  1. Easy tigers, ..... thanks Cav, I like reading the updates and discussions.
  2. Hehehe, that is cold man, cold. I find the trick is to invite friends who spend more on bikes than you do, and then discuss their latest purchase within earshot of your wife. Gives her a nice leveling number to make your expenses seem cheap. Of course good form dictates that you should be outside of said friends wife's earshot.

  4. Fantastic Brandon91, like Harryn mentioned, as long as you didn't have short sleeves ....
  5. Stick with your bunch , around 50km there is that 'hill' to drop the 'heavies', make it over that hill with a group and sub 3 is yours.
  6. Any updates on safety at Groenkloof?, I heard the fence was fixed? Anybody with some stats? Would love to go there over easter weekend.
  7. Most comments here are based on opinion, and that is a fact in my opinion.
  8. Both seem to be looking to be last minute partners, maybe the first minute partners have the entries , but agreed, they both look like serious racing snakes.
  9. Me neither, but it does sound scary ????
  10. Perhaps some slack is in order here, things were different in the good old bad old days..
  11. That's a nice way to say HTFU,???? but thanks for the feedback,???? will go find some hills and train harder the last few weeks
  12. Eish, apparently I can replace10 speed ultegra dérailleur with a 9 speed MTB one, giving me access to a 36 cassette. Wondering if it's worth the admin. Has anybody done this successfully?
  13. How are the hills towards the end of the ride on tired legs? do you run normal gearing or a bigger than usual cassette for the race? I have 11-28 and compact front and feel a bit nervous.
  14. 5 Ten shoes worth the bucks, you won't be sorry. I bought the cheapest pair with Dartmoor pedals (arguably not the best brand) and have to lift up my foot to adjust pedal position.
  15. Agreed , you could probably make it work and would definitely be fantastic. Agreed, pics or it didn't happen ????
