'Dale Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 Good going there, Wannabe... I've never heard this forgiving attitude towards the wind before. Good determination, Boet! :-)

ShortButFunky Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 Hi, where do you guys depart from? time? spd?
Wannabe Posted October 13, 2012 Posted October 13, 2012 Hi, where do you guys depart from? time? spd? It varies. If 'Dale calls the ride, it is before the birds have farted. I tend to ride at more civilised hours.Starting point also varies, but mostly from Mc Donalds in Wellingtons str, Durbanville. Speed normaly in the 25 -28km/h range. Depends on route and wind. You are welcome to join, just keep an eye on this thread.
Wannabe Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 Weather forecast for this weekend is a bit iffy, but unless it pours down with rain, I'm gonna do the Durbanville Highschool route on Saturday. Start is at traffic circle at School / Spar.Pace will not be too hot (avg 25 km /h), no one gets left behind. Start either 7h00 or 7h30.

Amazing to think that there'd be a 'rain warning' towards the end of October's weather forecast.
Wannabe Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 Yup, strange weather we're having. Yesterday almost perfect day, today crappy again.
Wannabe Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Weather forecast for Saturday is improving.Any takers for the Saturday LSD type ride on the Durbanville Highschool race route?
alsoran Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Weather forecast for Saturday is improving.Any takers for the Saturday LSD type ride on the Durbanville Highschool race route? According to windguru wind blowing with gusts between 45-62 kmh between 5 and 11
udxcob Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Eish, thats a bit strong, maybe i should go out on the electric mtb i saw at bike +
Wannabe Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 According to windguru wind blowing with gusts between 45-62 kmh between 5 and 11 That is a bit too strong. Hopefully it will improve as the week goes on. Really need to do at least one 100km ride this weekend.
alsoran Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 That is a bit too strong. Hopefully it will improve as the week goes on. Really need to do at least one 100km ride this weekend. This is Cape Town so anything can happen
'Dale Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Anyone with meteorological wisdom, how does the South Easter bring rain these days.
Wannabe Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Anyone with meteorological wisdom, how does the South Easter bring rain these days. Now that you mention it. I see fairly strong (25-35km/h SE) is predicted on Weather SA for both Sat and Sun, but also 30% rain for sat and 15% for Sunday.Boggles my tiny mind, so weather gurus, what say you?
alsoran Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Anyone with meteorological wisdom, how does the South Easter bring rain these days. Isn't it called the Black South Easter. Happens only a few times a year but is fairly intense when it does. That's what I always thought anyway.
Wannabe Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Isn't it called the Black South Easter. Happens only a few times a year but is fairly intense when it does. That's what I always thought anyway.Lemme Google that.
