  1. this shoud be fine! just buy a speacer kit and slip one on. i wouldnt even boher cutting it
  2. hey Ruib ive done it, not a very hard race mostly district dirt roads, the last 5km has some really nice singletrack, not too bad but not a race you want to do more than once IMO
  3. he mentioned on tv that it was brake fade so it wasnt a sudden lose of brakes
  4. well its the suikebosrand race or the dirtmax race in parys on sunday and well how can i put this nicely?? i would rather go for a training ride on sunday
  5. i was looking at the suikerbosrand race ... think i might do that one!
  6. its it bit out of my way for a short race like this, looking for a mtb race to do the weekend
  7. if you going Alu you cant beat Cannondale IMO
  8. agg no man GT pity i missed you! but i headed home when it started raining so i didnt stick around much after the race! you have a good race though? im sure after this race you dont think that us triathletes dont have fun hey
  9. check this Helloise http://www.capeunionmart.co.za/search/brands.php?fk_brand_id=30
  10. the only decent buff is the Real buff available at some bikeshops and most Cape union marts
  11. lol yip like you say it sure is a small world
  12. i think i had a chat with you in transition about the start times? whas that you? i remember seeing your Scalpel, not something you miss easily
  13. congrats on your first tri Robrider you choose a good race to start off with lol usually you try to start off with an easy race and "literally" drop yourself in the deepend
  14. lol thats true Flex! where you riding the team colour scalpel?
  15. man o man was that a interesting race! at some points it felt like i was doing a speedway race... never knew you could get a bicycle sideways like that! it was a mudfest of note. but like you guys said, it was a well organised, entertaining and one to remember. there is something missing when you get home from a offroad triathlon and your trisuit and bike are still clean
  16. hahahha i like the term you use "chicked" theoretically it would be a couple of more minutes to be overtaken due to the time gap between the elite men and women but ja on paper she was right on his tail!
  17. i believe the entries arent looking that great so lets hope it picks up! all the other races where a great success so i dont understand it?
  18. hey guys remeber the last race in the series
  19. WOW!! how close are those times top 4 posisitons within 30 secs of each other
  20. no doubt that if there is someone that can give the men a go it would be her but it would be interesting to see what the mens times was when she put up her world record.. if i recall correctly she broke the world record after starting with triathlons like a year earlier
  21. you speaking about Chrissie Wellington? you dont really think she will be quicker than Raynard do you?
  22. he has been riding cervelo for a while now you think he might change Gummibear?
  23. thanks for the headsup crusty i will check that for sure
  24. spot on Eyecandy!! it most certainly is worse on a climb
  25. have any of you guys using eggbeaters experienced any creaking noises? i had a very muddy ride on sunday, got home and cleaned and lubed my bike and when i went out on monday i had this creaking/knocking sound i first thought that it was my BB again (replaced BB about a month ago) but it seems to be the pedals because if i move my heel outwards as to unclip and then pedal the noise goes away if it is the pedals what can i do to correct it? do you oil your eggbeaters?
