Help.Me. Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 Not advice but if your cycling friends says to you they haven't being on the b8ke for months or mumble a date when he last was on the bike and then kick your @ss properly.... i really hate that even if they are telling the truth!!!
Audible Anarchy Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 I was convinced to enter the Nissan Trailseeker full marathon at Van Gaalens as my first MTB race with practically Zero technical offroad skills (I was racing A bunch on the road at the time and had my first MTB for about 3 weeks). "Ag, you're fit man. Its not technical, you will be fine..." I came third last in 6 point something hours I think. I will never forget that feeling of my bubble bursting when I realised I had to go up the other (greek church) side of the valley too.
Patchelicious Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 An actual real bit of worst advice ever..... "The Desert Dash is a gravel road race, fit narrow fast rolling tyres and pump them hard"..... jeeeeeesus!!
Stevo9119 Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 Only the first 30km of the Amashova is climbing, the rest is downhill to the finish.

Fat Boab Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 Anything that comes out of the mouth of a Cycle Lab sales person... Further to this, a couple of years ago I was looking for some inner tubes at CL. Had an amusing 5 mins where the sales dude and another random customer tried very hard to get me to convert to tubeless. Eventually I revealed I was a roadie....exit 2 red-faced dudes.
Patchelicious Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 "use WD40 or Q20 " It does work, but she said that it stung a bit the first few times.
Patchelicious Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 Only the first 30km of the Amashova is climbing, the rest is downhill to the finish.But it is....
