  1. Great well worded argument, I can really see the reasoning behind your point of view
  2. Probably since he has had 2 failed attempts while hyping it up and saying how easy it would be for him? Just asking him to put his money where his mouth is so to speak. Easy to say something without having done it once
  3. Have to agree with this, my dog snapped one of the cables on my road shoe that looks exactly the same, I contacted the same people and I got 2 sets of replacements for both sides. Such good service is hard to come by
  4. Never saw them till someone came scurrying past with them after A batch was supposed to start. Then suddenly they were held in the air. Considering there was no signage whatsoever, I'm not really surprised no one waited behind the gate. Would be far easier to line the people up in the massive open area before the gates, maybe have some signs? Maybe a speaker so that the people can hear the announcements. Not really sure it's the cyclists fault, we are sheep, and when one person goes forward we all follow, regardless of what batch you are in. I blame FOMO
  5. Was a good race, felt quite safe for 99% of the race. Just a crossing in the beginning somewhere was a bit hectic with Metro struggling to control taxis and so on, but further more perfect. Start area could do with some improvement though. They only pitched up with the boards with the batches on it at like 7:30, looks like someone forgot them. After that the start was much better. Had the usual idiots slipping into the earlier batches, but nothing new there. Any idea why we started late?
  6. Quick question with regards to the Two Oceans, I'm coming from Blouberg side for the half marathon. Any recommendations as to where to park?
  7. Damn, and there I was getting all excited and stuff
  8. Point taken
  9. Has anyone seen the route profile for this race? Flat as a pancake
  10. So forever then?
  11. Review tab > Unprotect sheet
  12. I presume more this than anything else
  13. Same could be applied to the Comrades? What do they achieve by enforcing the cutoff? And mind you, that's for athlete's that actually have to qualify, not just rock up and ride If you just looking to complete the route, and get the medal, surely a result on an website won't detract from that?
  14. And if you don't want to put it over the chip, wrapping it around the mounting area before putting the chip on works as well
  15. Wow, you actually typed and posted this without realising what an absolute twat you sound like? That's impressive. Realistically only the pro's win anything, so with your flawed logic, ebikes are fine in anything after that batch.
  16. Before 2017, we never even considered it being cancelled, since then all we do is predict a cancellation. Based on 1 cancellation and 1 shortening, as apparently that created precedent.
  17. Besides Cape Point, which is quite a distance from where we ride, it doesn't look too hectic. Definitely not what they were predicting 2 years ago.
  18. I hope no one quotes you on this pretty sure stance you are taking. Well, so far the only thing in common that you are stating with 2017 is that there will be wind. . . The civic center start is gone, and most of the other things you state only happened on the day of the race. . . So yeah, enjoy your pessimism bro, they said the same thing last year. . .
  19. Same here, it's a nice middle ground. Plus then it is out of the way and we can enjoy the rest of the day. Probably be dead, as we are leaving tomorrow night, but it helps to avoid the selling tactics of the expo when you look like a zombie
  20. We therefore expect from you a post bitching and moaning about the goodie bag and the rest of the expo please.
  21. So, whose going to the expo tomorrow? At least it will be a better start than last year seeing as the numbers will be pre-printed.
  22. These words I have highlighted don't fit together. . . .
