What time did BL start?

On Suturday on my way back up HP just before Doreen Rd, I saw something that didn't make sense. A guy dressed in normal clothes, no helmet and no cycling shoes past me from the opposite direction. The strange thing was that he was on a Trek Madone! Now if he was a regular cyclist using his machine to go to work or shopping, surely he would at least wear his helmet or shoes? Unfortunetly there was too much traffic to turn around to go after him but I often use that route and will look out for him.

Many, many thanks to Orbea, Cape Cycle Systems and Westdene Cycles for their excellent after sales service. A couple of weeks ago I noticed a crack in my 2003 Orca frame. It was replaced under the life time guarantee without any hassle. I only had to pay a small amount because I wanted an upgrade. Thanks guys!

This is my "racing" machine.

Thanks for all the feedback, guys. I will take your advise and contact Raleigh myself.

A while back somebody mentioned that there was a problem with the quality of the new Raleigh carbon frame. Any more news on this?

Although it took me a while to find the problem when the button on my 725 got stuck, it was very simple and easy to fix. It was sweat that dried up and the salt got stuck in between the casing and the button. I rinsed the hrm in water, cleaned around the button with toilet paper and never had that problem again. Maybe check for this before you take it in to Polar.

I will follow wherever you guys go, I'm easy. I normally do hillfox, Krugersdorp hill, KeyWest, Sterkfontien and back or out on the Krugersdorp/Pretoria highway, Cradle of man kind new road and back.

Slowpoke, let's do the 6:30.

I'm also keen on a 100k's but it sounds like you guys normally do this in a quick time?? I see how far I can keep up with you guys.

I've been looking for a group to ride with so count me in.
