Took my garmin to kyalami yesterday

[Thyolo]

procycles in benoni has a handful of them for R2800-ish.

 

Thanks HR - but what are you doing posting at 3:48 am - sleephubbing?

Sabre484: That was Jason.  He was riding with me till about 6 while I was doing my intervals, then he did another two laps on his own...

I had an Orange Club 100 long sleeve jersey on last night (my TCS kit was in the wash!!! )

Sounds like the TCS rider was Jason or IanJ' date=' they have an irritating habit making you look like you're standing still when they come flying past. [/quote']

 

Scotty that's very kind of you but I don't think you can put me and Jason in the same category .

Now how am I supposed to know that is you in the Microsoft colours....haven't seen a pic of you on any of the TCS threads.......

Anyone one riding tomorrow night ?

 

 

[Tumbleweed]

yippee! getting my garmin 305 tomorrow! thanks old mutual!

Slowjoe, your Garmin tells you that you have done 513/ 514m of climbing in 6 laps of Kyalami.

 

My Polar tells me that I have done 445m of climbing in 10 laps of climbing.

 

One of us needs to get our HRMs calibrated/ fixed - hopefully it is me (I like the idea of climbing 1000m in 12 laps!)

[AttieSlabbert]

Want to map some routes? Also go to www.mapmyride.com or www.mapmytri.com It is really cool!!

[Thug]

Gumpole, don't think that your altitude gain is that far out. I did 8 laps yesterday and totalled 365m of Ascent.

 

Extrapolated to 10 laps would give me 456 m.

 

But, it also depends on which way round the track you cycle. We cycled the "wrong" way round yesterday.

Thug thats some weird science! in one lap the ascents will = the descents (otherwise you would cross the start line 1m in the air).

If you go the opposite direction ascents become descents and vice versaa - so the same amount of climbing..... not sure if that makes sense?

[scotty]

Strange i know but riding clockwise, my best ave for 40k is 28.8 and never under 27 while riding anti clockwise my best is only 27.2.

seems lots of hubbers now go to kyalami. I haven't been there in a few weeks but plan to go this afternoon. (if, when I go outside, the wind doesn't blow me away)

 

anybody else going?

[Kobie]

Thanks, I've tried the mapmyride website and uploaded some tracks from my Garmin. I see there are a lot of SA users. Still need to figure out how to download routes. There is a lot of manual entering of data which I don't particularly like. Aslo it looks like you have to save the tracks one by one.
