Would love to but got no wheels..... no seriously - I've literally got no wheels. Back rim (32H) stress cracked at 8 to 10 spokes on drive side. Spare rim has buggered hub (36H).

 

Waiting for stuff bought on the hub today to do repairs.....doubt it's gonna be ready for the weekend but one can always hope. Anyone know how long and at what price CWC is?

Geez, get that iron horse sorted out quick quick, SirK.

I left you at the last training ride with good wheels.

What happened since?

 

One thing's for sure - that Bianchi is chewing tarmac beeeg time these days.

As far as I know it's: Wannabe, Airbender, MariusL, Bikemonster, his buddy JP and myself (from this thread)

I'm out for the 'Tonner... choosing to work in Hermanus that weekend. B)

Great race - enjoy it, Fellow Riders!

That 8 shaped route makes for interesting tactics, especially wind orientation.

['Dale]

Damn, any rides planned for sunday the 10th?

Ride with your neighbours, udxcob, planned for Sat 09.

Four Passes. Check out your e mails.

 

I get back from Obama Land on Wednesday, 06.

Hope to be in the bunch for that one.

 

Will prob give the Engen Dynamic a miss on Sunday 10 as my racing legs will be out with jet lag. B)

As long as you can stay all the way with us and don't do walkabouts all the time ???

 

Team ride together, a nice concept.

 

Agreed!

That means no stopping to take photos on top of Sir Lowrys, especially if you are the last one over the top.

(will be overseen if you are the first over the top!)

We also need to give him a 5min warning before we decide to leave the coffee shop so he can start packing away all the tools, powders, batteries, .... etc

[MariusL]

Due to my DC ride on Sunday of 150k's... I'm planning a little easy 70 -80km early Saturday morning - probably PolkaDraai, Stellies, Wellington Rd, home.

 

Anyone keen for a little spin?

[Tankman]

You were looking strong on the MTB last night, why dont you come do a little spin at the Lourensford Classic, not that little but 57km can only do you good!

I took the the rims, hubs and spokes in to have the wheels build for him. Should have them by tomorrow.

Yeah, with Dura Ace hubs My training wheels will have better hubs than my Racing Wheels
