Guest colonel Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Just be patient Colonel. Where did you come? Do we really wanna know where colonel came? Well in the race today I attacked my moer off got in breaks got brought back' date=' got in a "altercation" with some clown explaining with Marescia what a mild gutter is and what racing is actually about and not bunch riding is going up a roller then almost got away with some guys but got brought back and then with my superior sprinting skill I have, got blown in the bunch sprint cause 65kg of raging fury sprints like a potted plant and finsihed in the bunch but I had a jol today for the 1st time in a long time so thank to the whole Cycleab bunch and Ronney from She-Cape for a good ride. But in all fairness Walser got 4th so our team did well. [/quote'] Christian is an animal! Congrats to him and the team on that one. Ya but the SOD sits in the group the whole time, Christian v Z and I bleed through our ears and he pops up in the last 500m.
Willehond Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Sounds like he knows what he's doing! Fun being a sprinter...
nellie Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 cause 65kg of raging fury sprints like a potted plant haha...someone's spending too much time with TitusTi!!!
THE BODY CENTRE Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Cool pic - thanks Twinney! (colonel is too shy to ask, but you don't maybe have of a pic him? White/blue kit - Bianchi .. ? Have a look, will you?) .... dash!
straatvark Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Christian v Z and I bleed through our ears I was just having a chat with the missus about what a casual pace was done by your bunch - and then the blue yerseys went off the front... (and the end of our freeride with you)
Willehond Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Marius, jou bliksem!!! Well done boet! You have to tell us what you ftp is. I AM IMPRESSED. 26ste nogal
Reg Lizard Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 I had one of my worst days ever on a bike. Seeded in D but started in F due to a puncture at the start Ended up starting with F. Got in a nice group over Hells and worked lekker up to the point where I got another puncture (4 way stop just past Wellington). Then met up with Poison Ivy who "gave" me a tube- thanks for that Poison Ivy. Then my special friend Hagar stopped while we where bussy exchanging tubes an he and Poison Ivy rode on. Thought my bad luck was over, wrong. 20 minutes later another puncture- luckily Hagar gave me one of his spare tubes- thanks Hagar It felt like I was on the road the whole day. But yeh, my riding time was just over 3 hours, but with all the punctures, officially 3h23 Oh and did I forget to tell you that I forgot my gloves while changing my first puncture at the start, so I was gloveless the entire race- felt like I was naked.
andre_ct Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 @ Reg Lizard .... one word .... Gatorskins the crappy part about the limited argus seeding events here in the cape, is that they gotta go smooth else your seeding sufferslost 15mins myself...so thats the way it goes
KevinV Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Bummer with the punctures guys, I saw many people struggling at the roadside. I was one of the lucky puncture-free riders!

Gatorskins the crappy part about the limited argus seeding events here in the cape' date=' is that they gotta go smooth else your seeding sufferslost 15mins myself...so thats the way it goes [/quote'] I ride with Gatorskins but I think it might be time to replace them- done just over 5500km on them.
Guttersnipe Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Was Subvets unusually slow or tactical on Sunday? My first time riding VA, and I kept on waiting for the vicious accelerations over the R44 rollers that would spit me out the back, but they never really came. Were the really strong teams riding Elites? Are people tired at the end of the year? Or was it just that in funride groups I tend to take plenty of turns on the front, while on sunday I was keeping my nose out of the wind and trying to learn the ropes?
Guest colonel Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 Pistadex, maybe come and do some attacks and try get away in a break, get on the front and bring a break back or throw gutters instead of sitting in the group hiding from everything and being pulled along to the end. About 12 of us made the racing upfront all morning and it was hard we all agreed at the end from Cyclelab team, She cape, Marsillio projects the rest all just sat on and did nothing but get a free ride and when you asked them to come through they pulled off but with 1km to go they came out for the sprint. Once again it amazes me to the end. Where you finish?? What also amazes me is that they had non licenced riders in VA if you had a PPA seeding that would qualify you for the league they threw you in??colonel2008-11-30 23:50:14

There were individuals making breaks and bringing riders back, not just teams if you noticed!
