GreyOwl3.0 Posted June 24, 2009 Posted June 24, 2009 Technique for Comaro is simple...Slave holds on to the side of my car...I drive at 80kph up to the steep part of Comaro...Slave lets go at my command and has to try maintain as much speed as possible till the traffic lights at the top!! This is also known as the rapid decelleration test! Do Comaro like this 10times and you'll soon learn there is nothing to fear with just riding it in a normal capacity!! My training techniques have been known to be a tad extreme and even more peculiar!! (and to be honest I am not sure if they do work!)

Guest Agteros Posted June 24, 2009 Posted June 24, 2009 If I can walk on Sunday, I'll join the club for a ride (C bunch might be as fast as I can go...), if I cannot walk... well then a few easy MTB kms at Northern Farm should do the trick to loosen then legs for the running on Monday
GreyOwl3.0 Posted June 24, 2009 Posted June 24, 2009 For sure Delgado! Only problem is, Obree's eccentric training seemed to pay off...mine just gets me laughed at!

Slave Posted July 2, 2009 Author Posted July 2, 2009 Dudes, I am racing on Sunday and looking to go for a gentle mid morning ride on Saturday. Something in the order of about 50 to 60 k's. Nothing hectic or fast. Anyone joining me. (Nahh, I am going to stay away from the usual suspects on Saturday. Rather ride later when it's a tad warmer.) GOv2.0, you into this one buddy. How 'bout you kid? You can sleep late and still have a hentle ride a bit later when the sun is shining.
Slave Posted July 3, 2009 Author Posted July 3, 2009 Shawn I was thinking about say 8 ish. Originally wanted to go out at 9 but I have a meeting with a customer at 11 so I have to get back in time to tart myself up for the meeting. At least it will be slightly warmer at 8. Plan is to do the short loop, and instead of turning off on JG Strydom, we proceed back to Xumbugs and then back along Swartkoppies. That route will give me just shy of 60.  Not looking to go hard as I am racing on Sunday.
Trubie Posted July 3, 2009 Posted July 3, 2009 I am going to do the short loop , back to Swartkoppies at 7:30!!Cause I have a race on against my arch enemy on Sunday!!Â
Slave Posted July 3, 2009 Author Posted July 3, 2009 Yeah, 40 k's on Sunday. (Don't laugh dude.)Â Trubie entered himself and his Mrs and his plan was to ride the 40 with her. Now Mrs. Trubie is not riding Sunday so I will ride in her place. Â Not going to go through substitutions or wear a timing chip for that matter.
Shawn A Posted July 3, 2009 Posted July 3, 2009 Ok... luckily the route is fairly flat, the only thing their is th wind..
Trubie Posted July 3, 2009 Posted July 3, 2009 so ride in the front slave, or avoid the beans on sat evethat way, no wind
Slave Posted July 3, 2009 Author Posted July 3, 2009 I am going to do the short loop ' date=' back to Swartkoppies at 7:30!! Cause I have a race on against my arch enemy on Sunday!! [/quote']  Ahhh, so you also racing your alter ego. Or when did Andy become an enemy? (I know he hails from the norf and all, but like dude, chillax. He aint that bad. He's actually quite a cool dude for someone from out there.) BB, make some room in that trench bud, I need to execute a diving roll for cover when the bullets start flying. Was cool seeing you on the road yesterday, so sorry I couldn't chat, I had an agenda.

I wasnt planning on racing myself either.I was actually refering to you, as I know that extreme training regime will start bearing fruit soon!! Â
