GuyP Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 The prize worth all the pain and suffering, the PBP2011 medal, each one engraved with the finisher's time. It's a big medal, and quite hefty too!

GuyP Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) The team SA jerseys. There were only about 16 of us between about 5200 participants from 55 countries Edited March 29, 2012 by GuyP
walkerr Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 That design would look nice for LEL - with the French flag swopped for Union Jack, or even separate England and Scotland flags. Also ... for me, as a Brit it means I get to have my home and birth country flags on my back ...
GuyP Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Yep, but while we're at it, maybe instead of jerseys, we should have team raincoats
walkerr Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Yep, but while we're at it, maybe instead of jerseys, we should have team raincoats Very true - you clearly have experience of summer in the UK !
walkerr Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 (edited) Maybe you should look at one of these ... http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/01455/water-bike_1455866i.jpg Edited March 29, 2012 by walkerr
GuyP Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 Very true - you clearly have experience of summer in the UK ! LOL, and being caught without a raincoat too many times!

The rain gets freezing cold in the dead of night (even in the daytime), even more so with the fatigue brought on by a few days in the saddle!
Slowbee Posted March 29, 2012 Posted March 29, 2012 will you guys stop it now! I cannot possibly manage to be this excited till next yr July ! is it to late to start training? onlu kidding
gogo@ Posted March 30, 2012 Posted March 30, 2012 will you guys stop it now! I cannot possibly manage to be this excited till next yr July ! is it to late to start training? onlu kiddingWent away to try do some work and then made the mistake of coming back to this thread... No no no no here we go again!!I also saw no SAns were finishers in LEL 2009 so what a great idea to have a whole team take it on in 2013!I think I prefer drinking meths shooters with beer to this feeling - finding a 2HR RIDE challenging enough right now!Time to start an LEL 2013 thread??
walkerr Posted April 1, 2012 Posted April 1, 2012 Time to start an LEL 2013 thread?? Done: https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/114754-lel-2013/
Grantc Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 I also saw no SAns were finishers in LEL 2009 so what a great idea to have a whole team take it on in 2013! wrong - Michael Devereux completed it.
gogo@ Posted April 2, 2012 Posted April 2, 2012 wrong - Michael Devereux completed it.So he did. My mistake. I missed that - SA being referred to as ZAF.
Natural Defender Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 I see there is a 200km Audax on 24 June. Anyone know where the ride is from? Cheers
walkerr Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 I think all the current SA Audax events in the Joburg guys. Think there should be info and contact details on main website http://www.audaxsa.co.za/ Last discussions I saw were that the Western Cape ones would recommence in Spring.
