  4. Hi Garreth. Just a question for you. Are you riding the correct size frame? Sometimes if a person rides a frame that is too big or too small or the bike is not setup properly it could feel like you are not in control of it. I ride 50mm and 38 in heavy wind sometimes and never felt unsteady. Yes, I do get pushed around but always feel in control. If your setup is fine thenI would say give it a bit more time but being stiff in the shoulders never helps and worrying about falling while out training should not be the focus. If your setup is correct, try moving your position of your grip around till you feel comfortable like top bar, drops or on the hoods. Hope you overcome this soonest
  5. Road bike from Solomans, Woodmead and track bike right here from the Hub

  10. Bought this to try stay out of this crazy Cape Town wind
  11. Anyone going to ride from tableview? Me and a mate are leaving tableview at around 7:45
  12. My 2 cents about this topic and other input. I was hired by some teams and corporates to take some images so I was in the thick of it. I am not a tittle tale so NO Team names will be mentioned but there were plenty of teams crossing the line and when I upload the images onto my facebook page, I will make sure not to expose anyone as its not my place. Now on the support vehicles...utter shock! Every time I passed a team I use the right hand side yellow lane and honk my horn as far back as 20m as I approached the teams and when going past but some support vehicles were flying past the teams at high speed without letting them know they were passing so they catch back up with their team. Saw a support vehicle crest a rise while passing a team just to run a approaching vehicle off the road to avoid a head on collision. Another had to push his way into a large group of teams cause he miss judged a opening when a truck approached. Yes 202km is long but if the teams can do the first half without them then why cant they do the 2nd half without them and just have feeding zones?
  13. Malcolm was riding with a few corporate riders
  14. enjoyed last years so you can count me in.
  15. Ready to Roll! Come say Hi if you have time.
  16. Did the mtb race in 2009/2010 and said never again cs of the litter and bottle neck. A shame this has not been seen to yet.
  17. Simon at head of the race with those massive calfs
  18. Lots of mud and saw a few broken bikes. Hopefully will be a bit dryer this coming weekend
  19. yes yes, I know what comes after this. But who hasnt picked up a container truck from paardeneiland to Milnerton or Tableview before? Generally you dont sit right on the bumper of the truck as the draft is big enough to sit 2-3m back and have enough time to brake. Problem is you never know if you going to hit that pot hole or half a brick in the road
  20. Page 2000...Alot's been said here
  21. No jelousy meant. Taking shots of the Tour just happens to be my job thrown in with a bit of a holiday and boat loads of fun
  22. Super excited! And then for the next 2 weeks I will be researching, Google earthing and booking for another of the Worlds greatest bike race. Just hope it will be a bit more exciting than this years race
