  1. A valve of a old tube also works .
  2. Sorry for you but once I get a confirmation of payment you still gonna wait until I am satisfied the money is in the bank !!
  3. No shoulder but that is where they commute to work everyday , some runt in a car on the cell or picking his/her/it's nose !
  4. Ok so ek weet julle vrystaters het nie veel anders om te doen as om vir pakkies te wag nie maar dink jy nie dis biekie vroeg om te roer nie ?
  5. Gerald sorry to hear that but I could have told you a long time ago that CSA is a bloody circus
  6. Did they make the race shorter ?
  7. Every year they move in next to us ! We only see them on day one and then never again . Think they get in very late at night .
  8. Race riders ?? Sorry I must have confused you okes with another group . The aim normally is to finish everyday fast enough to still have a shower before lunch .
  9. if you are well trained you will not get hangovers !!!
  10. Ok then the pub it will be , but the first one to mention Strava , closely followed by the sucker that worries about the next day , is outta there . Sorry but there got to be some rules !
  11. And that is what they say every year , and when I get to the pub I normally drink with one of the local farmers till they chase us out !!!!
  12. It is not a simple as that . A few times at 6am I have ran into one of these animals coming around the corner . It is not easy to make a fast u-turn on th single track and normally I just stop and wait for something to happen . Getting that close the the camelhorse happens often , you don't need to be "looking" for it .
  13. Don't you do this every year ???
  14. You do XCO on a MTB . And very few things are easy on a MTB .
  15. Good thing it is not a 29" , it would have been destroyed . Dillon I also go that way from WierdaPark every sunday but go up old JHB road to monument and then down .
  16. very common on the RP23 . send it in they sort it out quickly .
  17. Very interesting reading . After running toobless on various non-tubeless rims and tyres without to much problems , I thought maybe its because on the smaller 26" it would work better . But been running tubeless Kenda's on cheap 29" non-tubeless rims for over a year now and although I had a few puntcures already I am yet to remove a tyre from the rims . Am I riding to slow or should I get off Klapperkop and hit the tar to get proper punctures ? All my tubeless conversion , does not matter tyre/rim combination has been normal insulation tape and a old tube valve . The Stans or Joe rim strips are rubbish .
  18. Model : Rollei Bullet Youngstar HD Action Camera
  19. Saw clips from the action camera Makro sells . Very impressive and I think they got for under 2k .
  20. You get them , there are many diffirent names but most people call them flats .
  21. You last statement is true . Never looked at the colour , mine goes black for some reason .
  22. If you plan on getting a new GS after every dirty ride get XTR . The more expensive the GS gets the lighter and less durable they are . So Deore will last you a very ,very long time while XTR will not . Simple .
  23. To much swinging of bikes on the suspension type racks for me .
  24. We ate a lot of dust from vehicles but they all pulle dover when we came flying down the hill and I forgave them for the dust they kicked up . But the lack of food at some water points for the back markers was a bit of a dissapointment and should really be looked at . One think that I did find very disturbing was the people that manned the tables all told us what a sour and unfriendly bunch the first lot of riders where . The lovely old auntie that dished up the soup said they did not even thank her for the soup not asked the recipe !!! Not cool .
  25. Next year we will pack more goodies in our boxes and spend more time at the CP's . Thats where the race vibe is and where we meet people .
