Sarel Slowpoke Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 I would like to either start a new, or join an existing group of riders in the Helderberg area. I am doing quite a bit of miles in preparation for the Tour de Boland. Looking at between 3 and 5 hours per day, 6 days a week, starting around 06:00 in the morning. Anyone interested?
fandacious Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 (edited) Im too scared to ride with you - you hurt me @ the double century Edited February 8, 2011 by fandacious
Inusc Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 (edited) Try the wannebees or basinwww.basinmtb.com/ Edited February 8, 2011 by Inusc
Sarel Slowpoke Posted February 8, 2011 Author Posted February 8, 2011 (edited) Ok, so far, fandacious is in. We are kicking off on 15 Feb at 06:00. Edited February 8, 2011 by Sarel Slowpoke
Velouria Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 I think Sarel will put the Wannabees off cycling for life... I still have nightmares from the DC. It usually involves him sitting on the front barely breaking a sweat with the rest of us sitting near max, gritting our teeth and sweating blood! I've got some long rides planned for the weekend of the 19th - MTB 4hr tempo (sat) and road 4hr LSD (sun). And again the nest weekend.
Tankman Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Try the wannebees or basinwww.basinmtb.com/Â He wants to do 3 to 6 hours of training, which I am sure he can do with the Wannabees. Only covering 30km in 3 hours might become an issue. Â If Fandacious is scared to join Sarel Slowpoke then you have no idea what the Wannabees will not bee.

Was when I was really unfit and slow
Velouria Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 So I can safely assume it was you my wife saw riding two or three weeks ago in 5339 kit on the coast road?
headhunter Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 Maybe, the alter ego cycling version of the Wannabees in the H'berg, is what is required i.e. skinny race snakes that weigh little more than a sparrow's fart, trying to out gun each other and have a pissing contest on every hill ? Probably, a lot better for you trying to hold onto these guys rather than sitting in with cyslists dressed in that awful red & yellow checks with a dumbass looking insect?

Lou Zealand Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 Looking at between 3 and 5 hours per day, 6 days a week, starting around 06:00 in the morning. Anyone interested? Nice - how do you manage that - are you a Member of Parliament?
Sarel Slowpoke Posted February 10, 2011 Author Posted February 10, 2011 Nice - how do you manage that - are you a Member of Parliament? As a kept man, I earn my keep between 19:00 and 05:00.
Lou Zealand Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 As a kept man, I earn my keep between 19:00 and 05:00.Fair enough - must say I'm just a little envious
fandacious Posted February 15, 2011 Posted February 15, 2011 OMWÂ Sarel tells me he isn't feeling well so he wants to take it easy - and then proceeds to rip my legs off for 2hrs on a "slow short ride"
Cassie Posted February 15, 2011 Posted February 15, 2011 Â Fand, you know mos!! Don't take a knife to a gunfight...
