Edition 507

He probably does not have much of a head for safety issues

Psycho - If you ever need motiviation speak to this guy Psycho volunteered to manage the TCS 40+ Vets this weekend and for the first time we rode as a proper team with radios and Psycho giving us feedback and shouting encouragement in our ears. What a difference! Although we were a small team we played our part to the best of our ability and we are proud of our achievements. Thanks to Psycho and my other team mates and well done to Boss Logistics on their win in the 40-49 VB category' date=' you guys are just too strong a team for the rest of us at the moment.

Shucks man, I hope Jo is okay, it is never good to hear of someone getting hit by a car Anyway I'll say howzit at the start on Saturday

Where do you live?

Free BUMP tiger cycles. <?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> I empathize with you, especially when DCM think they can just ignore you 'cos they think you are a small enterprise and you don't count. How arrogant. Their arrogance continues with this Jason dude saying you must call him Monday. No Jason, you call tiger today and get it sorted out. Public opinion counts, not just for business hours buddy, weekends too. The longer this takes to sort out the longer this post must remain on the hub actively, so that every bike shop and mechanic in the whole of SA can be aware of DCM Chrome and how they do 'business'. This way when they are looking for a mechanic for a race, they will only find closed doors and then the marketing manager himself will have to work on the bikes. Go Tiger GO

Not nice DCM Chrome. The hub awaits your side of the story.

Spraying the driver with your water bottle is pathetic and just plain stupid. Rather use pepper spray, much more effective, especially after he attempted his braking stunt.

This topic has been discussed ad nausem on the hub. Each to his own in the end really.

Only people with cheap bikes say it makes no difference 'cos they know no better. Have you ever heard of people downgrading performance equipment? Here is a challenge, why don't the sceptics ride a R50,000 bike for the first half of a race and then swap to their R10,000 bike for the second half and lets see if their opinion is the same afterwards.

Looking good I must say. Now that you have fixed the cracked part of the frame are going going to fix that bent top tube of yours

I'm in IT so maybe I have soft sensitive hands from typing and gently moving my mouse around while playing Solitaire from 8-5. Perhaps the others are manual laborers and hence the calluses from swinging that pick all day protects their hands from their lumpy SRAM hoods<?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

SRAM chains have a bad habit of snapping Ask team Neotel all about it Althought they have a 'new' improved stonger version out I would still stick to Shimano!

Funny that you mention it now, but I have felt slight discomfort before and then during the Vasbyt my SRAM Reds were hurting my hands just as you described ZeroPlay. I put it down to distance, rough potholed roads and very hard tubbies, but I may have to take a closer look 'cos if it is the case Panorama is going to be murder on my hands By the way, I have also shortened my stem and find it much more comfortable so there is definitely a change in position between DA and SRAM Red.

Oi magoo, does Guinness come in handy "throw away" sachets too?

Good on you JB!!

Spinergy hands down!

Jeez, for that price they could have thrown in a couple of water bottle cages

Still trying to spot the chicks in the picture. Is this like one of those spot the ball competitions or are you having us on?

Just my luck, you work hard and you miss the good posts! So zeepee, can't you repost it but with the words 'allegedly' or 'rumour' somewhere in it, so that you could maybe avoid libel or whatever the problem was that got it deleted?

You making me jealous PE is one of my favourite spots

Thanks KK. And as far as I am aware, you can also carry bombs on busses, tubes and trains and to American Embassies.

Ag shame man, you need to find a new sponsor/bike shop, as your current ones seem real tight with their money And if you upgrade to 10 or even 11 speed you will be able to get so much more mileage out of those clusters as the load and wear will be spread over a sprocket or two more. JB, would you be able to calculate how much further Roders could ride with two extra sprockets before the cassettes needed replacing?

Last time I checked, I think only Arabs were allowed to carry bombs on planes.

I like Chinese, it is one of my favourite take-aways
