dev null Posted September 11, 2013 Share I will be happy if I can loose some and get from 80kg to 75kg, which was my 'normal' weight before I hit the jolling 20s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TopFuel Posted September 11, 2013 Share On the black stuff, arm kinda landed on a fence... I guess you didn't find that fall very humerus. (Sorry). Glad you're able to give it a second go, have a stormer next year. Hopefully I'll get my act together (and a decent seeding) and match my talk of a sub 3.

GuyOnBike Posted September 20, 2013 Share This is going to be the first time I will be riding the Argus, so obvious anxiety and excitement at the same time. I am planning to ride it with my Mountain Bike using slicks of course, but wanted to find out what your thoughts are on this or if you've done it on a mtb before? Thanks!

RastaMan Posted September 20, 2013 Share Can be done on a MTB. But speaking from exp, I did the 94.7 last year on a MTB. Its rough. Rather consider borrowing a road bike or buying a second had one or even new. You can get very decent axis bikes for 2k. Only did will be an avg speed from 26-33 depending on ur fitness ofc Servetus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the ride is not as harsh if you are not used to 5-6 hours on the bike. the big tyres soak up the bumps. Slicks on your mtb will be fine dude. I was passed last year by many guys on mountain bikes with knobblies, and I was on a carbon road bike racing machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
