wannabepro

sh*t happens, deal with it.

jip we can help,give Dana Coetzee(Mongoose rider) a call, secunda is his home town and knows it pretty well. the weekend of the 1st of November there is a mtb race in secunda, so you can start with that. i will PM you Dana's Number.

i have the route map and camp map!

i understand your point on the expo, but i worked there the whole week and let me tell when 3 o clock came we were all so happy!! we packed up until 17h00 (and we were one off the stalls with few things to pack) and still had to go back to PTA get everything ready for my race(coz we had to leave at 3:30 am to be in time for my start) I think the guys need to understand that there is a reason why the expo closed 3:30. Sorry if you missed out on some things but to be honest there wasnt really anything that you havent seen before.

i always thought he was going to be the first South African to win a Mountain stage in the tour de france, I was really dissapointed when he couldnt go the tour this year and now..... This is extremely sad. For most of us he was a brilliant cyclist but for his family and friends he was a brother, a son, a boyfriend and a best friend. I am really sorry about your loss!!! wannabepro2007-08-01 02:34:11

? ? 101%' date=' I think you just misunderstood her post, she's probably afrikaans and meant to say "Dis nogal hard om dit?te glo van Marco..." which should have been "It's kinda hard to believe something like this about a person like Marco...", cause she is on his side afterall. Merely some bad English.[/quote'] eks gedurig in die moeilikheid, is it wrong to say Hard to believe.... dalk moet ek myself maar in afrikaans herhaal Dis vir my moeilik om so iets van Marko te glo ek ken hom nie so nie, sal graag sy kant van die storie wil hoor. who's guna attack me now ???

jeeesh, sorry julle!!! Im on Marco's side!!! Really didnt mean to step on any toes, i Apologize!!!!

oops, my bad!!

its kinda hard to believe form Marco... Id like to hear the other side first

Is it those Graham baxter tours? Jealous ag at least i was there at this years TDF!!!

ek het nou weer gevind dat die mtb my stadig gemaak het, wel sterker maar ek kan nie meer op die pad die jo-jo pace doen nie. nog iemand wat dit ondervind?

ja man okay, moet nou nie so tegnies raak nie , my punt is net dat hoeveel uithouvermo? jy het en hoeveel pyn jy kan vat maak 'n groot verskil. Talking out of my own experience,switching from road to mtb,ive learned to "byt vas" so so so SOOOO MUCH MORE! It is a mind game.....Lance giving Ullrich that "look" before attacking on that climb, has obviously done some damage to ullrich, or am i wrong?

I think its a bit of a mindset as well. If you are a good cyclist and havent been training, you still know how to take the pain psychologically. Fitness has obviously got alot to do with it but cycling is about mental toughness!!!

On this one ill support Marissa! As someone just said, how many souties will answer in afrikaans???? She couldve answered in soutie taal but its difficult to express yourself correctly in your 2nd language and she may have sounded a bit stupid then, and we wouldnt want our lady cyclist of the year embarrising herself....again? EN nou moet ek ook in soutie taal myself probeer uitdruk en ek klink seker ook nou stupid...... sien julle nou!!!!

As dit choclate is, sou ek bietjie geworry het.... hoop dis strawberry!

Ag wees bietjie nice met die hubbers wat ook daar was en nie in die "tcs gang" is nie. voel 'n bietjie afgeskeep

Was okeyish. Very inspiring, makes you wana get on your bike ride the living hell out of everyone and forget that pain ever existed. The scenery was quite something, and being in the fortunate position to have been at this years tour, i really could appreciate the atmosphere and scenery. was cool tho.

ek is seker dat daar wel 'n tergers in pretoria is met regte boeremeisies om op julle skote te dans (hoe ry die boere sit-sit so!).? pryse blykbaar heel billik' date='? so epoh se gepompery sal hom nie 'n plaas se geld kos nie. [/quote'] Eish jy vat ons pretoria boeremeisies darem nou bietjie laag hier, ons is eintlik heel beskaafd hoor!!

ek chip nou in by julle privaat sake, maar is dit daai pvm ding van die tour de france want ons gaan ook maar ons het ons uitnodiging somewhere verloor en het so semi die datum vergeet. As dit dieselfde storie is s? net vir my want ek het gedink dis die 23ste maar was nie seker nie.
