  1. Hi guys. Here is an interesting question/not. Perhaps its been touched on. There seems to be besides the mobile phones that are getting jacked, a penchant for other tech being taken by these mofos as in watches etc,they wouldn't be hanging onto this merchandise and wouldnt have a personal need for said merch,and as they seem to be repeating the modus ,surely someone is buying the stuff,now who would that be. Do you guys get my drift? Surely some dealer in 2nd hand high class tech is buying and selling?
  2. A 34 nw oval is equal to a 36 round. Just remember when it come to racing and the profiles we race Don't go much bigger than a 34 oval
  3. There is the daily blog I watch on you tube called active self protection. The biggest lesson that John Coriea gives is situational awareness. If you constantly are aware it makes a difference. And to avoid is paramount ,but if you are forced to fight then you have to give 110% or the outcome is negative. I tell you guys this, We still live in the best Country in the world,and global there are these issues we just need to think a thing through.
  4. I also absolutely love the spruit. Up to about a year ago if one greeted the local residents /vagrants they greeted back. There was a balance and respect. There seems to be a new crowd now and it's becoming a problem. Perhaps a meeting with parkhurst cpf /saps on how to address this could be a option
  5. Apparently closer to the emmarentia dam So may be the same guys doing Alberts farm. One guy had a gun but it fell apart when the guy breached a round. But they had knives and also peppers prayed the two cyclists.
  6. To add to the spruit. Two friends new being Wayne(Kiwi) from Rapide got held up at gun and knife point this morning closer to Emmarentia Dam this morning. So it seems like spruit is going through the less popular phase that it did a few years ago. Unless the authorities can blitz the place again. Just so sad.
  7. Hi Hubbers and thank you in advance. Do any of you guys know where I can get a new pair of shimano cycling shoes thermally fitted. Or have any of you done it yourselves. Once again thank you.
  8. I'm interested in a rear wheel as well 29 QR
  9. So it's tit for tat. I get the impression some of you guys only cycle as a means to rage. It's so reflective of our society. I get it that we have lost way too many Friends and family out there. My best friend Nino Oppel was killed last year February. It's a case of using your discretion and don't way in a pro or a con unless you were there yourself. What would your comment be if wifey came home abused. I know ,you would want to hunt the perp Down and kick him with your cycling legs. Go boxing boys,you at least get to receive the same kind of beat down you condone. Happy riding or in you guys cases who ride around looking for a brawl, not so happy riding. Mwa
  10. Hi guys and thank you in advance. Can you advise me on workouts to advance my ftp on the indoor trainer. I have an idea basic idea where my ftp is just need workout info on advancing it.
  11. Hi guys and thank you in advance. I'm looking for and old 29" mtb rear wheel in qr and if possible a casette on it can be 8 or even 9 speed. Want to try something. Does also not have to have tyre on. Regards
  12. Bought a forza bell. Works great. I at least get to spend the rest of the money on other cycling essentials. It's called wisdom.
  13. Hi guys/girls I found a lost tools bottle on the tar road section of the emperors mtb race. You would need to identify the contents.
  14. What gets my **** up. Is that as with the loss of my friend Nino Oppel last year the driver ran off to sober up. Then it becomes a mistake/manslaughter case ,it appears that the youngster that killed Nino is going to get away with it,as will this driver. It is so so sad and frustrating. Yet if the remaining cyclists had to **** the driver up they would be spending the easter weekend in jail. That that family not only spends this easter bit eternity fatherless and husbandless. It's heartbreaking dying doing something you love. Aaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrgggggghhhhh (Frustration )
  15. Hi hubbers. I wonder if you can assist. After a very close encounter the other night with a bus,who's driver was on the mobile phone?and with me having two lots of lights going,I am looking for one of those PPA stay wider of the rider over vests,as ironically today I encountered a cyclist wearing one and my first reaction was to give a wider space. Please a heads up to obtaining one will be much appreciated. Thank you in advance.
  16. I hear you. Guys another thing experienced riders have learnt is to go prepared. You go on a 120k ride with 2 bottles, do the same even on a 70. I'm certain if you asked around 95%of people enjoyed the ride and it's a wonderful event/course to get novices into the sport
  17. Nakoota maybe if you faced forward you would see it differently
  18. I myself have wrestled with getting greater top end by having a 10/46 and 32 or 34 up front Only to realise that perhaps if that's what I want to do is perhaps but a road bike. Guys if you consider what it comes down to ,think about what gears you need to ride mtb/trails /off road. Guys pay astronomical prices on gear ,only to neglect their conditioning. Nothing nicer than kicking a guy who is on a 80k bikes but with a 25k bike or even an SS
  19. Hi Where is this circuit. And do many guys ride there?
  20. Guys/gals. Really modders has become awesome once more. I personally think they should alternate directions every 2 weeks. It's a fast route
  21. No E bikes Those entries are on Ebike hub
  22. Thank you in advance. Guys/ladies who have ridden transbaviaans tell me is it possible let to ride trans on a hardtail with a carbon rigid fork.?
  23. Rode modders today. It's like the old modders and even better. Will be riding there regularly. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Let's support this trail once more
  24. Strengthen your core is the only real way to relieve back problem and also spin your cranks more instead of slow more powerful gears
  25. Hi guys. And thank you in advance.my 29 er mtb frame has a tapered headset with a straight steerer fork. I'm in the process of purchasing a tapered fork but am looking for the fork bearing race adaptor that would accommodate tapered fork stem into bearings of straight steerer, if you guys know what I'm getting at
