Mate of mine did Sabie challenge on full lockout, he thought that his fork had given up on him, felt like real tool when his LBS told him nothing wrong with fork ~ lol
Sorry mate misunderstood your question - close to RosemRy Hill in Pta East is a railway line, can travel along railway line all the way to Kempton, fairly safe and flat
R21 (airport rd) flows best
Look to side of tool, should be a screw which when turned loosens chainbreaker from tool and allows you to use allen key to turn chainbreaker screw
Put me down for one of those blue jobbies above ;-)
I use Evertrail and after my ride upload my trips on the internet. From there i can export /import the gpx files to my garmin
I can likewise export/import routes to my iphone from the Evertrial website.
says who :-)Size doesn't matter
Nope - the law of Transvaal applies, ask me, I know
Rather late than never, but yeah well done
Most bike racks have a weight limit - so the weight of the 4 bikes together becomes an issue.
• Bosal has an excellent rack but it only caters for 2 bikes - they are not prepared to stake their reputation on a rack carrying more than 2 bikes/30kg.
• Thule does have racks, good ones, catering for 3-4 bikes, tight squeeze though and expensive
• I think Buzz rack also caters for 3 -4 bikes
• Check out the following website and speak to Barry www.rackandcarry.co.za
personaly, i would stick to the trialer
Had hoped that cuddles would do as he promised - attack in the mountains but that now seems like pie in the sky, (pun not intended). Had it not been for teamorders and Froome being in the same team I doubt if nigly Wiggi would have had the advantage which he currently enjoys. I agree, whether it be Armstrong or Contador - they would have led an attack notwithstanding their lead.
Difficult to describe, best i can do is to say that when you are out there pushing yourself it is not the competing but the feeling of being one with the bike forgetting about all else and just concentrating on the moment, the freedom and that feeling of experiencing true Nirvana
Wind was really pumping today together with that lose sand made the going quite tricky at times but otherwise very enjoyable outing
Much better map than the previous one which they had. Does not show any new routes. However, it still reamins a nice place to ride in.
There is a bit of arrogance in all of us, more so if you accomplished what he did. I actually enjoy the side show. Rahther that than the alternative where someone actually wins the TdF only to be disqualified for doping. As long as he does not deride his fellow competitors I say "jolly good show old chap"
I initially ran a 42/28 setup on my Tallboy and after some knee discomfort switched to a 39/26 setup which for me seems to work better. Matter of Trial and error, depending on the type of riding you do. If your riding consist of mostly flat terrain with no huge mountains I would recomend the 42/28 setup whereas if mountains come into the equation I would rather opt for a 39/26setup.
I have noticed that on the 2X10 Shimano and Sram's ratio's differ - worth looking into
Much easier to unscrew valve and use a big syringe fitted with a tube over valve body, no fuss or mess. Top up in less than 30 seconds

Has to be the same team members as this year - you can do a substition later once you have gained an entry. Also double check the following - age of both participants (tend to default to today's date) and number of events completed
Voetsole werk net so goed 
Seriaas, afhangende van jou sak sal ek Magura of Formula ook aanbeveel
I think that we as South African riders are bike snobs and we over spec our bikes! I have ridden many different groupsets and the biggest difference was my own ability and my own fitness levels! When I am fit and therefore have better abilities, SLX is more than suffecient. (Old Deore lx) As long as you are out there riding and enjoying it, what is on your bike should be the last thing on your mind, provided you have a good maintenance regime!
:thumbup: - how true we all tend to forget that ultimately it comnes down to the pedalling. Burry Stander, Kevin Evans etc, although they would have preferred something else, would do equally well no matter what groupset
Tried Sidi's, Shimano but found that this shoe fits my broad feet the best. Cant go wrong, be careful of import duty if you buy from Evans,could work out more than what they cost locally
Bummer, we all dread that happening to us. Hope you retrieve it

Nice. Worhwhile investing in having it covered in plastic film before you start your build. Bit pricey, I had mine done and 3 years later dont regret it, protects the frame, they normally specialize in doing the higher end sportcar market.
Enjoy
