Trubie Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Where must I meet you on Saturday Nuwbie ? And what time ? I'll meet you at entrance to Magaliespark on Sat round 7:00?Just riding for an hour , with the missus
Narcosis Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Ok so my plans for the weekend and next week: Rode last night ended up with a nice easy cruise up Klipriver' date=' past two other cyclistsSaturday - bone cracker so planning to go out on the mountain bike and do a quiet 25 clicks, nice recovery ride potential for the slave.Sunday - leaving Mulbarton at 08h00 to do the cheese factory loop with Big Mark, probably about 50 clicks Wednesday 22nd April - Meeting Slave's alter egos Brian Ferry and David Gilmour and the other ex Roxy Music guys for a ride to pay penance and puke up a lung - think that this was at about 09h20 if I remember correctly.[/quote'] How long have you been riding for Narc ? I wanted to try this jawl out and bought a second hand bike (which apparently was two sizes too big for me according to Justin from Just Cycles ) about five days before the ninety four point seven last year, then rode about 25 clicks to the circus and then a long loop to hell and back up walkerville hill, circus and along chit chat on the way back, thats why I'm happy to cough my other lung for Slave ), and then rode the ninety four.
Trubie Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Narco - careful what you tell these guys.Approach it in a need to know basis, and you'll save your ass from some whipping.They will just use it against you later. Slave might be old and forgetful, but his cronies keep him well informed and reminds him continuesly.

I'll meet you at entrance to Magaliespark on Sat round 7:00?Just riding for an hour ' date=' with the missus I'm very tempted to say something here but I think it's best I keep quiet [img']https://assets.bikehub.co.za/legacy_images/smilies/smiley35.gif[/img] So all that I'll say is, enjoy your weekend and good luck with the race.NB: you'll be a lot lighter & quicker if you ride without your skiing outfit.
spaso9 Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 hi there guys... sorry been so scarce. work and polo taking up time. havnt been on the bike at all really... working tomm so wont be able to join you guys, and working wednesday... so training has to start all over again.
Slave Posted April 17, 2009 Author Posted April 17, 2009 Tough break Spaso. They tell me that work is the curse of the drinking class. Then I also remember some hubber has his signature as: If you want to live like a king, you have to work like a slave." All this work and polo is sure affecting your cycling. Looks like you'll have to comute to work and back by bike if you really want to ride. @Kid. Looks like you and Nuwbie are hooking up for a ride Saturday or have I got too much CO2 in my "brain" again. Can we confirm if we are meeting tomorrow for our ride or have you got other plans? I am going with the faster bunch tomorrow regardless, Birdman is flying along too. There seems to be much foncusion on my poor O2 starved brain to work out if Narco is in or out for Sunday. Wed is sorted, yes?
Narcosis Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 Weds is sorted for 07h20, Sunday sorted but would like to leave xumbugs at eight. Will bring some 02 for sunday

Ya Kid - corrupted mind!! I meant bike riding for an hour next to each other on the road. Will enjoy, thanx

Wed is sorted, yes?[/quote'] Yes I'm riding tomorrow, see you at Vaal & Klipies or at Xumbugs.The Walkerville hill is already hurting, how about a helping hand (aka push) up the hill ?? Nuwbie, is going away on a riding weekend with his SO
Slave Posted April 17, 2009 Author Posted April 17, 2009 Cool. So the way things are looking now is that I get to do two laps on Sunday. One with the intermediates and one with Narco and his buddy, Mark. Whole new world of pain. Kid, that Lido hill is really not that bad. Been up there a few times now and while it hurts, the pain goes away fairly soon. You should do that hill up towards Mondeor for some real pain,or try Camaro. Eish, I can still feel that pain.
Narcosis Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 came down Comaro on the mountain bike this morning at 05h30 - nearly had a hard attack when the camera went off
Slave Posted April 17, 2009 Author Posted April 17, 2009 We went down there on Wed and I hit 86 odd (or close to it) and it never triggered the camera. (I ride that old steel peejou.) So what speed you get going down the mineshaft?

[/quote'] S2L, I know you fast but if you do the small loop from Xumbugs and back to Xumbugs in 1 hour, I'll call the medics (Groups leave around 7am and Narc wants to leave at 8am)

So what speed you get going down the mineshaft? Been down there at around 95 and never went off, was told it wasn't possible to set it off with a bicycle ........ maybe with an MTB it can then!
Slave Posted April 17, 2009 Author Posted April 17, 2009 Ah kid, we have been discussing this in secret and I'm meetng him at 8h30 now for round number two. I know I'm not that fast even though everyone else knew that long time ago and it took me a while to cotton onto the facts.
Cyclewizz Posted April 17, 2009 Posted April 17, 2009 came down Comaro on the mountain bike this morning at 05h30 - nearly had a hard attack when the camera went off What you meant to say, was that you woke up at 5h30 ?
