Trubie Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 Hi guys The Alberton group rides, is this MTB or road, Fiance and I are interested in doing some rod work on Saturdays, to get fit, we'll do Rietflei on Sundays. G awesme - Hi, and welcome to this thread. Bunch of loonies that hang out here, but some of us are not yet on that level. The rides are road, and leave at cnr Swartkoppies & Klipriver at 7:30 on saturdays (after winter 7:00) Its open to anyone, and there are groups of different abilities that ride together. Enjoy
NotSoBigBen Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 So what you all been up to this weekend huh? I guess some start racing tomorrow (them roadie, lycra clad posers! ) and others have an opportunity for an early week long ride tomorrow
Trubie Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 So what you all been up to this weekend huh? I guess some start racing tomorrow (them roadie, lycra clad posers! ) and others have an opportunity for an early week long ride tomorrow Nice training weekend for a change, first weekend in about 6 weeks without a race.... this bloody mtb stuff Did however take the family for a outing to Rietvlei, so had some nice easy yellow route riding for about 90 mins yest afternoon. Tmrw we start yes, Carousel, Sat is EPR, 20th - Lost City, then the Sept start with the D2D....... After seeing u on the TT bike, ur lycra comments makes me think of a word........., wait I'll get it now...........hyperactive......., no its not that .....hyperama, no..............(lightbulb) hypocrite
NotSoBigBen Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 :D :D :D :D Dude you should know me by now, despite my love of MTB races/training I do understand that there is very little like riding fast on a road bike. Be it alone against the clock or dealing with the 'strategy' of bunch riding! I got in 2 hrs easy MTB sat morning then the last road TT of the series Saturday afternoon, 3 hrs on the Walkerville course yesterday morning with Dangerous Dan. TT bike under wraps again and hanging from the rafters in the garage till next year! 3hr MTB ride tomorrow morning, EPR Randfontein MTB race Saturday - first race on 'Tikki' SS spin round Rietvlei lunchtime today for fun .....

Guest agteros Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 So what you all been up to this weekend huh? I guess some start racing tomorrow (them roadie, lycra clad posers! ) and others have an opportunity for an early week long ride tomorrow Me? I ordered some stuff from Chain Reaction Blackspire Mono Veloce Single Speed 7075 Series - 4-Bolt 104mm 32t BlackDa Bomb 9 To 1 Single Speed Kit 2012 - 16 & 18t OrangeAvid Juicy 3 Disc Brake Set - White 2011Fire Eye Iris-X Headset 2012 - OrangeI went for a spinning class on Sunday, AND followed up with one this morning. Oh and I scored a pair cheap Rudy glasses (wiff a gratis t-shirt) on the hub Amazed at how the people did not understand the rules of the 'auction' Realised that I should be fine to take up the running again despite the left leg feeling worse than the right leg, which is the troublesome one Oh yes...took the MTB in so the rear brakes can be sorted. Seems like somebody stole the brake fluid! a few months ago

Trubie Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 What is Queen Bree's hallowed turf??? hallowed ground that people with self destruction tendencies like u should stay far away from
Guest agteros Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 What is Queen Bree's hallowed turf??? HaHa - mmmmm if you don't know by now Hey Kieran, you have that dual suss MTB of yours yet? Wanna go tread on some hallowed ground with it? (Don't worry it is just a gravel road, no nasty rocks / single track etc) Who knows, maybe the queen herself with accompany us?
Down_and_Out Posted August 8, 2011 Posted August 8, 2011 Sorry if this is a double post but just want to find out if there is a group ride for the Mtb’s.Looking to ride the route to the block house but don’t want to ride alone for safety reasons....
