I've only heard really good things about Intense. Even Lea recommends them.

the additive and pill munching industry is just there to draw your money away from more useful pastimes, like obtaining bling for your bike, working off that summer fitness with beer and paying people to come naked. You could also sponsor me to throw some neighborhood cats in the pool. Aside from the above "facts" think about the it. Folks make a product that they want to sell and make a profit from. Therefore, it is a fantastic idea to make people believe that they REALLY REALLY need it. Of course, most of the stuff might be beneficial if you only eat vleis and rys. But if you have a good balanced intake of food, you'll generally be okay. Don't be like those silly people who take anti-depressants because they think they're depressed.

Eat a whole lot of good quality food. Skip McD's and all the other crap. You'll be brimming with Health. Just like me. It might also make you slower, just like me....

Slowly trundling up Buitengracht on a fine saturday morning, got taken out by Mr Wojakezxc (insert Polish surname of choice here). Bent frame, wheel and ankle. Nearly knocked over countless times going down Sea Point beach road. And had a trailer side swipe my fork in Camps Basy one morning early, when no cars were about. Too many near misses all over the place, some my fault, mostly their fault.

Ringle/Hope/DT Swiss/Chris king hubs are all really good. Hope can be gotten for very little from chain reaction. Then choose decent rims and spokes and you can get a bargain wheelset for next to thing. Light, strong, reliable. get a hold of TitusTi. He knows a thing or two about building wheels.

Yeah, I gotta admit that I've only been knocked by passing traffice twice, and both was not at peak hour. Strange that. Maybe people are still asleep whilst driving early in the hours. As for the taxi, well, what can you do. Get a whole gang of buddies next time and then beat the belligerence out of the driver. I would say go to the cops and report it, but we all know that's not going to go anywhere

vitriol - abusive or venomous language used to express blame or censure or bitter deep-seated ill will

Oh I see. I don't have much cause to look behind me for the second place guy. Must be unique to being first. There seems to be alot of vitriol and poison flowing around from the rain. Are you guys made of sugar and likely to melt in the rain?

MWNN: How exactly does a visor prevent the spray from the BACK wheel from going into your eyes? I'm not very logically or mechanically minded so perhaps you can elaborate on the physics of this phenomenon

As I understand it, it is to keep your eyes in shade. This is especially useful in dappled forest light, where you have sunlight and shade alternating as you ride along. Your eyes can't adjust fast enough to the dappled light, so keeping them in shade sorts that out. Not noticed that it does anything in the rain. On the other hand, I could be completely wrong

bugger the threats. you cause trouble you get the five commandments cause and effect. action reaction....

I think I turned out okay. Besides, I'm always right. smack the little s*$^

I reckon kids should get a smack every single day. Like when they wake up. You know they deserve it.

I just discovered a new amazing nutritional supplement: A nutella and banana wrap.. lekker. not sure how well it works on the go, but damn it tastes fine

maybe the organiser should carry a heavy wooden ruler around and rap non helmeted fools over the head repeatedly. and maybe a kick in the balls too. otherwise tell them to piss off

It was mentioned to concerned parties. We'll have to see what happens now.

So went to check out some new bikes yesterday. Very nice and all that, but then rep was, shall we say, somewhat lacking in product knowledge. Why is he the rep? One comment from a bystander: He's not qualified to sell a pram! Really. How on earth did he get the job? I can't stand all the bulls$%@ sales people who have no clue what they're talking about.

all fine and well to report them, but I reckon the best is to just get the hell out of the way. I hear a bus coming I look for a gap on the left pronto!

time spent on the bike: 0h 0mins. time spent filling the gut: 6hrs time spent emptying gut: 1hr overall gain: sore back

How about doing the PbP as a pub crawl? could be amusing

Gotta admit I've always enjoyed my lycra. So snug and form fitting. Makes me feel sexy all over.... and if you have a boep the bibs work extra nice. Your boep can hang in the bib as well. Although, I recently discovered baggies, and I gotta say, they are really cool to ride with. rode in the german rain with the baggies and it was no hassle.

well F@#$ me gently with a chainsaw. that's a serious bummer. get well buddy. guess you'll have weather bone now.

don't know if I would say riding into a head wind and climbing are the same. they're both hard, but otherwise different. just ride into the damn wind all the time. It will be good for you and you'll get "hard".

any training is miles better than nothing. just remember you body adjusts to the training you do (known as getting fit) so introduce a change once in a while to keep your muscles on their toes as it were. i.e. ride for two hours every day for a year, and you'll do an incredible two hour ride. try and ride 3 hours and your body reckons: wtf!!!!!????
