Agteros Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 You cut me deep therein lies your problem Deep cuts will not hold air Use real UST tyres, and stop chasing the scale downwards
awesme Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 I normally do Green, sometimes the full, sometimes with 1 or 2 chicken bits added, sometimes I'll do what I call Green with 2 chickens and a bull run added, ending at 20km. at Thaba I do yellow 2, 14km, average seems to be about 13-15km/h, allot moe hills/climbs. G Average speed will definately not be over 20km/h. Should get to block house around 9:30 ish .... Your 15-17 km/h average at Rietvlei .... What route is that on ?
awesme Posted May 10, 2012 Posted May 10, 2012 clearly the wheels are coming off here... G therein lies your problem Deep cuts will not hold air Use real UST tyres, and stop chasing the scale downwards
