On the roadie I run a 39/54 with 11/28 cassette. It was never my choice though as my mate left his bike at my house and I have slowly taken ownership of it. The cassette has a good spread but I should

Nice ride. Good to see scenery from other parts of the world, let's see some shots from those tall hills! :)

Surely it's a personal preference? I find myself wishing for a large range cassette on the roadie with the hills and mountains around here. That said a 40t is seriously big seeing as mountain bikes only

Nice trail, looks quite tropical too. Video makes it sound like there's an e-bike hanging around nearby? Maybe just my ears?

Snow rad dude. Can't imagine getting out on the bike in that sort of weather....

Nice ride, I've never been a fan of indoor trainers, but this Zwift stuff seems to be quite fun, maybe I'll give it a try someday - the trainers are pretty expensive. 205W average is pretty good too.

A 458 at a Kia dealership? Either the dealership does extremely well or someone made a mistake when trading in :) Black in the heat is a difficult colour, it also shows up scratches really easy, I saw

Good luck man. I love racing, even though I feel like I'm dying every time I do one. How long is your trail race and what's the elevation looking like? 170km on an MTB is tough, even if it's on paved roads.

A Steemit strava group would be rad, at least then I could track newcomers and check out who to follow as well.

Yes, what started as a hobby on weekends escalated to an obsession where I have to get a fix 5 times a week.

Awesome bike man and respect to you for riding a single speed. I don't have the leg strength to even attempt it.

Thank you sir. You will love it out here, hope it helps motivate you to train for those long days in the saddle ahead.

Yep. It's happening soon as well, mid March. There's a lot of pro riders out here at the moment training.

Haha, yep I use the term a lot. Feeling better today and ready to tackle the week ahead. It's all downhill after Monday anyway. :)

Wohoo, I won! Thanks. Absolutely agree with the heart rate monitor and regulating your effort. It's essential if you take your fitness relatively serious. There are a lot of tools out there for the more

Somerset West to CPT is good training. Pick a day without wind or the headwind home will ruin you.

Great photos. It never gets cold or muddy enough here for cycclocross but every time I watch it on TV it looks crazy. Guys falling over on bikes that don't look made for mud. Looks like the spend more

Yeah, it's an old steel bike. Battaglin specialise in steel frames.

Cool bike. Looks like an awesome area to ride too.

Reuben, Howzit. Good to see another Cape Townian cyclist here on Steemit. We have a bit of a community starting to gather 'steem' off you will. Check out what @holm posted the other day if you want to
