Guest teh_runnah Posted October 12, 2010 Posted October 12, 2010 Come backs? Hellos again? Me too, but I've been a bit busy with the running side of things, especially after hurting the shoulder at the Nissan event at Cullinan. Not sure if I'll actually get back into the cycling thingy, except if it involves a tri bike My first love(sport) is still running, and cycling is more of a cross-training / play thing hence the rename etc. Only cycling I do at the moment is when I do a spinning class when the legs need a break from the running

Keep in contact. And do be scarce!!!!
predictor007 Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 Hey Trubie / Andy how you all doing Of course SBR is on for sure. Should be fun on the Tandem Sitting in cold and wet DBN getting ready for Amashova, Some advantage to tandem as we are starting first even before elites. Sure it wont last long as we start with a slight hill (17km) and all. Will update you all later and good luck to all for the ride. Marius
Cyclewizz Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 Hey, We were also down in DBN for the Amashova.How did it go ?

Marius Shova was a challenge allright!Just managed to dip under 3 by 6 mins, 1 sec(which was the goal), so cant complain too much. But - them hills hurt ever so slightly
Andyr249 Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 How was your Shova Predictor? Mine was great considering I did the Amashova Up Ride the day before. So got over 200km and about 3000m of climbing in my legs for the weekend. Got dropped at 40km and was losing big chunks of time. But took huge risks on the descents and made up a fair bit of time. Then joined the Standard Bank Express Train and pulled back loads of time to within about 6 minutes of Trubie and about a minute or so of Kid. Amashova is my favourite route of the cycling calendar.

But - them hills hurt ever so slightly Your goal was 3 hrs 6 mins and 1 sec and you rode that time. Well done old son. Not many I know can manage that one. Avery respectable time BTW. Hey Predictor. Long time bud. Most of my riding lately involves commuting. Have not had a decent bunch ride since January just before my accident. How did the rest of you all fare on the Shova? Kid? Anyone?

How did the rest of you all fare on the Shova? Kid? Anyone? Trubie's goal was a sub 3hr and he did a 2:54 (or something close to that) I did a 2:59, MiniMe did a 3:04 and Andy did a 3:00. Great race!!!!

Yes, after the killer Shova Up Ride the day before. I was very happy with my time! Slave, send me an email and I will send you the links to my Garmin data for both rides.
predictor007 Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Yo all of you, My leggs are back and I am smiling, Like I said before we planned a 40 and at the last moment decided to go long. The longest my daughter has done was 52km in another flat race. We started and kept on riding strong and we were aiming for a sub 4. She cramped the last 20km's and I kept on pedaling along. When we crossed the line on 3:45 I was quite emotional. She was in tears as I made the comment that this is her first century medal. 5 mins later she wanted to know what it takes to be pro. Watch this space I could not be happier and more proud as I know what she went through and came out standing on the other end. Took out my roadbike for the first time since Argus today for the race on Sat (97km) Looks like you all are really strong if times are anything to go by Well done to all of you and perhapd see some of you on Sat? Marius
Cyclewizz Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 Congrats on your result, and BIG UP to your daughter. We'll be there on Saturday (Trubie, Andy & I) but we doing the long loop 115km.If you see me along the way give me a tow....
Andyr249 Posted October 19, 2010 Posted October 19, 2010 That is awesome Marius! Well done to both you and your daughter! Hope you going to wait for us on Saturday!
