  1. Yip - sure is one of the best around town. Always piss cold at the start but that is faded by the time you hit the dam wall. The Monster is all about how much you can stand - I always pretend to hear my mother-in-law behind me as we go up there - helps me to stay angry. Hazeldean is close by but the Monster is a real race - BRING DA NOISE!!!!!
  2. Yip - that`s what my training is aimed at now!
  3. Keen like a bean if we keep it clean! Keen to if we dont!
  4. Enjoy Wolfie. Let the man be - cant imagine what he has been through - dont want to either.
  5. You will be well off with either of those 3 options. Just depend how much cheddar is in your sandwich.
  6. Thought it had something to do with his 532 children. Some say ............ he visited the Virgin Islands on Holiday last year - but it will now only be known as 'The islands' - All we know is that despite being born in the year the bicycles was invented, he still rides pro. Coincidence? I think not!
  7. Nobody Cares! Its Multisport - just do your thing. No politics like roadies - everyone just has fun!
  8. That looks like GXP mate - just buy one at LBS/CWC/Buycycle. They should be about R 400 a pop I think.
  9. Scrumpy covered most of it My 1 tip - whatever happens in the swim - just keep swimming! DONT STOP! The rest will fall in place as you go - running off the bike is always hard - just put away your lipstic, HTFU and get going! Enjoy. There is a short tri in 2 weeks just outside PTA if you like. Small crowd. Check www.sbrevents.co.za.
  10. If the crank shaft has an OD - outer diameter of 30mm it is a BB 30 - otherwise it is a GXP - it will have a step down on the shaft form an OD 24mm to 22mm.
  11. For you guys who want a little tester - check out www.sbrevents.co.za There is a short Dirt-X (off-road) tri on Sun 02 Dec. It is a few km`s past the Roodeplaat dam. Sould be a good indication of what still needs work before Xterra.
  12. Nice Fella`s!!!!! Have been looking forward to this as I didn't do the last 2. Run is starting to look like something and I just love that bike course!!! Real MTB course, gives us a change to catch up with the roadies! Karma - What are you aiming for time wise?
  13. There are a few roads going up to the Magalies ridge 1. Just north of Bremmer st 2. Otherside of the ridge towards Mooi Nooi side They are not gravel but it could be good fun - even a dbl - bike/run for combined time.
  14. Billy Joel Armstrong - Green Day?
  15. Really feel for Kev - remember his speech -" Thanx to Bridge for putting my daugther through Jnr primary" Nasty - specially since I see what I pay for my daughter to go to school
  16. Dude - forget the cortizone gream - go to dischem they heave a home brand babdy bum cream with iron and caster oil. Works 10 times faster than cortizone cream. R 30 I think.
  17. Im almost sure it will but take out the BB an measure the BB shell width on the bike. Take the BB to your LBS and compare the threads.
  18. Lauren is in the lead 61% - 07/11 - 14:45 Keep it going!
  19. "An epic fail - the dreaded sequal" They took a "stab" at it! Too soon?
  20. Nasty to the sport! I thought Kevin to be a gent of the sport but spending so much time in close proximity to someone without knowing says one of 2 tings: Either you are a thick as cultured yogurt or ................. I dont even want to say it
  21. New technology - Im all for it!!! Any progression is a good sign - if not in the specific product then for the spinn off in new directions!
  22. Think Joe Louw needs a pump - he`s a bit edgy
  23. that depends on how many meters of climbing there is! Can we merge those two threads now?
  24. I see the next one is 2 Dec. Where is Helderfontein? Would be a nice to do a due before Xterra in Jan
  25. I did Sani, 3 Towers and van Gaalens on a Slant 6 - 29 x 2.1 (i think) It rolls really nice - had no issues with grip - or lack there of. You prob wont get Crossmark milage out of it but it still seems to be going well. No puctures either.
