Wobbles

I do not agree. It is an account of his experience.

I did not bother, my wife stitched it. Unfortunately I will now look elsewhere for kit.

I bought some bibs less than a year ago. The seam at the back unstitched .....embarrassing!!

I think unethical is not honoring the first person who called dibs on your price. That is why this thread has started - because of lack of ethics. I also buy a lot of golf stuff on an American forum and in 10 years of buying, I have had no problems with my dibs's. I must say though, I have had no problems with my numerous dealings in The Hub

Can you get me the old half jacket Marnitz?

A very good thread Smimby. The biggest problem in this country are impatient motorists. A very much smaller problem are cyclists who don't obey the rules. If motorists gave us 1,5 meters then the roads would be safer for everyone. I don't believe riding 2 abreast on a wide road is a problem - in fact it is safer as motorists don't squeeze you off the tar.

Why are we letting an Arab talk crap?

I agree with her! But...........it is a lot better than spending your day in the bar.

Greetings, my son and his mate now want to join me at Argus. If you know of anyone who has entered but is not riding please let me know and I will pay you for your entry(s) and organise the substitutions with the organisers so that they can ride under their own names and get their own seeding. thanks.

What is your take on riders not entering races and then riding them "unofficially"? The organisers say these riders will be pulled off but in practise this does not seem to happen.

I am not sure how one qualifies for Olympic places in cycling and hockey...mainly because I consider cycling administation at all levels rather antiquated. In Track & Field and Swimming, athletes have to meet a certain standard to qualify and counties are allowed to send up to 3 athletes per event. Smaller countries like RSA have no problems because we don't have the depth but in the USA they have trials and the first 3 on the day goes! A bit harsh if you have an off day but the athletes respect this and there is no whining and moaning afterwards.

Yep tough choices as the SC panel said. whoever gets left out is unfortunate. Impey seemed to be a common choice and Taylor not. Well done CSA!!

Spectator facilities were shocking!!

Of course Campy is the best for road (sorry to intrude!).
