  1. Maybe the seller is a hubber and new we were onto him???
  2. Or the Canyon Aero...3,299 Euro
  3. I like the way it's advertised as a: Bianchi Infinito Ultegra Suspension Mountain Bik
  4. Am I being blonde - but what are the prices like?
  5. No you can't - you must ride at the back and spend the time carefully thinking about what you hav just done
  6. This is actually quite nice... well done!
  7. From now AirBender is banished to the back of the Durbanville Area Roadies peleton...
  8. I'm not a big Scott fan, but I like this more than the Mclaren Spez...
  9. Is this BigH by any chance?
  10. How can a bike be fast? Surely it's the oke pedalling the bike that makes it fast... Just a thought
  11. Baggy Man apparently finished in 16 hours and a bit of change... wow!
  12. OUCH OUCH OUCH!!!
  13. How choppy was that sea hey... felt like swimming in a washing machine.
  14. Feeling good as well, arrived in PE a few hours ago... strange thing is my race number as per my IM mag that came in the post says 348 - as per todays Herald my race number is 326... will be interesting to see what it actually is in the morning when i pick up my race pack (after the morning swim - anyone going?)
  15. I know many guys who served on the "border"... they are proud guys, who served their country and the cause - how ever right or wrong it was... it has left "scars", and it was hard, and they probably were never the same before going off to fight... War isn't for woosies... much like the Epic.
  16. yes there is - it was advertised on their facebook page. 6.15 and 6.30 (maybe one group if numbers are small). I won't be there thou - resting the legs for a little triathlon in PE this weekend
  17. There has been a bug in their system, corrupting their files for races from March onwards... we will have to start the new season with our old seedings if they can't get it sorted...
  18. That's gona be such an ugly bike
  19. In December last year I was priveledged enough to meet Manny Fumic (who is a cannondale factory rider)... he had both his 29er Flash, and his Scalpel here. i asked him how he finds the 29er, his response: "my 29er is nice for long jeep track climbs and non technical courses, but I love my scalpel - it's more fun to ride and more nimble on the techincal courses" I can't argue with a pro, so I'll stick to my 26inch mtb, train hard and kick your ass on your fancy it'll make me faster 29er... 'nough said!
  20. a nice mixture of young and the old then... I'm 348, or is it 384... something like that... Can't wait till Sunday!!! Let's all hook up at the race brief / pasta party (even if you don't stay for pasta). I'll be at PECS at 5:45 - will wait at the entrance for hubbers. How to recognize me - short hair, green adi shoes... probably a red sweater or tea shirt. C u guys there
  21. I'm sure they'll make good stuff... can't imagine them feeding 1000+ people and then we can't do IM coz we have the shizz... but then again... Good point fabes
  22. This one of the nicest routes for us oukes here in the North of the Mother City... Kayamandi is becoming the Wild West - had a friend who was hijacked outside Kayamandi yesterday, his friend who was driving the van past away due to his injuries... just sad sad sad sad
  23. Ooooopsie https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/102014-epic-stage-5-crash/
  24. If you are caught wearing a non Spec-Savers shirt (they use the finishers photo as proof) you become liable for full entry price... and yes - they are very strict about it and Mr Wolff hammers it down our throats at race briefing... rules are rules and these IM officials take no k@k... it just boils down to ethics - you take the discounted entry on the condition you wear the Spec Savers top, if you get DQ'd for being a tjop - you can't blame anyone but yourself. A guy was seriously wrapped over the knuckles last year for using his cellphone - he used the excuse he was calling his wife to fetch him... Mr Wolff's reply - "how is your wife gona fecth you, there are full road closures - yellow card - five minutes in the penalty tent for you"
