  1. LOL, I have only had porridge wheels due to sidewall cuts on light weight tyres since using this mix!
  2. I've been making my own "stans" for many years. We checked it on an infrared scanner and it was a perfect match. You'll need liquid latex. I get mine in PE from a company called Stapol. Propolyne glycol you can order from any pharmacy Distilled water Maize meal about 3 parts by volume liquid latex; about 7 parts by volume water; and about 6 parts by volume propylene glycol. Mix the water with the latex and add the glycol slowly. Mix it well and add a few teaspoons of the maize meal. I sometimes add another teaspoon full straight into the tyre before sealing it. it works out to around one third of the price of Stans.
  3. They have had this rule in place for a long time already. The Buffalo have been at the Rooi Hoek area for many years too. It is Kondomo by the way.
  4. I had this in my right elbow. I got hold of an forearm clamp from a physio.. Plastic clamp with a strap. It supports the elbow and helps with the pain. I used to cycle with it on. Do all hard work with your other arm, like opening doors, picking up heavy things and avoid shaking hands with gym bunnies who tries to break your hand. You might have to pull wire with your other hand for a while. It took around 3 months to heal. I you are planning to do heavy labour, like it appears you are, you will not get better.
  5. So it seems a high protein diet is only safe after 65?? http://www.health24....abetes-20140305 Meat, eggs and cheese are bad for you, a new study says. ~ Shutterstock High protein diets such as Atkins, Dukan, South Beach, Miracle Metabolism and The Zone Diet have, for many years, extolled the benefits of diets low in carbohydrates. Claiming that healthy meals should rather contain higher amounts of protein and, in some cases such as the Tim Noakes diet or the Paleo diet, fat. However, a new study published in Cell Metabolism claims to show that high levels of protein (from animal sources) can in fact have severe negative health consequences in the long term. In particular, adherents of these diets are apparently up to four times more likely to develop cancer and diabetes than those eating smaller amounts of protein. The authors go as far as to suggest that eating a lot of protein (e.g. a diet based on eggs, milk, meat and cheese) increases the risk of cancer almost as much as smoking 20 cigarettes a day Beans better than meat The report also points out that these harmful effects were almost entirely eliminated if this protein was sourced from vegetables such as beans, instead of meat and dairy. Read: Paleo diet, is it worth the switch? The study, which focused on a representative group of 6 381 people aged over 50, aimed to address the lack of long-term studies of the protein-rich diets which have been the subject of renewed popularity in recent years. The lead author of the study, Valter Longo, suggests that to prevent exposure to a high risk of diabetes and cancer, people shouldeat no more than 0.8g of protein per kilogram of body weight a day (equivalent to 48g for a 60kg person, and 64g for an 80kg person). Anything beyond this level is likely to increase the risk of illness. Read: high protein diets are linked to kidney disease In an interesting twist, however, this effect seemed to get reversed once an individual is over the age of 65. After passing this milestone, a high-protein diet was associated with improved health and a lower chance of developing serious illness.
  6. Yes that day kinda spoiled the rest of the holidays.
  7. I was introduced to fly fishing over December by a friend. Spent the day in a secret location in the Eastern Cape and between the 2 of us, we caught and released close to 50 of these guys
  8. I have the same pet hate too, especially late afternoon with the sun in your face.
  9. Why take the plant out the toilet roll? Leave it undisturbed and the carboard will break down quickly.
  10. 2 Black Burn carbon bottle cages at R500 each. Told the shop owner they will not hold the bottle. He said it would. Tossed them after loosing 3 bottles. Using R50 Lezyne cages now.
  11. I wonder if it could be the same 2 guys from 2011. PE is a small place.
  12. My 705 refused to boot up a few times. I eventually removed the SD card and cleaned it before refitting it. Fixed the problem straight away.
  13. 1: It would reduce cramping. That was the OP's problem, remember? 2: Who cares?
