  1. You can use Rouvy and use their free app to import the gpx file from RidewithGPS, etc
  2. just attached to my shoe, no issue what so ever for 3 years
  3. New booties courtesy of ArtfulKicks #ShoeDoping
  4. Even though it has just arrived, I liked the Orca so much, I ordered an Orca Aero (now for another 4 month wait)
  5. Rouvy is better value than Zwift purely for the amount of available routes esp. ones with video and the ability to add your own routes (created from scratch or taken from strava, ridewithGPS, etc); paired with a smart trainer it makes for a easy, safe training experience that, in reality, is a harder ride than doing the same ride on the road (about 10-15%) S
  6. I have high arches and insteps and used to get cramps in my feet, they felt like the bones were mashing together and/or a nail was being driven into the ball of each foot; since sticking in the insoles, I've had nothing and can pretty much go as tight as I want on the shoes
  7. have a look at https://fitfoot.co.za/pages/contact-us customer moulded instore, have made the world of difference
  8. If any one is that way inclined, I've uploaded the route onto Rouvy; just search for Cycle Challenge (or provulo for a lot more of the bigger race routes)
  9. As bike (and accessory) owners we are all probably guilty of jumping on the back of our LBS or the distributor if things break and we aren't serviced immediately (or its our fault or the thing is out of warranty). Over the last week to 10 days, I stripped an internal bearing on my Kickr 3 (a first apparently) and wasn't looking forward to the 7-10 day working process of having the device swopped out and/or repaired, given the opinions of some folk on the Hub, resulting from their dealings with the guys at Wahoo ZA (BuyCycle/Ikhambi). I have to say though, I had nothing but fantastic service from Sean and all the folk at Wahoo ZA, from my first interaction on the phone yesterday, with Sean calmly talking (a bloody irritated) me through the process, to his efforts at their offices to troubleshoot the problem and then sending me on my way with a new unit within an hour of getting there. We've all spent a lot of money on our toys but we should also remember that these guys have a business to run and as much as they are cyclists themselves and want to keep everyone happy, that the reality of business does get in the way - we should cut them as much slack as they give us a great product (and remember that we bought in the first place). Happy trails folks S.
  10. Just rode to the top of Randburg/crossing Republic on Rouvy/Kickr; it's not as much fun as you would think
  11. I also heard the 'take it easy, it's a neutral zone' speech from the announcer, and I was at the back of the start group - was a bit miffed that there was 90s diff bet the Garmin and the official time
