  1. Hahaha thanks Nick!! We will see you there - on gravel bikes too
  2. Very excited for Saturday But I am between a gravel bike and mtb. How suitable is this event for gravel bikes??
  3. Are you guys doing a Savage ladies team and a Savage mixed team?
  4. You have a strange way of showing it
  5. THIS ^ I dropped many guys Chappies and Suikerbossie in 1H but they caught me again on the downhills. At 57kg I am not exactly a downhill specialist haha
  6. Well for example, if she was seeded incorrectly due to not having done any seeding races and therefore being stronger than the bunch, then I would say absolutely. I think you also underestimate how fast some ladies actually are on the climbs
  7. Exactly. And why should it matter if it's a lady? Are some men so insecure that they can't handle the idea that a woman may actually be stronger and faster than them?
  8. The shorter route was an invitational for the racing ELITE ladies. I am not sure that riders from 7B and 6G would have qualified for that route
  9. Appreciate the edit hahaha!! I finished with my team as the only lady - all 12 across the line in 6:06 What a great day out!!!
  10. That hill is MEAN
  11. Is there live streaming available anywhere?
  12. Is there live streaming available anywhere?
  13. I have 170mm on my race bike and when I put a new groupset on my training bike, 172.5mm was fitted erroneously. I am 1,65m and found that on very steep climbs I really struggled to turn the pedals. I have had the crank arm changed back to 170mm and find climbing much easier. It may all just be in my head, but it works for me
  14. Do it Patch. We are coming up from the Fairest...which after today, I am doubly excited about!!
  15. Very weird. I have emailed them so hopefully it gets sorted out tomorrow
  16. Mamil I also can't find an entry knoppie for the Cyclo Sportif event
  17. Please tell us what decision you would have taken given all the circumstances this morning. Please also tell us why this is "weak planning".
  18. The elites got blown over as they started under the civic center. They went to the end of blue route and it's a neutral ride back to the start as I understand.
  19. If this is what CTCT calls "extreme weather" I shudder to think what they will make of Sunday's forecast ????
  20. S-Works tyres the best I have ridden on. Super fast
  21. Thanks - was also wondering about registration!!!
  22. Can I ask why you haven't included a few ladies sizes in your cycling jerseys? It is so hard to find attractive, well-fitting and good quality ladies kitten SA. Even a men's small will be too large for me. Will you consider bringing in a few ladies sizes?
  23. Amazing! What a bike rider Well done!!!
  24. Good luck guys. I am giving this one a miss - not feeling gung ho enough for gravel this weekend!
