Ha Ha Kieran Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 I loved the mountains! Even went out my way to find some closer to home for the mid week rides! Found a beauty kicks up to a max 22% at one stage!
predictor Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 When I did my first ever road ride with my younger boet and my best friend on my R1000 Game MTB, I got dropped on the first hill on our planned 40km loop. They actually had to turn around and come fetch me. Humilty is not always in my nature and I love to compete so when we got back home, I took a shower and went and bought myself an RC4000 for R5000. I promised myself that these two okes at least will NEVER again turn around for me. I LOVE the mountains now and still working on strenght and thus not quite there yet and that is why I love SBR. I have turned around for both of them in the recent past hehehe So short answer is YEAH Baby bring em on
Cyclewizz Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 So does that mean you still in for Saturday ?We meeting in the parking lot a 7am.
Slave Posted November 25, 2009 Author Posted November 25, 2009 K you chop. Are you riding up and down Camaro? You silly child. Been there done that. Will be doing it again sometimein not too distant future.Come ride with me one arvie. I can introduce you to a few hills around our area that means you have to go to the reserve a bit less often. Andy, hills hurt dude. I can't like pain! Especially my own.
predictor Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Wild horses could not drag me away from SBR Will be there even in the rain Bit scared of thunder up in the hills but no ja. Will see when we get to the day
Slave Posted November 25, 2009 Author Posted November 25, 2009 Jawellno fine Predictor. You are a hard core dude and scare me witless. I agree, hills are an important part of training by is rain really such an important component? I guess that's why I missed my three hour 94.7 time by 14 minutes. Apparettly, I lack the dedication it takes to be a top cyclist. It's soo easy to get stuck in and be content with mediocrity. (I speak of myself here.) Easier to stay home and sleep late. Easier to ride outside the reserve and take on lesser hills.
Ha Ha Kieran Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Nope it's not Comaro... But It is not too far from there... Will gladly join you on an Arvie ride when i'm not working the late shifts.
Andyr249 Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Wild horses could not drag me away from SBR Will be there even in the rain Bit scared of thunder up in the hills but no ja. Will see when we get to the day Well put! Very well put!! I love SBR, but that is widely known already! Rain is a big part of training. What you going to do if it rains halfway throught the Fast One? You got to know how to handle your bike in the wet. Ok, so the day is fast approaching. Who does our group consist of? Predictor, have you ridden with any of these guys or Nance before?
Cyclewizz Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Predictor has ridden with Trubie before (short Nampak loop) Current group for the 28th:Indigo KidMini MeAndyPredictorNancy DrewJoe Slow ????TBC
GreyOwl3.0 Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Oi! I've also ridden with the Predictor dude! He's strong! Actually...of all of the named convicts here, the only chap I have not had the pleasure of meeting/riding with is Andyr249...
Ha Ha Kieran Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 I will still see you guys on Sat... Not missing out on SBR... Even if it means doing it Midday!
predictor Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Soo looking forward too meeting all of you and when I did the short loop I only ended up talking to Trubie right at the end. i did my first SBR last year Dec and ended up pushing my Bike on the last hill while cramping . Thus I can say that SBR makes anyone strong

Like Grey said did the short loop once before
