Stephaans Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 any idea where we can get the stages/highlights?
Swart Kat Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014    Well 30% of the field are on fully sponsord tickets and this excludes the pros. Then sponsor me and u, Team Dick & Harry......
Swart Kat Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Clearly this means a lot to Platt. Looks very emotional. .aaah if I were there I would hug him
Swart Kat Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Â Oops sorry! His eyes r just eina from all the mud, thats no crying......
Gen Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) what would max say to that? Aaag.. I would hug him too.. cause they fought hard today and are African leaders again, as well as the leading Hubber .. (added after he had cleaned up) o Edited March 25, 2014 by Gen Wannabe 1
Brent Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 (edited) While watching the highlights on DSTV, I noticed that one of the riders was dealing with a tyre/puncture issue.It appeared as though he had one of those foam rubber perma tubes in his tyre. It was blue-ish in colour and certainly had the appearance of a shaped foam type item. Am I mistaken or does one get light blue coloured MTB tubes ? With a full suspension bike where the suspension/rebound can be adjusted to take into account the tyre hardness (read tyre pressure when using air).....can one in fact ride with a permatube ?

Can't really carry a permatube in the back pockets.
Brent Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 I also noted that but I do think its a tube. Can't really carry a permatube in the back pockets. True, but then again, he might have started the stage with it in and was only reseating a tyre that was problematic

GoLefty!! Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Today would be a good day to have a bike with a sealed gearbox.  the now much forgotten to the S-strike riding crowd and called Rohloff...  <i hear keyboards going crazy>
Danger Dassie Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 I also noted that but I do think its a tube. Can't really carry a permatube in the back pockets. Most likely a latex tube, they're that colour. Ai yi yai ,,,,
BarHugger Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 High lights pic grabs......sorry about quality Tube...... stratus5 1
Brian Fantana Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014  Most likely a latex tube, they're that colour. Ai yi yai ,,,, Yes, the latex tubes Topeak Ergon riders use is a Lakata thing. For some reason he loves latex tubes.
Danger Dassie Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 Yes, the latex tubes Topeak Ergon riders use is a Lakata thing. For some reason he loves latex tubes. Flashbacks of a certain Epic with KE, latex tubes, carbon rims .... bam
