  1. Would it still be an infringement if acknowledgement is given to the scource?????? In the case of Road Bike Rider(RBR) I post snippets from their newsletter but always refer to RBR??????
  2. Not bandages' date=' Fishnet stalkings.!![/quote'] Fishnet stalkings....... is this someting hunters use to stalk fish or is it the latest in aerodynamic attire or are you reffering to this:- kous, (-e), stocking, sock; gaiter (springs); wick (gas-lamp); hose, socks,
  3. Try www.chainreactioncycles.com They stock almost all brands including park Tools, Pedro's and Topeak. While you order also look at their brand-x grease guns. Works very well and cost about R40-00. Also order some consumables like Shock Oil, Hydraulic oil, brake pads or disk pads, chains(surf for this as they offer value packs of three chains at a reduced price), connector pins, BB's and headsets. The prices are good and way cheaper than in RSA. Combine your order with other cyclists and if you order I think more tha GBP450-00 your postage or shipping is free. You only pay VAT (14%) on arrival. They also have a handy currency converter..... look in the upper right hand corner that gives all prices live in ZAR. I have purchased several times and had no problems.Hendrik Petoors2007-07-14 05:10:20
  4. If Vino starts today..... TROUBLE!!!!! You can hide a lot behind bandages!!!!!! bandages telss other people you are hurting..... capice!!!!!!
  5. I went from Revue in Moz to Petoorieja with the MTB tandem and two MTB's on the Venter. I showed no serious increase in fuel consumption. I guess the 3l KZTR Toyota is just better than the rest. I must also say we were packed to our limit with some of the camping goods stashed on top of the trailer betwen the bikes and a lot of stuff inside the double cab. She did not even notice it. Unfortunately I had to give her back to the Chaainiees Contractor.
  6. Kobie why would you want to use a 10 speed chain on a 9 speed drivetrain. I may be corrected but I doubt if it would work, The width of the sideplates is smaller than an nine speed. I think te chain may jam. Also what I well know is that you cannot use a nine speed on a ten speed. This will definitely jam. Most cassettes are riveted and only the smaller sprockets have spacers.
  7. In the mean time use them!!!!!!!!!!
  8. The LOTTO affair still haunts me!!!!!!!
  9. tee heeee Scotty you are even better than a priceless credit card!!!!!!!!!!
  10. I luv the High Speed Industrial fan on the spinners. It makes my boep wobble and it reflects as extra energy output.
  11. Widget, most of this was expounded in a previous thread by Once.... whom I assume is connected to Velokhaya. The posting was blocked by ADMIN due to "thread hijacking" It was one of those hard hitting threads with comments coming in fast and furious. The whole initiative sound way to much to the now infamous SACF/Lotto/Raleigh RC3000 saga that also caused great discussion. The fact that Velokaya advertises on Die Wielnaaf had nothing to do with the thread being blocked. Hendrik Petoors2007-07-12 02:44:25
  12. and...... because he has the best STIFF middle finger in the business!!!!!!!!! tee heee!!!!! With his first showing on stage two M and I were spinning. We picked up the adrenalin of the race and it became part of us. For the first time in my life I was involved in the sprint of my life. My hr turend at 97% of max HR. It took me a few minutes to find my lungs and heart where they were hopping around on the floor. It was absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!!
  13. ...and then you get those that are jealous and become suur-tiete like me and I suppose you oom H. It's training technology advancing like Lotus/Domino 6/7/8 from Lotus 1-2-3. Remeber you also got the latest PDA... is that not considered being yuppie? You were asking everyone on the HUB how to use it right? I say if the okes got R5k - R25k to blow on a power meter, let them. I do think this is the way to go wrt to training in cycling. I can't recall a pro still using HR as a method to train. I still do, but that's just because I don't have the moola to buy a power meter yet. [/quote'] Well I suppose you are right. I cycle for fun..... not becuase I want to prove anything. I know I am not a "typical" cyclist, I am the typical retired prop forward. Cycling is just not my core business and I am sedentary when compared to some that can power the Bronx in a power cut. I would much rather spend my munny on cameras, computers, PDA's and the such. Hell I even have a HRM that record the cadence AND profile of the route. I suppose I do not have to prove how strong I am, I am happily married, have two grownup kids your age, jobless and happy. I still think powermeters mounted on the drivetrain is a passing FAD and will be replaced by the new saddle being developed by Selle San Tortono. It has a gel encased load cell that sends wireless messages to a unit on your handlebars. They discovered through rigorous testing that the amount of grip you exert on the saddle can be converted to energy output. They reckon by using a empiric formula encoded on the chip they use that they can give much better and accurate readout than all of the powermeters currently on the market. They reckon they will have the majority share of the market investing in their new and exiting product. the first saddles that weighs 185 grams made with carbon fibre and titanium rails with the load cell and handlebar unit should arrive in South Africa within the next three to five weeks. The unit is easy to use, no calibration needed. You fit the new saddle, switch on the load cell, fit the handlebar unit and off you go.Hendrik Petoors2007-07-11 16:32:18
  14. Here I can vouch for ADMIN. When I asked about the Revue Cycling Club with 15 members he answered, al little late but he apologised about pressing matters. All applicants are however eagerly awaiting the unique opportunity. Do I as lifelong chairman become a moderator onf my own club....... by golly at last I will be somebody of stature!!!!!!!!
  15. Hierdie is NIE 'n klip in die bos nie maar die reine waarheid!!!!!! Please do not ask about this but the mail was deleted in my own stupid trusting nature.Hendrik Petoors2007-07-11 10:37:32

  20. Ok so the mumbo jumbo are confusing you...... here is my master plan. We contrive our own code system based on the ENIGMA code used by the Germans in WWII, where what you read is nice and pleasing but we are really pulling the CSA/ARGUS/PPA cartel ADMIN and the moderators to pieces. We are laughing and still enjoying ourselves and they are feeling good. The feeling good portion of it we will call the ENEMA code. They will hear what they want to hear and we are really actually pulling them to pieces. imagine how frustrtaed they will be if they cannot distinguish between drivel 9what most of us talk here) and really good conversation (what they want us to talk here) Maybe they will then block all postings...... yah I think they will!!!!!!!
  21. The whole power thing is just a new Yuppie fad. I cannot see any improvement in Elite cyclsits over what they were previously. All that they now have is a new toy to brag about and prove that their skinny legs does have muscles.
