Steve<br /><br />If there is enough interest can we create another topic in the forums where we can &amp;quot;store&amp;quot; these graphs? It can have subdivisions for Aussie and RSA with regions then subdivided in that. I think this whole feature can become a great drawcard for the forum. We just need to set a standard so the scales can be constant. Let the gurus reply!!!!<br /><br />Keep em spinning<br /><br />Big H

  • send me a Name and description<br />
  • be prepared to be a moderator for that forum<br />
<br /><br />The only thing i wont do is start regional forums as everyone will end up being isolated from everyone else. The way it is now no-one has any choice but to mix with everyone else regardless of where they're from <br /><br />cheers!

Steve<br /><br />I sent you an email previously regarding the route profiles. What does the job of administrator entail??? How much time do I have to spend doing this??? The only reason why I want the profiles to be sorted by region is that I am not really interested in the profile of a route in Perth or Sydney, neither are you interested in the profile of the Rooiwal or Klipdri froute. There would be just more order if it can be split.<br /><br />Keep those wheels spinning<br /><br />Big H

Some news re route profiles. I read from the Polar Aust. forum that there's a Dutch company that will make altitude profile graphs for you for free:<br /><br />http://www.senso-unico.nl/polarprofielframe.html<br />

I think Big_H has a great idea.<br /><br />Here is the profile of the Windhoek cycle classic.<br />It is Namibia's version of the Augus.<br /><br />Done by about 1000 cyclist (we are only 1,8 million!) ;D

This might become one of the major projects of the cycling world.<br /><br />So many climbs, so many options.<br /><br />I have been considering buying maps and trying to construct profiles of my preferred rides. Now it seems that I didn't spend enough when I bought my HRM.<br /><br />D'oh.<br />

Definitely my type of race.

Yep, I knew all about that climb towards the end.<br />The race is usually a couple of weeks before the 94.7 and can therefore be a nice &amp;quot;warmup&amp;quot; ride for all the South Africans out there.<br /><br />You can follow the scheduling of the next event here. <br /><br />www.wpp.iway.na<br /><br />Leon<br /><br />

Does anyone know how to paste a Polar S710 profile on this site?<br /><br />I have the 94.7, OFM Classic and a few others on my computer and I'm sure newbies would want to see profiles of these races before they do them (they can also see my poor heart suffering!!!).<br />
