  1. Disco App says Garmin synced successfully but no sign of any points for rides...
  2. Lank miffed that i am missing this race. Anyhoo, 3 days of riding in the kalahari may improve my mood a bit #kalchal
  3. Shame about the scheduling: It's either this race; or ashburton van gaalen's; or kalahari challenge... There can be only one (ridden).
  4. WHAT A BOYTJIE !!!!
  5. most def a genus of dromaeosaurid theropod dinosaur - a swift seizer
  6. Thanks for an HONEST review of: (i) a Spez; and (ii) an e-bike...lots of e-bike haters out there on the interwebs, so an objective and fair appraisal of this bike is overdue and much appreciated. Would I buy one? Now? Nope, not a chance. When I'm 55? Maybe. When I'm 65? Probably.
  7. from that angle, it looks like a gravel stelvio pass
  8. that would explain your hairstyle in the profile pic then...
  9. You can say what you like about Discovery but 260 PAGES of social media commentary on SA's leading bicycle website is...well...PRICELESS.
  10. Bucket list fosho!
  11. You can pry mine from my cold hands when I'm dead....
  12. My pulmonologist insists that all his patients have the flu shot annually and the pneumonia vaccine/shot (the new one - there are 2 - is good for 5 years, apparently).
  13. I've had it and it really sucks. PLEASE take care of yourself and don't rush back into any form of exercise or you'll do serious damage to yourself (that means your major organs like liver and spleen). Also, don't drink alcohol, as this may also cause permanent damage to your liver. It took me 6 months to get over it. I went from top fitness to not being able to ascend a flight of stairs. Get better soon.
  14. Google / the hub says this: "Posted 23 July 2013 - 10:03 Cycling South Africa reports that Pieter Seyffert who returned an adverse analytical finding in an in-competition test conducted by the South African Institute for Drug-Free Sport(SAIDS) on 17 February 2013 has been found guilty and has received a two year ban from all sport. The analytical report confirmed the presence of the stimulant, Phentermine in his urine sample. The finding and sanction were handed down by the independent SAIDS tribunal which was held on 9 July 2013. Seyffert is suspended for a period of two years from 10 April 2013 to 9 April 2015."
  15. Krupps burr grinder from dionwired is cheap and cheerful. It works and is reasonable quality (that means "keep the slip").
  16. Racefood fastbars (both nougat flavours) and FARbars (like a type of fruit/xmas cake) are the bomb. Almost like real food, they won't make you vomit or feel nauseous. They are all i eat on long or really tough rides.
  17. missed them ALL since they scrapped strava. garmin connect still won't sync properly. it's now having the opposite effect on my exercise habits (or. rather, my willingness to be arsed enough to upload data). So. Be. It.
  18. I've never seen or heard of a Spez tyre weeping sealant - i've had ground controls, fast tracks and a purgatory, none of which has leaked anything.
  19. If you want a tough tyre, buy a Spez with GRID casing - ZAR550 and you're sorted. Conti's are not the strongest, in my experience.
  20. Acronym for "Hurts Slightly More Than Giving Birth"
