I am looking for a pair of K Swiss Kona running shoes.Does anyone have an idea where to buy pref in Cape Town area.

interesting to see that my time from the water to T1 was actualy longer than my swim time.felt like a real poep

i got a team entry on the last minute as in meeting the team mates the day of the race.only did the short one.as i am still struggling with the broken metarsal i swam.water not that cold for me as i am used to swimming at clifton.took me just over 7 min for the 500m swim and then the long hike hobbling along on one foot to T1.all in all a lekker outing as i had a couple of beers and cheered my tri mates and watched the pros up close.watched the race on the telly as well.if those images does not grab you by the balls and make you want to come to cape town not much will.as with any new event there were some teething problems but i am sure it will be ironed out in future.i then opted the next day for a geniune swim by driving through to langebaan and did the 3,2 km round the island swim in 14 degrees.took me just over 62 min so a lekker weekend all in all.that must be the biggest medal i got for the shortest amount of work ever.

8 but then again its a personal thing.any cycle related shirt is cool.

think i have just found the answer.if only i asked my fellow hubbers i would have had a few extra gatorskins in the garage now.

would that make a difference?i am not mechanically inclined hence the question

looks like cr to me

dont know about the bearings.it spins as smooth as can be with no sound or vibration.

can one take that part out and have it re cromed? will first try the tin foil thing.

hi all hubbers.i have a giant indoor trainer.those blue ones.the rolling wheel is eating my tyres at an alarming rate.it seems as if the coating on that silver rotating part where the wheel makes contact is not so lekker.i went through a gatorskin in 2 weeks and even on the conti indoor trainer tyre it did not last more than a week. My question is whether you can put a new silwer thing in alt can one paint something over that to make it smooth again.

after reading this post i feel lucky.good luck and i hope you heal well.

love the term friendlier fracture.

wire and pins coming out in 2 weeks.

something like this talus?

no issues ever prior to this incident.missed the pavement rolled the ankle and boom.

thanks v12.just came back from surgeon.took new x rays and everything was fine.any idea of time frame before running or walking again.

Greetings to all hubbers.It seems i am having a run of bad luck in stead of running.I broke my foot to be more spesific the 5th metarsal on a brick run on 23 feb this year.was operated on 1 march where the surgeon opened up and did an internal fixating with some wire and 2 pins.the pins and wire is coming out in about 2 weeks from now.foot is still swollen and struggling to walk properly.went from a cast with 2 crutches to moonboot with 2 crutches then 1 crutch then only moonboot and today is the first day of normal shoe.is there anyone out there who had something similar.lucky is was after 70.3 but i had to follow IM from the couch.I have been swimming with a pull bouy as i cannot kick as yet.any ideas apart from pain is your friend?

even with a wetsuite it is cold.everything that sticks out is sort of puffy and frozen after a while.

snytjie i see there is also knysna forrest marathon in july if it is not too far into winter for you.as to the stepping to marathon i would guess(and it is only a guess) that you do not have to cover 43 in training and i think 32 odd in training would be fine.i am also working on my running and biking this winter coming off a nice 70.3.patience is key and that translates to less injuries.

x terra and terry for me as well.i see that kevin the fish richards has a new brand blue smooth.google kev and see his credentials. as far as i can remember his suits were very decently priced ie sub R 2000.

just watch out that the flapping straps do not get tangled in the rear wheel.think horse bridle.first hand experience.roll them up and cable tie.

anyone knows of a tri shop in and around ct to have measurements done?

wheelsuck i have been ridiculed for years in my family being ape positive 12 cm.i get back at them by smooth slow motion swimming.thanks for the constructive advice.

thanks gadget.i look at the classifieds and nevermind the size i do not know whether to look at a giant trinity or a cervello or an argon or bmc or whatever.just need a starting point. will ggogle to find retul fit okes in and around cape town

Morning to all hubbers.I am in the mrket for a TT bike having completed a few triathlons this year and 70.3 a week or 2 ago.I have completed all off my rides on an old giant tcr hybrid with clip on bars.I am aware that fit is key so where do you start? It is easy to say ride a few bikes but not very practical.Wehere would one start to figure out what brand/geometry etc would work for you.I am 1.86 m tall,but built like and ape as my arm from tip to tip is nearly 2 m.what are the basics to look at before deciding?not in a hurry to buy.Any ideas would be appreciated.
