  1. can u imagine what the "phils" would be saying if wiggens goes into the last few days still in yellow.
  2. ag please don't show your ignorance - you only pay the salary of the admin workers - all other positions at CSA are on a volunteer basis with no pay - and the admin worker have no say in selection of who goes and who doesn't.

    WPCA TTT

    i see all the tough cookies didn't wear armwarmers - it was lekker cold at the start. Genis is still tough.
  4. drop the PPA a email with all the details - they might take it up with someone on behalf of the general cycling population.
  5. did you go to Obs Boys Junior? that was the only time i heard the term "rort / raut" , the only other school i went to called it a 'barney'. hi Jack off.
  6. go and work weekends and the hols in your local bike shop (even if it means that you just wash the bikes). you'll soon get an idea whether you like it or not. its long hours and you are constantly on your feet.
  7. i'm lookinjg for a pair of road shoes - what's available?
  8. North Gate Island isn't in Milnerton, it's in Brooklyn/Ysterplaat and i don't think they have rides from that cycelab store.
  9. so what will it be? mountain bikers are w*ankers OR w*nkers ride mountain bikes.
  10. have a good breakfast and you won't bonk and just keep on sippng yr drinks on the ride . i know it's difficult to eat so early in the morning if you are in the firt few start groups to eat a big breakfast. to Cleva - you have to include some intensity in yr training rides. intervals etc, its the only way yr body will adapt itself to riding at a faster pace.

  12. i go thru a saddle in about 2 years. it wears away on the sides and then the artificial leather peels up. btw i've been thru 3 fizik's so don't recommend them. i'm prepared to pay r300 - r500 for a saddle.
  13. use horse linament stretch calf before and after ride spin the legs go for more physio
  14. also take into account the finsh in Green Point and the fact the the distance is now 109 kms. in the "old days" a sub 3 meant an average of 34/35 kph now it is closer to an average of 39 kph to get close to s sub 3.
  15. ep cycling organise, take the money. they are responsible for the event. they should be suspended from their affiliation t to csa.
  16. the last time WP hosted champs, chris willemse was the organiser and it was a monumental f....up.
  17. the csa sit in CTown and are basically admin people. they award the champs to the a provincial body. the local body chooses the route, surely ep cycling should know which routes are going to affected by traffic. once the route is chosen, apply with the local traffic authorities, only proceed when permission is granted its not rocket science. ep cycling held sa's a few years ago without problems. where has all that knowledge gone.
  18. blame EP Cycling - they were the ones to apply for it so they should make sure all is in order.
  19. i believe the attakwas is a barstard of a race - so well done on finishing. there are a few guys in my club athat did not
  20. join a club. stop being so radical
  21. you guys have a good training schedule going there. just keep it consistent and you'll be flying by argus time
  22. if you want a carbon frame fixed go to Andre Louw in Tygerdal. all the main shops (cyclelab,marks,JoC Gecko) send their clients to him.
  23. what club did you belong to?
  24. join cyclelab - they have a lot of novices on the mtb & road. they are also in the S'surbs
  25. nr1. instruct your back up driver and his passenger not to ditch their litter over the guard rail anywhere on the route.(well known bike shop in T view).
