Shebeen Posted February 28, 2020 Share How are we donating ? Everyone putting into one pot, or you just going to trust those who "saying it" to do the honesty system thing?i think it's easy enough to just do it via here - https://capespca.co.za/donate/ just put something CTCTbmx related in your payment reference and they'll pick it up Duane_Bosch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EddieV Posted February 28, 2020 Share I have a BMX for you ... but doubt the gear-ratio (and pedal size) will work for you. Maybe someone has a larger chainring and 1/2" axle flats laying around. Regardless of whether you can use it, I'll donate it to the Tears Charity shop in Lakeside if you attempted the challenge. https://bikehub.co.za/classifieds/item/bmx-bikes/391911/bmx-haro-f2 Jako De Wet, samson99, Wayne pudding Mol and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FootballingCyclist Posted February 28, 2020 Share I think I may have missed your start time and what batch you'll be in?? Also perhaps Sunday morning take a stroll out to Jubilee if you have located your bike by then as there is a "gathering" where Wondercrete are handing out Koesisters and whatever and perhaps we can share your plan and get a few more guys onboard??

Depending on bike availability etc it looks like this might be a train... a pain train! 28kph gets us home, just. Gear ratio is going to be key.....

Jewbacca Posted February 28, 2020 Share I have a bolt on 36 narrow wide somewhere if you need it. In Tokai. Don't know BCD but it is a Woolftooth.Thanks Greg! I will get in touch if I need anything... I was remembering our epic battle to win the SS prize at The old Gravel Travel race Wellington/Bainskloof the other day. Good times!

I was going to start at 3:1 and work from there. That was my go to gear on the 700c SS and lapped up the Argus route comfortably.

Wayne pudding Mol Posted February 28, 2020 Share Well this started out as a lark and has turned into two worthwhile causes - bikehub entertainment and the SPCA I think for ref on donations lets give credit where credit is due - Jewbaccas BMX https://capespca.co.za/donate/ For those out there offering any manner of making this easier for him, please stop. Buckled wheels, threaded cranks and a rusty BMX is the sort of thing he is looking for I look forward to the photos and to a pleasant CTCT on a big boy bike with nice big wheels with loads of gears Jewbacca and peetwindhoek 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwissVan Posted February 28, 2020 Share @Jewbacca, this is an awesome and ludicrous challenge I am going to give you another 9 minutes - The dogs and cats get 5k from me + 500 from @NC_lurker for a sub 4 I will drop the amount to 2500 for a 4 - 430, and regardless of your time, if you do the CTCT on a BMX, I will donate 1500 to the SPCA anyone else is welcome to chip in to see Jewbacca bmx to gloryRight said Fred If it’s for the SPCA or any animal charity , I’ll equal your offer????
