GTRacing Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 Give me a break, this was my first 10k since the army, 20 years ago. I do mtb hill intervals on Norfolk 7 to 10 reps 7min up 3min down. It's also been a while.
Weight Weenie Posted January 6, 2011 Author Posted January 6, 2011 I just emailed them... Phoned the lbs yesterday to ask about the pack. Dropped by there this morning unanounced and they had gotten a demo model to check out, big up to Bester Cycles and Camelbak SA ! Tried it on, the is perfect ! Was looking for Specialized BG fit logo's Pity the double bottle one is not in sa, will get from crc, but might get a one bottle one as well, or first. Wish it also came with the insulated bottle Flex what was hte cwc price and do they have stock ? colours ?
flex Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 Flex what was hte cwc price and do they have stock ? colours ? CWC price was around R300 (can't remember exactly), and only one colour available, which was the Formula 1 red.
Weight Weenie Posted January 8, 2011 Author Posted January 8, 2011 CWC price was around R300 (can't remember exactly), and only one colour available, which was the Formula 1 red. Thanks, think I'll get one before Xterra
stewie911 Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 Thanks, think I'll get one before XterraLast year the run took me like 25min for the lite, so if you hydrate on the bike you should be fine for the run. But then again you're used to drinking constantly.

Weight Weenie Posted January 19, 2011 Author Posted January 19, 2011 Glad to report that I was able to get one of those Camelbak Delayney packs from the LBS for R360, did an 11km run in groenkloof in the rain with it and initial impressions are great ! Very comfy, no bobbing and the bottle stays put, weight is very evenly spread. Also impressed with the First Ascent Mageneeto jackets, worked very well in the rain, kept me dry but didnt overheat.
Wyatt Earp Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 Anyone know if these guys are ligit: http://www.shoessouthafrica.net/vibram-shoes-shoessouthafrica_537Careful , read here. http://www.vibramfivefingers.co.za/products/beware-of-counterfeits.html
Weight Weenie Posted February 3, 2011 Author Posted February 3, 2011 So did any of you hubber do the Kinetic run last night ? Really flat and fast, can't call it a trail run IMO (ok maybe I'm spoilt with Groenkloofs trails...)

Really flat and fast, can't call it a trail run IMO (ok maybe I'm spoilt with Groenkloofs trails...)I did, my second one and was awesome. It's more like a cross country run but good fun nonetheless. The December one was much hillier, was at Jackal Creek golf estate. The Hansa draft afterwards worked a treat :-)
Weight Weenie Posted February 8, 2011 Author Posted February 8, 2011 Flex I See you fared quite well, should meet upo next time. I cracked a top 20 atleast results here _> http://www.racetime.co.za/_results/2011/RaceTime-KineticTrailRun2011-02.pdf
