  4. big.mamma, it's a good idea. It sounds like it could take place in the Vaalwater area. If it is going to happen, please start advertising it as soon as possible
  5. And it's called what race?
  6. Sorry TNT1, i obviously do not spend as much time as you on the hub to watch all toppics all the time
  7. 12/01/2009 08:22 - (SA) <?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> Hilda Fourie, Beeld <?: prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Pretoria - A cyclist has described how he heard screeching brakes and then felt a knock, as a police car drove into him. Frans Potgieter, 50, of Wonderboom in the north of Pretoria, was participating in a cycle race organised by the Vissershoek Primary School on Saturday morning. He and a group of six cyclists were on Brits Avenue in the north of Pretoria, when the accident happened. Three cyclists were riding in front of Potgieter and two were behind him. Potgieter said he was riding a little more into the road than the others. "I heard the screeching brakes and then felt the knock," he said. "A policeman from Hartbeespoort had driven into me from behind and pushed me along. "I thought he was going to drive right over me. "As he knocked me forward, I bumped into the rider in front of me, who in turn knocked into the one in front of her. My back wheel broke. My bike collapsed and I landed on the road on my backside. "The police vehicle came to a standstill about a metre from my head." Hospitalised Potgieter and the two women riders in front of him were taken to hospital. He had injured his back and bottom. One of the women had broken her right foot and little toe, had to get stitches in her right arm and had injured her ribs. The other woman had severe grazes. Al three were discharged later on Saturday. Potgieter said the damage to the bicycles amounted to hundreds of rand. "It shows you people don't watch the road when they drive," Potgieter said. "You don't even drive that close to a car. Why would you drive that close to a bicycle?" Complaint Jakkie Louw, organiser of the cycle race, said they were going to lodge a complaint with the Independent Complaints Directorate. Louw said the policeman had told him he hadn't noticed the cyclists on the road. "Before the accident, he passed about 50 cyclists, so he knew there were cyclists on the road," Louw said. "How can you just drive into a bunch of cyclists? How is it that you don't see others on the road?" Police spokesperson Inspector Dikatso Thebe confirmed the accident. - Beeld
  8. Rooiwal is the safest
  9. All three of them were released from hospital with not too serious injuries. I cannot believe that the policeman didn't see the cyclists. He must have passed at least 30 cyclists before he rode into the group of cyclists
  10. Mine is fine (2007 model)

    Shimano het ook 'n groupset wat soos Campy werk, hulle noem dit Sora
  17. Pasop net as jy Hekpoort afgaan, daar is spoed brrrrreekers
  18. You can also try "Die Oog" holiday resort, near Naboomspruit. They have nice Mtb routes. Google "Die oog"
  19. Ken ongelukkig nie daai area te goed nie. Die pad na Tarlton se kant toe is ook maar besig. Ek dink as jy met die N14 terug Pta se kant toe ry (jy kan op hom ry tot by die volgende afrit), is daar 'n stillerige teerpad waarop jy kan ry.
  20. Big H, baie geluk en lekker ry. Het julle toe darem 'n paar kilo's ingekry die naweek?
  21. The shoes doesn't give me cramps, but some of the prices does
  22. Lekker, lekker sean, wanneer kom jy hom/haar vir my wys, dat ons om die blok kan ry?
  23. Baie geluk Big H. Jy sal nooit spyt wees dat jy daai Raleigh gekoop het nie. Hulle is verbasend styf en gee jou nie daai wobbely gevoel wat ander tandems jou gee wanner jy staan en trap nie. Ek en Saddlesore het net so een gekoop by Solomons. Ons het ons s'n se agterste kasette met 'n XT 11/32 laat vervang en ook 'n XT derailer in die plek van die 105 en ook Q rings opgesit (hulle is nie 4 x 4 nie, werk net op die stoker se crank). Het jy joune ook by Solomons gekoop? Geniet hom, dis 'n tandem wat die "punishment" kan vat

    Oh! Thanks, I thought it had the same meaning as the Afrikaans word "poespas", which means, deurmekaar spul
