    There is just no substitute for experience .
  2. And beer was over priced !!! .
  3. I cycle to Red Barn and Klapperkop often from my house in WierdaPark . Lotsa space on the dirt next to road and only few road crossings .
  4. Drive to Red Barn ? Seriaas ?
  5. If you stick to the gravel next to the road you can go all the way to Harties . Saartjie nek it gets a bit tight in places if you wanna stay of the tar . Depends how big a loop you wanna do in the morning . Go past the Spur towards Mall , turn left and follow dirt track all the way up to Theuns v Niekerk . Jump at robot , up tp next intersection , again you can cross at traffic light . At next intersection (old JHB ) road turn left before tar road and follow all the way up to Ruimte crossing roads at Traffic lights . Up ruimte on left hand side where you will find the nice short climb , cross over to right at traffic light and cross the road to pick up nice single track past security fence . Something like that but you have to time your crossings .

    There are a lot of other things going on besides the Rossi and gang doings . Brad Binder will be number one rider for KTM this year and his times in practice this year put him in front of the pack . His brother will still stay with the same team as last year .
  18. Ok I am not going to read all this but did the Hub find him guilty ?
  19. That is the first thing you apparently do if you get a new one .
  20. And so again I need to ask what happened to CSA , imagine that their attempted take-over a few years ago did happen ?? Well done PPA , going the extra mile for your members and cyclists .
  21. This little poem should be made a sticky topic !!!!!! Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as knowing when to come in out of the rain, why the early bird gets the worm, why life isn't always fair, and how, on occasion, maybe it was my fault. Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you earn) and reliable parenting strategies (adults, not children are in charge) . His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a six-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition. Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job they themselves failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer aspirin, sun lotion or a sticky plaster to a student; but could not inform the parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion. Common Sense lost the will to live as the Ten Commandments became contraband; churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims. Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar can sue you for assault. Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement. Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust; his wife, Discretion; his daughter, Responsibility; and his son, Reason. He is survived by three stepbrothers; I Know my Rights, Someone Else is to Blame, and I'm a Victim. Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing. Author unknown
  22. Yip , unboxed two new 650b Merida a while back and it took me more than a hour to take of all the reflector ligths . And as far as I know I know it is Law in THIS country as well .
