  1. It depends who I'm riding with, what kind of interval it is etc. Normally my road rides avg 89-93 cadence. If I ride with someone a lot stronger than I am I find spinning higher(100-105) to be easier than pushing a heavier gear at 90 rpm. IDT threshold and tempo workouts are all in the 90-95 range unless specified otherwise. 1min maximum effort intervals I often max out at 130rpm.
  2. So just ATV and Vat? If I remember correctly that's the amount + 15.4%?
  3. Lexx, how much duties do electronics like notebooks etc. attract? On my budget I may be able to get a razer blade stealth and a razer core. shipping incl. this comes in at 20k
  4. I use my Ps4 for gaming and streaming only, but with a bit of tinkering I managed to create a nifty little media server running Linux out of my old ps3. The OS severely limits the performance of these consoles.
  5. Thanks for the suggestion, IMO they're just crazy overpriced and a bit bulky for me. It's definitely one to consider, just not top of my list. This is that typical triangle of good looking, performance, cheap - pick 2
  6. Can anybody recommend a high performance notebook that looks good? I don't want to upgrade to another mac and have started doing a lot of work in VM's and linux as well as all my programming work I need something that can handle serious multitasking and multiple processes at once. Gaming is not a super important requisite but it would be nice I have a budget of about 20k Edit: I need the portability of a notebook so don't want to build a desktop
  7. I'm still on season 6. But I just skip over anything that looks GoT related
  8. This was my hardest week on a bike ever...
  9. A quick question, how long does it take you guys to raise your CTL by say 10points? I have had some bad luck in my schedule the past few months and struggle to get it over high 70s. Something normally happens causing me to miss a long ride and then it just drops.
  10. This was a recovery week to let those intervals I've been doing settle in, so mostly longer easier outdoor rides. I still have some minor discomfort in my chest and shoulder from my fall last weekend. TSS 564.1 IF 0.71 9:52:26
  11. The worst part about this whole trade in deal is the profit those guys make on them again. The 'new' preplayed games are selling for close to R600.
  12. So gameplay a bit like minecraft then?
  13. I'm avoiding GOT spoilers like the 13th century peasants avoided the plague (not very well) Anyhow, has anybody watched SIX (history channels new series). It is amazing
  14. Has anybody played space engineers? I've been watching Soviet Womble on YT and it looks quite fun
  15. I'll be doing a ride from the circus this Saturday, will be around 90Km. Planning on doing the small lap twice maybe 3 times. Going after the uphills so won't be a fast ride. Aiming for around 2k elevation gain. If anybody is keen to join let me know. Edit: route I have in mind is 103.5 Km 1946m el gain
  16. 249.9 TSS 0.76 IF Fell of a motorbike on the track, bit through my lip, bruised left side ribs and sternum as well. No riding saturday small ride on sunday to feel things out. Might start on Tuesday again depending on how the body feels
  17. Ek het hom nou n fb boodskap gestuur. Toe ons in die Paarl gebly het was hy my buurman, ek en sy dogter is nog goeie vriende.
  18. Ek is Afrikaans, maar ek vrees my Engels is aansienlik beter as my moedertaal. Dalk iets te doen met my Engelse skool opvoeding
  19. https://www.netflix.com/za/#this-is-netflix Just check under pick your price. I have the 9.99 USD option, but only need it to have the multiple devices at once.
  20. Not if you take into account the online membership fees you have to pay if not on pc. Also in game purchases etc. Then it becomes expensive. But I get your point, I meant the hours as a average.
  21. I honestly don't believe a game is ever worth 1k. You play say 40 hours (and that's long for most modern games) and then don't touch it again or lose more than 50% of the purchase value. It's hard being a cyclist and a gamer.... Anyway, do you play it on 4k? I saw a demo of that game on a 4k TV and it looks **** hot
  22. Will have a look thnx
  23. Unfortunately I play ps4, where even pre-played games cost 600 rand for new titles
