  1. When living in London, Friday nights we used to drink between 8-10 pints of wife beater then cycle home along the cycle path, used to be steaming when I got home and normally was asleep by 8pm, then wake up and go for a ride in the morning. Miss those days. Generally I'm not such a big drinker, but it's the festive season and getting in plenty of practice for Xmas - My body is a temple
  2. Not sure, I just now, I keep tabs of rounds and drinks for some reason, always have. Felt a little hungover, nothing an early morning swim in sea didn't sort out, then sweated all the rest out during the ride. I reckon I had more double vodkas though, free VIP bar at the Fun Loving Criminals night
  3. This past Sat night, I drank 8 beers, 4 jagermeisters, 4 Tequilas, and 8 Double Vodka and cokes. Drank two litres of water before bed and went for a 75km road ride out to Hout Bay and back, felt right as rain. I also ate loads that night though, The Diaz Tavern sure makes a great steak. It's all down to conditioning, my body is a temple
  4. I've only just reached gold this year, so best I do it for next year. Does only reaching Gold now, mean I still only have to do Gold for another two years to get to Diamond?
  5. To just to confirm, will all my points disappear and I start from zero next year?
  6. What did that cost you? Not done the diabetes test, So just to confirm, will all my points disappear and I start from zero next year should I rather wait till next year if that's the case?
  7. I read about this today online. I'm currently running Shimano shifters and rear derailleur and crankset. The crank has not done much mileage, unfortunately everything on my bike is still fairly new. So kind of stuck between a rock and hard place at the moment. Any other suggestions, I'm gonna take it into Cycle Factory tomorrow and see if they can tell me what is happening, my fork is also due a service, doh, and funds are tight at the moment for bike parts as I just got myself a road bike and new wheels.

    Amazing store in Fourways, I visited the weekend of the 94.7 and it was heaving with people, loads of stock and the staff were knowledgeable and friendly. I popped over to the workshop and got a personalised tour from Johan Bornmen, the workshop area is immaculate, a looks like something you would find at a Mercedes dealer, each mechanic has there own station, and there were about 8 of them.
  10. Seems to have affected you spelling ability as well
  11. Absolutely brilliant, still one of the best dance albums ever recorded.
  12. I had two of the best mechanics in the country build my bike for me, I can't believe that they would have got the chain length wrong for some reason, the springs in the deraileur seem fine as well. This is hell of a confusing as its something that's only recently developed over the last three or so weeks. I've not wiped out or had a crash, but the chain seems to flap about more then it should. Is there a way of knowing or finding out the correct chain length for a specific bike?
  13. My gears are changing fine, the chain as mentioned was fitted by my bike mechanic. Seems strange that this is happening all of a sudden Nothing seems to look out the ordinary either.
  14. Hi All, For some reason my chain seems to be slapping a lot more now then it normally ever has, I'm not sure if it's the trails I'm riding or it might be something else. Not sure what to try, as I'm in the right gear and it still seems to be doing it. My chain should be the right length as it was installed by the bike shop when I had my bike built up, so I can't think that I might have one link to many. What solutions are there? I'm running a 3x9 setup and it is really starting to get on my goat. Will a better derailleur work or should I get a chain tensioner or something else?
  15. Best you take her for a nice meal, get some flowers and an expensive present. We had a few mechanicals out on the trail today at Hoogekraal, and low and behold Willie Engelbrecht sorted us out, what an awesome bloke.
  16. My calves are eina today, can barely walk up the stairs Supposed to be taking a mate for his first MTB today at Hoogekraal.
  17. What did that cost you through a registered pharmacy - I did it all at the Virgin active gym, which was R400
  18. Does a woodchuck really chuck wood?
  19. You can also log daily rides if they are more then 30mins. If you go to gym as well I think one takes preference over the other, not 100% sure on this though. I loaded all my rides from the past year and got a huge wack of points two days ago You do that through LivingVitality. PS - You need a Garmin for that though
