My weight problem is not on the bike

Just bought a 31.6 to 27.4 converter from my LBS for 120ZA ronds - they said no problem to get any converters

And can only say WHY .... ?

Sooner or later everyone wants a Specialized so cut the crap and get one right up front

On your 'light geared bike' you pansy?

Mostly 'panic' training

I can see the headline "only survivor as planes crashes into Everest at full speed"

Gotta love the 'old' timer hubbers :clap: - there is hope here yet!

jeez i am messing up all over, first 1H now the big guy - won't post anymore today

OK OK I did forget to add this caveat "except for 1H"

:unsure: mmmmm implying the 'ubbers aren't always right and only do the right thing at all times, that my friend will get you crucified Pass the aromat!

Not every one can do eye surgery ......... bike maintenance is not rocket science, life or sight threatening ....

See you there! At least I can wheelsuck behind Boris' training partner for a while till you drop me

He's alright that ManFrog dude

Well at Rietvlei I think :- Yellow - simple route - good for beginners and kids Green - 'normal' route - good for average riders, some technical stuff included (I don't always agree with them but anyway) Blue - Advanced route - some pretty technical stuff and advanced technique required Black - For nutters only! Use with care at your own risk with protection? This is only my opinion though ....

What do you want a racing bike or a tourer round the suburb bike? Simple hey!

I ride 2 bikes with SRAM X9 and 2 with Shimano (LX and XT) and some of them have many many k's on them, When clean and well setup they work fine. Been riding SRAM since 2004 ..... IMHO the only difference is that SRAM will shift slightly better in mud, having said that like with mud tyres it also gets to a point at times (SabieX ....) where there is so much it doesn't matter I agree that your LBS should get their act together and find the problem. Even better learn to sort it yourself

I don't see it affecting them at all, how many have valid licences/physical addresses/ID books?

Is it just me? I wonder ..... I drive nearly 30 000k's a year and have only been stopped in a roadblock a few times. When I have been I have been asked courteously for my license which they checked and returned to me then told me to move on. Maybe I just don't look like a 'criminal' and 'too poor' to pay a bribe so they don't bother or maybe I'm just 'too law abiding' Never been asked for a bribe or offered one ....

And if all medals were bottle openers you would be complaining what to do with all the bottle openers
