  1. I'm looking for fellow riders wanting to share travel expenses to Isimangaliso in August. Our team is coming from 2 different areas, and don't want to waste money or time either driving down separately, or driving a detour to meet up. Anyone wanting to share costs from either Joburg, or the Lowveld, let me know so we can make it happen. Rubber Down! David
  2. I'm looking for Sani2C Race participants driving down from Joburg with space for one or two more persons and bikes. Received a late entry but car shuttle is fully booked. Happy to use our vehicles if you're willing to transfer the shuttle booking. Will contribute to shuttle costs and fuel etc. Alternatively, just to take a bike or two down?
  3. I have to say we are thrilled at the positive feedback on our proposed venture. We were really racking our brains on whether this was in fact a good idea, but from the enthusiastic response by our fellow hubber's, it looks like its all systems go! We were wondering whether there would be requests for a 'straight from the source' menu item, but let me assure you that the instinctive latching skills of infants, and lack of teeth, are essential to coaxing that most delightful of treats from it's enclave. I guess we could consider a similar system to the frozen yogurt model whereby patrons can at least manage the tap by hand? I will consult with my beautiful wife and give feedback on this option - although I think this may be a step too far.
  4. To all Berg & Bush riders looking for that competitive edge - look no further! I was afforded the opportunity to do the Cape Pioneer but had already paid for an entry to the Berg n Bush which overlaps by a day. My wife, who recently gave birth to our beautiful baby girl, decided to take my spot - but we are now faced with the challenge of maintaining her milk production whilst away from our guzzling bundle of joy. It then dawned on us that a "supply and demand" scenario was in fact staring us right in the face, or breasts for that matter. It's no secret that the benefits of breast milk on athletic performance is quite profound. It also no secret that breast feeding mothers who do not release their milk supplies regularly, end up with rather swollen and often uncomfortable breasts, but also run the risk of losing their production whilst away from the feeding child. In order to prevent this undesired outcome for my wife, she has no option but to express whilst at the event - directly after completing the days ride and a few more times until the start of the next stage. As there is no practical way of storing the expressed milk for later use, she has little choice but to 'pump and dump' as the saying goes. But wait, there is an alternative! At a small fee, she is willing to offer her 'protein shake' - which by the way is ADA approved - to all riders looking for that competitive edge. We estimate that she can produce anything from a litre, to 1.5 litres per day. Menu items include: Sip the NipA delicious 25ml serving of mothers milk prepared to a perfect 37°C, served in a crystal shot glass moulded in the shape of a delightful little breast. ZAR 20.00 p/25ml serving The C-CupA delicious 250ml serving of mothers milk prepared to a perfect 37°C, served in a replica 1937 Bennets Baby Cup moulded from the highest quality BPA free plastics. (Definitely a Collectors Item) ZAR 200.00 p/250ml serving The JugFor the more serious competitor looking to feed on the oppositions weakness, we are also open to the sale of an entire days supply of ‘jug juice', but in order to preserve quality, refrigerated storage is needed which will affect the price. The Jug is served in a NUK baby bottle shaped ‘bidon’ (or sports bottle for the less refined cyclists). ZAR 1000.00 p/1L serving So for anybody serious about performing at their highest level, message me directly for contact details and kiosk operating hours at the 2014 instalment of Berg and Bush. At Simply the Breast, our milkshakes bring both the boys and the girls to the yard.
  5. Hey DR, Is there a specific grease you would recommend for the bearings, or doesn't it really matter?
  6. Can anyone tell me where I can find a user-friendly platform that compares all the latest mountain biking components, across all major brands? Buying a bike these days involves a fair amount of cross referencing as the components often vary quite a bit. It would be great to compare various specs that include things such as suspension, wheels and all the detailed components. I do realise that some components might be ranked differently by different riders, but a general consensus would serve me well. With some brands it's a mission just getting your head around their own coding systems, let a lone how those products compare with competitor ranges. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!
