Somebody will come up with the argument that the "throttle" is in actual fact a volume control 👻

This is textbook "hate speech", given the broad definition applied by SA's judicial circus 🧐

In SA crime does pay handsomely ☝️

The landlord 🤷‍♂️

Agree with @ChrisFtotally. What message does this recent farsical "sentence" send to perps? No new laws or regulations are required. Simply enforce those that are in place. How many more laws/rules did this navy officer have to break in order to receive a sanction worthy of his crimes? Driving under the influence, which by the way could not be proven since the coward drove off without stopping at the scene. Admitting to driving under the influence is not the same as being arrested, tested, and found to be over the legal limit. let's pray this incident restores our faith in SA's legal system.

This is the same guy that threatened BikeHub with legal action, RIGHT 🤷‍♂️ Kan jy nou meer .......................................... Reminds me of a certain multiple le Tour winner who used this very same tactic every time somebody dared accuse him of doping. He successfully ran his bullying scheme for many years before he "bonked" History's got this dirty habit of repeating itself

Best is to supply the SAPS office that arrested him with all the case numbers. Relying on SAPS's pony mail system would have this guy out on bail for the next 5 years before any case is brought before a judge or magistrate. The investigating officer worth his salary should then be able to connect all the dots in a very short time, else this person is a free man ............ for now that is.

🤣 It might get tricky to put this bad boy back into it's holster while motoring downhill with one hand on the bars ...............................

Clocked 28 deg C in Wellington at 05:45 this morning. Humidity is next level with typical thunder cloud cover. Rain expected within next 24 hours. Conditions might just go further south than yesterday 😬

I had a similar tiff with a service provider in January 2025. After I left his company a stinker review the owner started harassing me with threats of legal action. These are typical lowdown tactics to scare you. In my case I told him to proceed with legal action, which turned out as I expected - hot air. The total cost to recover is the guide in these cases. Going to court to recover R10k is simply stupid, hence the existence of the small claims court where no legal representation is required or allowed. It does not make sense to spend R30k to recover 10, keeping in mind that you DO NOT have a solid case. R50k claims is the max cut-off value for small claims court. Me thinks this dude is trying to scare you.

Like a Briggs & Straton on NOS ..................... not going anywhere in a hurry, yet the noise is deafening 😝

The "normally aspirated" cyclists that benefitted from the pace set by these e-bikers got their "rewards", right 😥 ............... what a shame. Whom of us have never tucked in behind a tandem tearing up the tarmac? Conventional drafting another legit bike is part of a race of this nature. Keeping the wheel of said e-bike is a totally different story and downright cheating. All I am saying is that the CTCT does not benefit from poorly regulated bike categories, ie. e-Bikes

I had an issue 2 months ago where a weasal advertised "free quotes", then charged my 4 hours labour to prepare a quote that should typically have taken 30 minutes. Then he threatens to hold back my property if I do not pay for the quote. I did an EFT for the amount in order to recover my stuff. I then approached my bank(the 4 letter one) to reverse the transaction, backed by an affidavit etc. They refused, stating that it was a civil matter between two individuals. They advised me to use the legal route to recover my money - after 40 years of being a loyal customer. Unless you have friends in special places, the banks are reluctant to get involved in these matters. They'd much rather just take your hard earned money for monthly banking fees and interest.

Took podium in the Team Category as well neh 💪 Those 47C's really did the job just fine 👌

Got this news article from mate of mine. Small victories, yet good will prevail in the end.

"The photo does not do it justice .... GOOD looking !!" ....... 😜 Enough of the lady ................ your opinion of the bike 🤷‍♂️

I guess it is his property now and he can sell for whatever makes him tick. My story ........ I blessed somebody with a fully functional and licenced scooter. Two weeks later he sells it for a handsome price. Needless to say - I was ticked as hell. Fact is, once you are not the owner any longer, the new owner can do with the item as they please. As they say in the movies ..... If you want loyalty, get a dog

Ja right 😵 These dingbats want to see oncoming traffic, yet they can't be bothered to push an oncoming cyclist into the roadway because they wont budge to allow him/her/them to pass safely without being run over from behind. In my parts of the Cape Winelands, this has become way too frequent. Sometimes they are 2 abreast, spread across the width of the yellow shoulder. OK, admittedly the majority of these riders are NOT cyclists. Bicycles are mere means of transportation. Cars and trucks however do not discriminate between a R50k or R500 bicycle. Ai, ai, ai 👽

Sounds like a pyramid scheme to me 😵

Trust your gut

For sure 😬 You would certainly get the desired airtime should any of the poor defenseless criminals get injured. Imagine the chaos in their ranks if a stray thunderflash makes an aerial entrance into the squatter camp. They might just decide to voluntary relocate. OK, the phone just woke me up from a carpet trip.

Hell YES 🤙 No looting or vandalism reported neither. Cyclists are generally lekke people 👊

Hi all, Does anybody have experience with a 9spd wide range cassette? I have 2x9 brifters and RD. My gravel build will start off as a 2x or 1x 9. The FD mech will provide a challenge since road FD's are generally bottom-pull and my frame is a top-pull MTB setup. I have done the pulley routine in the past to pair a bottom-pull FD with a top-pull frame, but I want to try a 1x this time around. Is it worth it? My aim is to comfortably reach a top end of 40, yet not have to push my bike up Suikerbossie or Du Toits. What are your views on a 34/11-40 if in fact it's worth doing it? Thx, appreciated
