Loose cog Posted February 20, 2015 Share Thanks. Guess wrapping a short piece of old chain on the sprocket may prevent damage of the sprocket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cycho Posted February 20, 2015 Share Thanks. Guess wrapping a short piece of old chain on the sprocket may prevent damage of the sprocket? If it's a steel sprocket, it tends not to do anything to it, even without chain - grips just on the tip of the teeth... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imploder Posted February 23, 2015 Share So guys.... anyone been back to the track after the track day in December?I'm actually waiting for the Gauteng Road season to end. Maybe VWE can run another beginners/intro session before May. Then after May, i'll start doing some races. How about you? You been back?

Trackie Posted February 23, 2015 Share The work done by Martin and Jeremy with the VWE Academy is impressive, and sorely needed. Makes me want to dust off my bike and join in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumbleweed Posted February 23, 2015 Share The work done by Martin and Jeremy with the VWE Academy is impressive, and sorely needed. Makes me want to dust off my bike and join in!Spent Sunday morning in the team car with Jezza, who was looking after the VWE trackies at Carnival. He's so enthusiastic about the academy! On a side note, managed to hijack a telly at my local pub to watch the Madison final at worlds later that afternoon - pissing off some Liverpool supporters! :-) What a spectacle! Almost had me heading home to put some drops back on my fixie and joining Jezza, Martin and the guys at HNP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnow Posted April 7, 2015 Share Is anyone going to be going as a spectator to the Champs? There doesn't seem to be a lot after 17:00. Think i might go past on Saturday or Friday afternoon. Any specific events anyone recommends watching? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtr1 Posted April 7, 2015 Share Saturday will be great with Madison finishing the day. Also lots of Elite racing and Keirin. But every day has good racing coveting ages and events. Mainly Time trials and pursuits today, sprints tomorrow. But check www.cyclingsa.com for schedule under track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cargyrl Posted June 3, 2015 Share I saw the coolest thing today, on the CSA website on the SA Track Champs page, on the banner is a photo of one of the best female trackie cyclists in South Africa ... so proud!

Cargyrl Posted June 4, 2015 Share Contact Sheldon Bole, he is quite involved in the Pilditch scene. On facebook there is a intro to track cycling being hosted by the Pilditch group. That is where I learnt to ride! What fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThxPilditch is a crazy track. One of the steepest bankings in the world. Can be quite a scary place to learn track cycling. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
