  1. I cant remember my password. 🤫
  2. It’s interesting that Vaugthers now Tests VO2 as a value where before he says he didn’t and it’s not important with riders.
  3. I run these tyres and have never had a flat, use the really soft compound and no issues at all. I came back to SA to see my mom and flatted 15min into the 1st ride. There no car bottle throwing championships in Europe......
  4. It’s from Slovenia, A lot closer than the universe
  5. AB make an incredible product that are all based off research and fact based. chainrings work and do what they say, they last and their chain lube is Next level
  6. Madagascar has King Julian, wonder if you have to update his programs cause his hand gets tired?
  7. Had to leave, space was too crowded
  8. In SA, Everyone thinks they a coach.
  9. Yip, I filled it out for the OP
  10. Ofcourse you can, This would be the most important time to make sure training is correct going into an event. make sure this period is correct so the rider for example carries as little fatigue from cramming into the event and making sure their taper is correct. Last thing I would want to do to any athlete is cram their training prescription regardless how close they are to the event. but that’s me, each to their own
  11. It would depend what their availability is and build accordingly making sure load is required for what we want to achieve. but no, I would not give someone increased hours and intensity at the same time. I would plan and periodise accordingly. People finish epic on 8-10hrs a week, build the intensity in correctly to create the required stress and you prescribing correctly.
  12. If you doing it this way, your training prescription is wrong and planned incorrectly from the offset.
  13. Intensity increases, volume decreases. riding more doesn’t always give you gains if a coach or anyone tells you they will give you a 10% improvement is not telling the truth, sure an improvement is achievable but a value is a sales pitch. Finding 2 % in a year or 6% over 2 years is sometimes all that is achievable or if there is no % improvement then you want consistency which is a big improvement.
  14. He is riding for UAE next year, not sure how that was in media. He was in our lab in Girona on Friday testing.
  15. Correctly said, or they don’t have to announce it at all and simply show up at their 1st race in their new threads. social media has created that “we demand or have the right to know” I often get asked some pretty personal questions and when I don’t answer I have received abuse. However my reply is typically always “if you were meant to know this information you would have it and how did you get my number to WhatsApp me this?”
  16. Nanotime and imbuko are joining as 1 team sponsor wise for 2022
  17. 2H30 behind the Elite mens winners 30min behind Elite women's winners 30min behind SV men They gonna have to dab here and there alot harder. 😀 Great for them though, good to try new disciplines.

  20. Nope
  21. Barloworld was British registered.
  22. thanks for that, it seems trivial for that to be a reason.
  23. Just cut that off and connect to a normal plug with the wiring.
