Lekker Robyn!!

I ride Ikons with Stans, on 3 different bikes. Many thousands of Kilos, no problem. I think , looking at the tread wear and how long you have had them, that maybe you have not ridden them much, perhaps this happened from standing for a long time? This is only an assumption, please correct me if wrong.

They are almost 150 grams heavier than their competition and only the 60 tpi reasoning for better sidewall explanation, which does not seem to work anyway. So, not a great prospect.

That DMR tensioner is actually pretty good. Perhaps you should try it 1st.

Yes

On the same day as Napier patatfees mtb. The town nextdoor. Nee manne, julle moet met mekaar praat. There are not that many events at this time in this area, bad planning/communication? Now I have to miss one and I wanted to do both.

Fantastic! I cycle/ commute in and around this area regularly. It is not as unsafe as people think, JUST BE VISIBLE. I find JHB motorists mostly very considerate as long as you are seen. Electric bikes for the people not wanting to sweat before work, and own power home, simple.

Wat nou?

Kandui, you would be most welcome I will also take you on some very lekker rides where we will not trespass!

Are the 2014 Roval sl not 28 spoke? Very light ( I would guess under 350gr), hookless/stronger rim and a lekker 23mm internal witdth. I do not know their cost, but I do know they are sold here as a separate rim.

Ist of all encouraging someone to shoot a trespasser is saying its ok to commit a very serious crime in reaction to a rather minor crime. In the more sophisticated societies, there is a right to roam. Do you really believe the land/ earth belongs to you? Its been around for several billion yrs and you and I only a very short time ( maybe a hundred yrs). I think the land owners need to relax a bit, I DO NOT encourage trespassing, but unless there is an actual threat to you or damage to your property, why the big fuss? I would personally rather pay for access but the places who have allowed mtb access have actually benefitted in their security and problem reporting ( like forest fires etc.)

YES, Suzie could easily win, would just need to make a break on the climbs. I vote Suzie for President!!

Ek trek na julle geweste toe einde van die maand en sien nou lekker uit hierna.

Robyn really deserved this one, absent marshal is just unacceptable at a major UCI race.

I dislike the noise level at big events. The rest has been stated by everybody above.
