  4. Fanie if you are a "real" climber take the short cage. If you wear lenderhosen cycling shirts like Marius used to, then go for the long cage, or else you won't be able to use the 27 gear.
  5. Viagra is a well tested performance enhancer, much better than highrise and ginko plus.

  9. MORELETA SPRUIT ENVIRONMENTAL DAY: 20 SEPTEMBER 2008 You can make a difference! SOAPKidz wants to make a big impact on the environment this year. One of our biggest projects will be the cleaning of the Moreleta Spruit on 20 September 2008, to transform it into an unsoiled, beautiful, hiking trail for everyone to enjoy. We can achieve this by working closely with the different Conservation and other groups, involving kids from various children's homes in our project. Of course having fun, while doing the work, will be at the top of our list. (Read more about what we do, at the end of this document). Since the preservation of nature is something that lies very dear to the heart of each and every person involved with SOAPKidz, we are determined to make this, another great success story for nature as well as the children involved. 200 teenagers from various children's homes and places of safety will be invited to participate in the event. They will be divided into 20 teams for a whole day of work, excitement and interesting talks, starting with a breakfast at the Faerie Glen Pick 'n Pay and ending at the Pioneer Museum in Silverton - about a 10 km hike. Activities will include: Breakfast; Treasure hunt; Crossword puzzles; Tree planting; De-weeding; Obstacle course; Recycling; and obviously hiking. VOLUNTEERS NEEDED The SOAPKidz organisation wants to make caring for our children and environment a number one priority in our community. In an effort to give the community an opportunity to participate in this initiative, we are inviting anyone to become a volunteer for the SOAPKidz. The job of a volunteer consists of anything from, helping with the food and drinks, to being assigned to a group of kids for supervision through activities, to planning or presenting activities. Helping with transport to and from activities, giving smiles and hugs, planning of events, admin or helping with PR. What ever you feel you can contribute, we can use, and you will be welcomed with open arms and hearts. If you are not already one...what are you waiting for? You are missing out on a whole lot of fun and "feel good". For this next event (above), we will need a lot of hands, so please let us know as soon as possible, if we can count you in. Sincerely, The SOAPkidz Team SOAP KIDZ has reached 7500 people since April 2005 and has picked up more than 1200 bags of litter. As a non-profit organisation, we aim to create environmental awareness and promote nature conservation amongst underprivileged and abused children. With the help of the various outdoor activity groups - mountaineering, canoeing, mountain biking, hiking and orienteering clubs, as well as volunteers who help out with supervision, we teach these children about: nature, the preservation thereof, self preservation, life, friendship, first aid, prevention & living with HIV & AIDS, trust, loyalty, courage, communication, team work, business, marketing & social skills etc. Every activity incorporates 'ENVIRONMENTAL CLEAN UP PROJECTS' with a prize for the team who collects the most litter. The organization relies solely on donations and volunteer work, and welcomes any body willing to open their hearts and have some fun for a day or two. Companies are also encouraged to sponsor any event or part thereof, from transport, fuel, food, to employee volunteers or just good old cash.

Disc brakes a must Deore is minumum, though LX and XT are nice (XTR is sponsorware) Go tubeless (even ghetto tubeless) Ride at Groenkloof on saterdays and sundays
  14. Preparation for something like the Olympics in SA is a joke' date=' that's the problem. The fact that our sports directors think that by organising a few training camps a few years leading up to the games suggests their lack of knowledge. It takes about 10 years to develop an athlete to be able to compete at that level? why do our sports director think we ca do it in less? Are they that stupid? Sport in SA is being handicapped by a number of factors: 1. The amount of money put into top level sports ? that why most top athletes leave. 2. Quota systems in anything other than development sides ? pathetic! 3. Sport in tertiary institutions is not where it should be. There are more? but the bottom line is that too many people are getting involved in sport who should not be involved in sport. How can you develop sport if the people at the top are there for political reasons alone?[/quote'] and the Zimbabwe model for success is?
  15. a bronze thingmajig that goes around the neck. I think.

  20. I just got mine done done at Hatfield cycles (not yours or your wife). They get a guy from the suppliers (J&J) out to do it. Get bliksempie to be useful, and take your bike there. Cost- with campy, if you ask, you can't afford. (and you better off with shimano)
  21. feedback 123electronics (in Waverley pta)sells a 3W downlight (yes 3W) for about R180. I was able to source one cheaper, but that place has closed down) So for R300, you can have a 3W bike light . (USe plumbers pipe for the light) and a R80 12V gate battery for the power unit.
  22. but I would not use sliced bread to clean my chain. Well maybe.......
