  1. whatever you do enjoy the race
  2. before tubeless too many to count.since tubeless and running crossmarks and sealant(a lot in each tyre) 4 years and counting.so for me it is not the lower pressure etc that counts but the fact that i have not walked back to home in 4 years despite gouing through numerous hazards including porcupine penne at meerendal last week.
  3. on the bike it is normally either the casio mudman ltd edition or the sigma hr.in the pool it is either my trusty timex reef gear or my australian maxum waverider.in winter i am on the few swatches or my firm favourite(have 2) zodiac sea dragon range.there is an old omega,seiko 100 sports,limited edition vostock,a deep sea dweller rolex and a raymond weil dress watch in there somewhere as well.my wife always complains that i have too many watches , but she better watch out.
  4. the sector expander allutech is my mate today.
  5. yipieeeeeeeeee
  6. normally when my balls are bigger than my brains.when i then fall i always think to myself and try to convince myself that it was too technical.i think it all comes down to your skill in the end.what would be technical for one oke might be jra for another.
  7. both of the above.probike just more narrow than olympic.
  8. watched super cycling last nite and again realized that a mtb/bike can take you to amazing places physical as well as mental.that looks like one bitch of a hard race even with the little elevation.
  9. hope murray sees his arse
  10. the goose
  11. put in big ring up front,start as hard as you can and when you start feeling like you want to puke,hope you are near the end.i would suggest that training should be the priority
  12. i am in for this army as some or other person relieved me of my credit card in beirut while i was in hermanus saturday.i am just itching for a fight.
  13. i don't have experience with the elixers , but my j5 have served me well over time

  17. 26" mongoose cannaan elite with some upgrades.been riding the bike for 3 years and loving it.
  18. i have been buying from the same shops for so long (15 years plus) that i ask them and they give me the small things for free.they know i am back the next week for something else which i will have to buy.has been working for me for all the years.
  19. at home i wear the pants but my wife tells me what colour and size.
  20. in summer i just jump in the pool with all riding kit.the creapy then sucks up the mud from the camelback and shoes.a beer tastes good while the clothes are being hth-ed.
  21. this is the reason i ditched the road and tri bike like 15 years ago.went with my son for a nice ride on the mtb this morning.took my neighbour and his son along(they bought their first bikes this week after 2 years of me nagging).my neighbour fell and i told him that when you fall off the mtb it is normally your fault and the chance of being hit by a car on adrians everest in majik forrest is like zero.i realy feel for you predictor 007 as no one should have a ride like yours today.
