  1. I don't see SA Parks working up in Tokai forest???? Maybe we all cyclists have strike or march up to Manor House to demand to use it sooner..
  2. Pay back for activity card... R460 to drain??? Cant we cycle up jeep track to Mast and back? Just put sign and we enter on our own risks..
  3. They can change course, we can cycle along N1 to Durbanville, turn left to Vissershoek, then left at Tableview and finish at top of Kloof Neck or Signal Hill... Oops! Exciting!
  4. I like this shop, very clean and tidy. I know most specialized owners will love that shop, but I am not specialized owner and I will prefer a shop that sells at least 5 branded bikes, so that I can compare and test them before I buy it. How can I compare if they only sell Specialized bikes?
  5. Discovery is very clever to put off till February because they don't want to loose us, when we renew our discovery membership. When February comes, they will tell us that they can't help us and then we are stuck with them for the rest of the year....
  6. Go to Trial & Tar and they do have group rides...
  7. I don't blame Rosberg because of what happened on previous race... Team order Hamilton to move over for Rosberg, but he ignored order and nearly put Rosberg off the road. So they agreed to take away team order, it made it even worst. Hamilton needs to grow up... You know German/ Swiss guys are hard people and they don't take non-sense. I am hoping Rosberg win Championship this year...
  8. I don't mind if he stays behind or front of our training team, but he must not interfere with our training team (open gap or squeeze in between us or whatever)
  9. Few years ago, I did not plan anything and I just brought light small tent with me and pack-bag. I travelled by train or coach. Transport is fantastic and I just put tent up in the mountains next to the road. The TDF riders come past. The best is to bring friend with and have fun... I will try go again in few years time....
  10. What will happen, if I arrive to Europe and friend give me the bicycle as gift. I bring it home to SA. How can I proof the customs the value of the bicycle? Or must I get a writing, saying as gift?
  11. Maybe we can invent a small dynamite and put inside the frame... When it gets stolen or robbed, we can press panic button and the frame get exploded....
  12. Oh no! it is out of stock...
  13. Where can I get good price for them? They normally cost over R700 each.... Lots of money!!
  14. It happened to me as well, so I use duct tape to cover the lid and I never lost it again....
  15. I had Capestorm and First Ascent bibs for years and I ride 5/6 times a week. They last, but not comfortable. They are okay up to 2hrs ride. I also had Giodana bib and it is most comfortable than 2 of them, but it does not last.. Strange! I would love to buy Assos oneday, but can't afford it...
  16. Good pts! Why don't we park a bit further up and down the road? If that person notice that he will be robbed soon, he can press warning buttons, then we all come out immeditaley
  17. Why don't we all hide nearby and get someone stand there with bicycle? If they rob that person, we all jump out nearby and moer them.... Never mind the police who don't have time for us or there are shortage of staff... It feels like we have to be locked up in our house and the criminals are free to rob and steal anything... Enough! Enough!
  18. Also look at Matt White, sport director at Orica-GreenEdge, admitted Saturday that he doped during his tenure as a rider at the U.S. Postal Service. Read more at http://velonews.competitor.com/2012/10/news/matt-white-admits-doping-steps-down-from-orica-greenedge-aussie-national-team_261255#8e7SYBYpbwFAuryL.99
  19. Looks like the supplement program is being run by Dr Manuel Rodriguez Alonso, rather than through Green Edge's AIS connections
  20. I feel sorry for him, but I wonder if his team doctor spike stuff in their food or drinks.... His team doctor was involved with doping in years back and he should be banned for life!
  21. Lighter the bike, the weaker the frame?? I prefer stiff frame, especially for racing...
  22. Go for wider tyres....
  23. I agree with you, but if I want to take my wife and daughters to ride there for fun, so I must pay R135 for them to ride for one hour. Crazy! They only ride maybe once a month and annual permit is not worth it for them..
