J Wakefield Posted May 7, 2021 Share I've got this feeling that you know that a certain young gun of yours , is generating numbers Eskom would love to have I do not coach him anymore. When he went to cannondale he had to fall under the team coach but I can say we are still good mates. Our last hoorah was from 2014 to Last years World Cup podiums and SA champs. I wish him nothing but the best do to better than last year and excel.

DJuice Posted May 7, 2021 Share Isn't pocket rocket Pidcock also in the mix? I think so. Gonna be hot.I am interested in his bike.Know it is a BMC with XTR, but the wheels, from the photo’s can’t make out what brand they are?Looks almost like the superlight Syncros.

J Wakefield Posted May 7, 2021 Share Off topic, John are you at the Giro?No; I leave in 3 hours for an altitude camp then I go Dauphine and Tour de France. My calender is built or focused to the Tour. Then after I have a small break and finish with Roubaix I would really like to do Giro though it’s a great Tour Vishal72, DieselnDust, ChrisF and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mecheng89 Posted May 7, 2021 Share MVDP and Pidcock going to destroy N1NO. It's difficult to fathom how such a small body can generate so much power, Pidcock sure is an impressive rider. Not sure which ladies team I'm backing, I can't judge who is in form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairy Posted May 7, 2021 Share The best way to pick podium riders is to take the top 20 names, place them in a hat and draw your no 3, 4 & 5th positions .... No. 1 & 2 is a bit more of a challenge to get right, but take the top 5 riders, place their names in a hat and draw your riders from their Eldron, peetwindhoek, DieselnDust and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact I would suggest that you might be safer backing riders who have had some race time in their legs and using the short track as a final barometer of sorts for who *might* be in contention. Also throw potential Olympic qualification into the mix as well. The racing is going to be [emoji378][emoji378][emoji378][emoji378][emoji95][emoji95][emoji95][emoji95] and very very topsy turvy! If anything else unpredictability might be the only constant. Hairy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Wakefield Posted May 7, 2021 Share Damned ..... you live such a boring life and really need to get out and travel the world a little more It’s funny you say that but I’ve been lucky since 2005 to travel the world on someone else’s money due to my job and I’m truelly greatful for it. But - it’s not like I get to do a tourism tour each destination I go to and see a museum for example. It’s typically hotel rooms, busses, motor homes, motocross tracks or race routes. I try find something historical or what a town or so is known for when I arrive somewhere and get some basic histort and where a good coffee roasters or shop is. I’m not complaining but it’s definitely not a holiday. Underachiever, DJuice, Hilton. and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
