Wannabe Posted February 11, 2012 Share Depends what photo software you have on your pc? Most will have one of these two options - both work equally well:Find the option similar to 'Save for Web'or find the option to resize and just drop the DPI (or resolution) to 72kbG Tx, will give it a go.

dommisse Posted February 11, 2012 Share I was in A and the group did not want to get going - it was like they were riding for positions from the 1st km! I took a few pulls in front and then decided f... this as there were about 60 sitting behind just sucking Edited February 11, 2012 by dommisse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceres Posted February 11, 2012 Share My dad rode in B and they caught A on 20km, apparently A just started slowly...The whole of B caught A by the way, not just some front guys. Ok cool, no wonder the group was so big, too big actually for those narrow roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big JD Posted February 11, 2012 Share I was in C an it appeared to be a decent bunch. A few Stars in training riders weaving around erratically but no more so than usual... I managed to stay in the top 10/15 riders for 110kms and then got swallowed by the climbers over Vissershoek for the last couple of km's, albeit in a decent time. Rain was hectic at times but not too much carnage in a generally well organised bunch. Think Bike Marshall did an awesome job patrolling the white line and getting passing traffic to slow up.

BigJD i was in C with you and i must say the group were very well behaved, some of the B riders that we swollowed up were even commenting on it.I worked too hard up front on the Malmesbury road back to the silos with the result that i lost the bunch at about 105k;s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiny K Posted February 12, 2012 Share I heard that they changed the 1min start gap to 30sec further down the seeding letters. Groups catching each other in a short sapce of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your comments about the Stars in Training group and their erratic behaviour could be valid for your race on Saturday, but I am part of that group and started in B yesterday and I must admit that I am shocked at the actions of many of the fellow riders (not part of the Stars in Training Group) during the race. There were a few times that I was feeling like dishing out some “warm klappe” of my own. So, I think that the problem is a lot wider than just the Stars in Training Group. I clearly expected the skills of riders starting in A to be much better than what they are displaying. There are just riders that have no idea!!!

Jaco-fiets Posted February 12, 2012 Share I heard that they changed the 1min start gap to 30sec further down the seeding letters. Groups catching each other in a short sapce of time. Hey Buddy! Are you ok after your realestate shopping yesterday? You came past like a jet. When we turned left at the fruitsellers i climbed out of the group. I knew then it was going to be a looong day in the saddle. Dont think i will ask for a re seeding anymore. Its clear that my current 6hrs a week is not nearly enough to ride in the A-C bunch. On your comment: Changing the gap to 30sec is a bit dangerous. Its a huge carrot for the bunches to chase each other and you will end up with huuugggge bunches and more crashes. Did'nt this issue come up a year or 2 ago at the Durbanville race when they had those serious crashes? I would have thought they would learn from such mistakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
