Edition 507

I'm a bit dof (no snide comments please), but what are core muscles exactly?

I imagine running behind him could get quite messy, splash splash splash. Thats probably why there is nobody else near him in the shot, they can either run faster than him or they are puking in the bushes somewhere behind him!

That looks like 50cent's bike. The only things missing are the gold chains, mink coat, DKNY sunglasses and snakeskin SPD's.

Go for the ceramic stuff Desmond. I have ceramic wheel bearings, BB and jockey wheels. Only thing left is my pedals. Don't let the other hubbers ignorant opinions put you off. Below are some helpful mail order websites that can assist you with the correct bearing selection, as well as other websites of interest (the skeptics may want to visit them as well). http://www.superflycycles.com/servlet/StoreFront http://www.enduroforkseals.com/id170.html http://www.rouesartisanales.com/article-14507658.html http://www.rouesartisanales.com/article-1069980.html www.ceramicspeed.com

Better still' date=' have a competition to see who can find the best porn avatars. The only problem will be selecting the competition judge(s). [/quote'] We will have to be scientific, how many pixels of public hair constitutes porn? Are Brazilians allowed? (or do we discriminate against South Americans) Must the pic be animated and educational? how many pixels of breast/ nipple will be deamed erotic vs porn? Hey I am not so into porn. I find this topic exclusionary and object to it. Please open up this competition to religion and politics

Narra, buying the books is a fantastic start, now the next step for you is to stop eating McDonalds, get your lazy ass off the couch, get on your bike and put theory into practice

Why do you stop in the first place. You ride a bicycle' date=' you don't push it. [/quote'] Ag Mampara, your name says it all boet! Come for a little ride with me around my part of town so I can put some 'Mountain' in your Mountain Bike.

Just clipping in is not the problem, but clipping in under difficult circumstances is a problem. To start off again and get your foot clipped in on steep or technical inclines is particularly challanging but with four sides you have double the chance of clipping in instantly. In mud you have double the chance of not clogging up, althought eggbeaters are particularly good at mud shedding.

Mampara, have u ever seen an Eggbeater? Next question, have you taken your MTB offroad yet?

And it LOOKs like it could trap mud. Eggbeaters are still tops, four sides to jam your foot into and no place for mud to clog it up. And at that kinda price it is definitely a fashion item for the 'Brag' MTBikers.

Actually this topic has just got much more serious. I have in my posession conclusive proof that BigH is a huge Campy fan. This photo of BigH was recently taken on one of his trainging rides. Enough said!

Harsh reply there turtle as I have never seen MTB riders jotting down tel no's in a notepad at the start of a race. I personally never race with a phone either (weight saving ), so knowing my luck I would crash, be seriously injured, and the good Samaritan that would stop and offer help would be the one that did not have a notepad at the start of the race, or whose pencil was blunt, or who arrived late at the race!!<?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> So it is actually not a bad idea come to think of it!

Some people might view it as animal cruelty. I must say I have the greatest of sympathy for the poor cats!

Can't believe the moral degeneration and decay happening to this once wonderful hub. First lewd avatars become common place and now Pantani as moderator!! What is the world coming to? <?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> No seriously Mr Bling King, a position as moderator could not have gone to a better person. May there be moderation in your moderating coupled with an open mind to diverse and broad opinion.

<?: prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Raleigh riders are real people with feelings too. All real Raleigh riders should round up and rally against Raleigh bashing riders.<?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Well I certainly did not crack the nod with my cycling talent! Must have been my good looks, charm, wit and 'faith' in my own abilities as a decent racing cyclist because there has certainly not been any 'evidence' to substantiate it thus far.<?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

I challenge every hubber to read the book "The God Delusion" by Richard Dawkins or peruse his website www.richarddawkins.net and then return to the hub and debate religion. Deal?

Did Jesus get around on a bicycle or a donkey?

I'm joining the thread very late but I am not going anywhere. The more whiteys that leave the country, the more money I make. The more BEE people that get inappropriately promoted, the more money I make. These are the two biggest factors in making consulting in SA and the rest of Africa a lucrative business for the whiteys who want it.

Naas, its about two things, either you are a very good bike rider or you are a very poor bike rider, or both. <?: prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> So if you are a good bike rider like you obviously are, you could probably win races on any old crap. On the second point I can't say how poor you are, but rich riders will rather spend R30k on a set of wheels because they can and it makes them look good, look faster and feel faster, if nothing else. So to answer your question, if you are a rich cyclist then expensive is definitely better than cheap, but if you are a poor cyclist then cheap is definitely better than expensive. If you are a good cyclist then it does not really matter what you ride.

Will do lowracer, I will also get in touch with amateur to give the donation

Common hubbers, is no one gonna out bid me? In which case I will bid against myself and raise the bid to R350 which seems to be the going price for a bag of dog food.
