  10. There like a bear!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  11. I can understand this point, but I must say that being as obbsessive as we (cyclists) are, should be a good sign. Imagine how you'd look if you never followed through on anything? Humans are naturally obsessive, so it's a good thing its cycling we choose to obsess about?
  12. Let's see if I have anything of interest to add: I can't understand how women expect men to give up something they love or take an interest in... I think it sucks! My mom does it to my dad, every time he finds a sport/hobbie that he enjoys, she encourages it until he becomes an absolute addict and then cuts him off! We are a complicated bunch! I can't tell you why somedays we are in a bad mood! I'm not married, but do mtb with my BF. Sometimes I think I am more of an addict than him! But I love that we do it together and I love that it is a healthy obsession (even if he spends 90% of his salary on cycling stuff). I say, try get her involved, don't let anyone kill your dreams and use the shredder at work hehe...
  13. I have the opposite, size 2/3, very difficult to find cycling shoes without going 2 the kiddies dept!
  14. Also going, doing the mtb on sunday... But will be supporting fellow roadies on sat!
  15. West Rand schools, such as Arthur Matthews, Westridge and Discovery have been shut down due to violent threats. Allen Glen High has been advised to fetch kids. I am at Panorama and we are sending home kids!!!
  16. We've just had word that they are on surrounding school's property and causing ***, now we have to evict all the kids!!! Scary times...
  17. In the school news letter yesterday it said R7,000 after deductions...
  18. So I arrived at work to be told I have to park on the school field so that they cannot tell there are people at the school, and we have been threatened that we better close tomorrow or else... What is this country coming to??? We run a PRIVATE Grade R facility on a public school's property and now we have to warn parents that for their child's safety, they should be kept at home tomorrow, Monday and Thursday! Fire the lot of them!!!
  19. Here here!!!!!!!!!!!
  20. Csharp photography is good! Always had great service from them... And not badly priced for a digital image! And pixonsite are pretty good too...
  21. We should actually start a thread called 'show us your Merida'!!! Damn they are HOT bikes!!! Nice pics @IdeJongh, @markfr and @voete!!!!
  22. I guess it comes with the territory of cycling in Africa! Just never really thought of antelope as being dangerous!!! An Eland would have done serious harm! Anyone see the notorius Rhino?
  23. Funny, I have Maxxis Crossmarks and I think they are best in mud??? Guess it's just finding what suits you best!?
