick a loop" or do the whole ride? how long`s the trail?

???

thanks guys! what are the trails like? alot of single track? obviously never been there before, but would like to now what to expect....

hi all, how do i get there? were is it situated? some directions please, thanks
