Trubie Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Andy, all great and that, but if the lab wants you to help the racers they better put their money / support where their mouths are.... things like the red racing team kit, help with entry fees, etc etc exactly what we are also saying...........
Guest agteros Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 exactly what we are also saying........... Yep, I'm another voice in the peanut gallery! So AndyR249 do as Trubie/Indigo says, and race for position.... THAT will be the only way to neutralise the 'team' with their 'ethics'. Kind of like forcing them to take you in and ONLY THEN they can tell/expect of you to do what they say/ask Till then, remember you bought the kit and paid the entry fee, so don't be sacrificial lamb for somebody else's ambitions!
PrincessHannah Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 who were you leading out andy? what was the winning time in A bunch anyway? the guys are right, if you sacrifce you for them then you will never make race team at the lab.
Andyr249 Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 I think you are all making an issue out if nothing here. It was a minor race, not the Tour de France, so I was happy to help a bit. And Hannah, since you are enjoying Mountain Biking why don't you join Nance and I on the Spruit sometime?

And Hannah, since you are enjoying Mountain Biking why don't you join Nance and I on the Spruit sometime? we are just trying to protect your interests here. No issues, no TDFMaybe for us this was similar to the TDF , so nothing minor about the race (for me at least)If you happy - you know we are, so
Trubie Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 who were you leading out andy? what was the winning time in A bunch anyway? the guys are right, if you sacrifce you for them then you will never make race team at the lab. winning time was 2:41:18 - between that and 2:41:54 50 riders crossed the line. So nothing in it really. We shouldnt even be worrying about the time anyway..........what makes my 2:41:22 better than the 2:41:54? Nothing really. It only says that 50/132 riders managed to stay together for 106k's, which says the race was an "easy" one.

I was happy so you happy so you can all let go now. winning time was 2:41:18 - between that and 2:41:54 50 riders crossed the line. So nothing in it really.

It only says that 50/132 riders managed to stay together for 106k's, which says the race was an "easy" one. So then what is the issue with my 2:41? I finished in the bunch of 50 odd so I am happy. In a minor race positions are not important. Time is. I would've worried if I had done a 2:45 though. But I didn't.

But I didn't. find a place in this thread where I said anything about yr time. I was saying a lot about your lead out , but yr time. Aikona wena............ get yr facts straight, or change yr wiring
Zeps Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 What you implying ?What's wrong with my 2:45 and plenty seconds ? Ok guys so I won't even mention my time then
Andyr249 Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 find a place in this thread where I said anything about yr time. I was saying a lot about your lead out , but yr time. Aikona wena............ get yr facts straight, or change yr wiring Not in this thread or anywhere else, but in other forums/media you and Kid have commented on my position in the bunch. But the whole group of 50 odd riders finished with basically a very similar time. As mentioned previously my goal was to finish in the same time as the front bunch of A and I did that. Ok guys so I won't even mention my time then Best you don't BigS, you might have Trubie, Kid and others giving you a hard time.
Guest agteros Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Ok guys so I won't even mention my time then Best you don't BigS, you might have Trubie, Kid and others giving you a hard time. Says he who brought times into the discussion ... BigS, I'll be quite as long as you don't play lead out man (except for Nance!)
Andyr249 Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 What you implying ?What's wrong with my 2:45 and plenty seconds ? Lots, it should've been 2:41 and few seconds!
Andyr249 Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Says he who brought times into the discussion ... BigS, I'll be quite as long as you don't play lead out man (except for Nance!) I didn't bring times into discussion. Originally PH did and Trubie took it further with his reply.
Cyclewizz Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Says he who brought times into the discussion ... BigS, I'll be quite as long as you don't play lead out man (except for Nance!) Well said. You making a lot of sense this week Ox, I take it all your levels are normal ?
