  1. Hey jonquil, sorry this reply so slow! I actually bought a DJ bike off of Obike, a GT Ruckus. Obviously GT gets a bad rap for being mass produced, but for the R5700 I paid for it, with R800 of free accessories, its honestly the best bike I have owned after a little customizing! There are a few more on Obike, and if you haven't managed to get a bike, I would suggest you have a look :)

  2. Not cycling related, but a guy across the road from my girlfriend keeps snakes, and apparently whilst trying to take pictures of his Egyptian Spitting Cobra to sell, it spat right in his eyes. By the time his friend had put the snake away and went to check on the guy who was washing out his eyes, he was dead. Freaky stuff man! Begs the question though, should people be able to own such crazy snakes? Permit or not? Imagine if that got out and did the same to some poor sod on the street??

  4. If you listen whilst you riding or before you set off, what songs stoke you up to ride that little bit faster and closer to the edge? Or just have you singing along whilst you fly down the trails??

     

    For me right now its Sonic Syndicate-We Rule the Night and Trivium- Pull Harder on the Strings of My Martyr

    A bit of an acquired hard rock taste :clap:

  5. Nice to see this thread growing, even if its freaking some people out! :lol: Had a run in with a puffie this saturday!! Building jumps between two fields near my house and I often take the dogs with for safety and company! On this occasion my girlfriend brought her two jack russels and I took along the german shepard! As we got there, the dogs all got out as per usual, my girlfriend followed them whilst I inspected the ramp. A few seconds later I hear screaming about a snake, quickly rushed over and called the dogs and got them back into the bakkie! My girlfriend then informed me that her two dogs had run over it, and mine had stood right on top of it, before she realised that they were stading on a snake (curled up and huge was her description) and shouted to them! Drove around to see if we could spot hima after that, but no sign of the bugger! All I can say is, thank God none of the dogs were bitten and now I am to *** scared to go build jumps :(

  6. Hi guys...

    Looking for a new DJ machine, something ready made and sold in South Africa. So the likes of Mongoose, Scott, Specialized and GT... My question is,does anyone have any idea what bike shops are charging for any jump bikes from the manufacturers??

  7. Hey guyz!

     

    As we all know, South Africa is a great country, will all kinds of creatures! The ones I fear most are snakes!!! Whilst digging trails I am constantly aware of them, but luckily I am yet to come across one! This leads me to this post:

     

    Please share some of your encounters and stories with these venomous buggers on the trails??

     

    Also, my girlfriend and I were debating how jacked up South African hospitals are to deal with snake bites, ie. Anti Venom, could anoyone in the know shed some light on this??

  8. Ahh that sucks! South Africa really needs to get jacked up with a proper CRC like store! Those Canyon bikes look the ****, wouldn't mind one of them! Anyone ordered a full bike from CRC or winstanleys? What sorta import duties etc do you have to pay?
