  1. I hope they just as slap when it comes to sending out membership renewal notices!
  2. This is absolutley disgusting. They should all be fired. This is certainly not how things are done in the corporate world!
  3. Hi. What is your preference? Is there a reason for your choice?
  4. Not all riders on the hub ride in the "A" group or are elites. For those of us mere mortals seeding does matter as the higher you seeded the faster you ride (get pulled by the group)
  5. The last seeding that took place was the race before the ninety niner. I've done 4 races without a re-seeding. The next seeeding will likely take place on 7 April which doesn't give you much time to decide if you want to do the Malmesbury ride. I think I'll just give this one a skip
  6. Hi, Will the Tacx flow pick up a pulse from the polar T31 CODED sender unit? Thanks
  7. I heard about Polar HRM being taken for a service. It's a damn watch not a car!
  8. Hi, Any hubbers out there that used the real life videos form Chasek whereby you had to change the resistance manually as opposed to the I-magic that does it automatically Is the experience any different?
  9. Hi, I've just acquired a tacx flow and would like to do intervals based on power. The web has very little information in this regard (i.e using tacx flow). Has anyone got an example workout? Also do you use slope or ergo mode? Thanks
  10. if we are intelligent enough, we'd forget about this buffoon. Surely there are more important things to worry about. Family, kids ect..
  11. Hi, Iv'e got an entry level Shimano wheelset on my Scott S20 (105 groupset). I'm considering upgrading to the Eastons EA90 SLX wheelset which I constantly hear is great. Is there any performance to be gained by doing this? Will my average speed increase? Will this assist in climbing? Thankscapeofstorms2010-03-18 01:15:20
  12. All I'm saying, is that I,ve seen better crowd support at the two oceans and comrades
  13. Hi, I went into my first Argus with high expectations. The finish appeared to be an anti climax. People milling around, some not knowing where to get their medals Certainly no atmosphere at the finish. Maybe it's my imagination,but I expected more crowd support along the road
  14. Bring some Tacx flows with. If you can better your web advertised price, then you most defnitely have a salecapeofstorms2010-03-10 15:52:40
  15. @ShaunH You must have read the thread by now http://www.carforums.co.za/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=19402&start=0 What concerns me is that there appears to be a deliberate attempt by certain motorist to maime cyclist. I hope this is not the case
  16. Any news on the 3 cyclist that was killed in Oudshoorn this morning by a motor vechile?
  17. I had similar issue with a new Fizik Arione and Thomson setapost. It turned out to be the seatpost. Clean the seatpost, lubricate with grease and re-insert
  18. hi, There seems a big difference betweem the time splits on the cycle tour website and that published in the latest edition of bicycling magazine. Hard to figure which one is more accurate. It could make a difference as to whether you achieve your set time or not
  19. Seems like a very nasty fall. Hope you recover soon
  20. Hi, Just a quick suggestion. Knee pain is normally caused by your seat being to low. Slowly raise it bit by bit
  21. HI, Just phoned them and yes the split calculator DOES include Boyes drive
  22. Tacx flow. Expensive but gives you the opportunity to train with power. Try and get one secondhand
  23. Hi, Despite a well orgainized event, only half the number of cyclist entered compared to Die Burger. One would have expected more considering that it was a seeded event. Was the entrance fee to high or was it because the event took place on a Saturday. It has been brought up in previous threads about the high cost of entering some of these fun rides. I hope the organisers of this event try to minimize the cost of entering this event in futur The high cost of late entry was absurd. Clearly they intended to discourage late entry
