Bit disappointing that DSTV aren't showing it live on Saturday

Where do you think he will end up? I think he will stay where he is.

Like him or not he would obviously of been a contender. All the boxes were ticked and with a strong team. But thats history now.

I see Robbie Hunter is riding

R5000

I wonder if Cavendish has been watching how impressive Team Sky have been. Looks like they do have a lead out train he could use. I think he will be moving there next season.

Doing the half. Going for sub 2hrs. Last yeat 2.06 from E. Seeded in C this year but I haven't done any fitness since the argus

Offical advice from Polar: Stick the strap in a sock and wash in the washing machine.

It must be the same crash, like you say we were going 40km/hr that's why I didn't look.

Did anyone see the crash near Bakoven (I think)? A guy riding next to me went down hard and I heard a big noise behind me. I started in M but not sure which riders were with me. It would of been around 10.15am I hope no one was badly hurt as it sounded terrible.

3:27 for me... Happy with that.

I'm in M but my lack of training could let me down.

M for me

Hopefully this will get me round the Cape Cobra on Sun day

Red Hill is best, very quiet. And with all the turns you feel like you're on alpe d'huez

Spoke to Outsurance and they said they also deal with Union Cycles. But Union Cycles offered me a GTR Carbon Expert. Phoned Outsurance and asked for the money... Now I'm waiting for them to call me back.

OK, I'll see if they let me shop around. What kind of road bikes do you have for R30,000?

Thanks for your comments guys, I'm going give them a ring and see if I can change shops.

My insurance company arranged Cyclelab, not sure if I can ask to buy from someone else. I don't know much about Cyclelab, can they order in any bike? The assistant didn't mention that.

I have 30 grand to buy a road bike from Cyclelab (insurance pay out). Problem is their stock seems limited and the guy is trying to sell me a KTM, but I don't know anything about the make. There is a Trek 5.2 for R33,500 but it means paying the extra, which I didn't really want to do. Any ideas?
