FanieFiets Posted November 12, 2006 Share horrible race. Had NO juice in the legs. I let the group go after 10 km (or rather they left me). Decided on lekker oefen ride. Coughing op phelgm. Think I'm coming down with something. Or hope so otherwise my deteriating at a high speed! Heard ther were I crash early on in the Elites (guy i talked to was not happy about the Liberty riders?) and also in the C-D group a guys carbon bike got relocated all over paarl. The wine tasting afterwards were free and I only had a glass cab/merlot........highlight of my day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest colonel Posted November 12, 2006 Share The crash was in the 1st 2km, it was cause 1 guy moved over and caused a chain reaction of crashes it was nuts. Liberty ride where they want..........left......right..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BikeMax Posted November 12, 2006 Share Not a good race for me - that start saw me at over 300w for 19 mins - first 5 mins was higher than the pace I normally do 5 min intervals at Ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jean-Jay Posted November 12, 2006 Share yaw well ...... what can i say..... It seems i just dont have what it takes. I am giving up racing the leagues now, I will never race another league race in my life again. I train so hard and i it does not amount to sh!t. So rather than killing myself at something that will just never be, i am gonna start enjoying life and doing things with my buddies, maybe actually try and get myself a wife... who knows??? Was fun....sorta.... Ciao for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest colonel Posted November 12, 2006 Share Dude you dont ever give up on something, my Father taught me that when I crashed in a MX race and broke my collarbone and still made me finish the last lap. Dont ever give up, if you do it once you will do it again and if you do something do it 110% no half measures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spandeer 'n bietjie meer tyd op die gholfbaan, in en op die see en ophou om myself te moor deur die week. Klink nie te bad nie? Watter verskil gaan dit aan my maak of ek 23st of 123st of 423st kom?

Have a good evening Ciao for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nellie Posted November 12, 2006 Share Day started out hectic. Got out of bed coughing and sneezing and then had to convince my mom that i'm well enough to ride. Arrived at Simonsvlei only ten minutes before we had to start (dad forgot his chip and number, so turned back when we were already halfway!). So...needless to say I was not very prepared - had to do everything that i usually have 30 - 45minutes for in FastForward and that sorta messed up my morning for me. Masters and SWIFT didn't start out too fast, so had an allright warm up up and until they dropped me on about 30km (i think - don't ride with a spedo) Cruised to and over Hellshoogte on my own at a nice easy pace. Then got into a bunch when they came down after Hellies. When we got into Pniel they were CRAWLING...so i got irritated and went to the front. Suddenly had new legs...whipped up the pace a bit and from there on me and one other guy on a red Colnago took turns at the front and kept the pace quite high. hehehe - lost half of the bunch - damn wheelsuckers!(oops...am i beginning to sound like DR?) So in the end actually enjoyed it! * Just came to one conclusion...i don't like following someone else's pace - i want to set it! (hiehie - guess who's going to train harder from now on!)
