  1. Does anyone know if the 70km route descent from Greek Church takes the "novice" route or the other one? If it takes the right split.... ooooohhhh eh eh.
  2. Anyone know of a local retailer for these? http://bontrager.com/model/07858 *edit* "Local" meaning northern joburg.
  3. considering the way durban drivers drive, it's probably the best place to start with. my thoughts is that its progression towards a more cyclist-aware society. #winning
  4. reminds me of that pic with the caption "they said I could be anything I wanted to be. So I became a cloud"

  13. Lol, and you're wearing the same yellow bangle as me nogal.
  14. nostalgic. very similar to the 2nd watch I owned, about 15 years ago
  15. MTB = Mountain Bike / Biking. XCO = Cross country - 1 discipline. "Trail" is less hectic, the sort of stuff that you would be riding. You also get AM (All Mountain) / Enduro, FR (Free ride) and DH (Downhill), with each having slightly different considerations in bike design. Read more: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_bike
  16. I loved mine to bits too.

  18. not as secksi as your pics. u reckon he considers himself a commuter? Distance: 0km. Ascent: 20m. Gradient: 100%. Koms: 1
  19. +1. Gonna pass on some advice that I got last week - "Speak to 'The Citec Guy'". Even though I'm not running them, got some good advice back from him on some options.

  21. Definitely. Next warm up @ VG on saturday. I'll pack my excessively large backback again
  22. Agreed, very lekker ride. Yoh, that legs climb.... almost made it, just lost my line 3/4 of the way up the concrete strips. Boeries and beer at the end went down like a home sick mole.
  23. I called line :whistle:
  24. The rear side of seat post tube just below the clamp. Opinions on repairability? My thoughts are not on trail rides. Maybe a candidate for a commuter ride if I weld it
  25. heya cat-i. I'm on the corner of Grayston and Benmore: Head down benmore road (keep left, there's a pathway off the road), first right after the robot (Loundon i think). Follow, and it becomes ballyclaire. Keep right, there's single track just after crossing Colleraine. You can drop onto the spruit at the bridge and then follow through to Pick n Pay on william nicol. Alternatively, right down to the end of Benmore, left onto Outspan and down 8th through Parkmore is quiet. To get to Benmore, down Rivonio, left @ morningside clinic past the Keg, left at the circle and first right. Those routes have lots of pavement and little traffic. I hope you're not a roadie
