MaxUmis Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 Hey Nibs, do you think those cobbles are tarred yet? ... ... Nibs says "ride your bike"

Iron Midge Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 FL, any idea how many groups there are?

Frosty Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 CL for me. First race since February, so I guess i can't complain.
Frosty Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 FL, any idea how many groups there are?I did a late entry last year, and was placed in GL, and I know there were two long distance groups behind me before the shorter groups started.
Cyclewizz Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 CL for me. First race since February, so I guess i can't complain. But you a natural !!!!Guess we know who the winner of C bunch is ;-)
Jay_B Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 Also in EL group...the 7:57 start is kinda late Anyway...let's hope for a "NOT to bad" windy day...but wind there will be!!!Might have to bring the rain boots with for the forecasted Rain on Saturday My first race since 23 February...looking forward to it! Lets hope we get a solid group of guys and can work together through the wind... Its the only way to survive it. I think a solo effort in the wind predicted wont cut it.
Frosty Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 Hey Nibs, do you think those cobbles are tarred yet?......Nibs says "ride your bike"nibali on the cobbles tour de france.gifI've been watching Nibali, on the cobbles, for a while now - how much further do you think he has to go before he's finished?
Ryan Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 ahh. Thanks man. Was it 2 years ago we had serious rain/hail before and it was a mud patch? last year wasnt too bad. But still not lekker riding on the dirt. Last year they had graded the road so smooth that it may as well have been a tar road.
MaxUmis Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 I've been watching Nibali, on the cobbles, for a while now - how much further do you think he has to go before he's finished? Jong, when he reaches the 2m long paved section, you'll know he's close.
Frosty Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 But you a natural !!!!Guess we know who the winner of C bunch is ;-)Who's that? Certainly not me - I have other objectives in mind
Rotiringer Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 yup AL it is. Rasta man what time does AL start?
