Ou toppie with a boep walks into a shop..... one of the new shops..... Rep "Hallo Oom kan ek help?" Oom "Nee wat ek kyk net rond" After a while I ask him"What happened to the BBB accessories you used to sell" Rep "No they were taken over by Probike" Oom "What on earth would cause a change like that? The conversation moves to bicycles and rep is now aware that Oom might know a thing or two about bikes. Rep after Oom starting to talk about frames "Nee oom hulle maak die rame in Amerika" Oom "Nee jy praat twak hulle maak net die carbon rame by 'n ander fabriek en die smarter rame in Amerika die res word in Taiwan gemaak, dieselfde fabriek wat die Raleigh rame maak wat ook nou BBB versprei" Oom wonner by homself of die rede dat smart winkel XXXXXXX nie meer BBB verkoop nie omdat hulle baas dalk 'n issue met Raleighs het!!!!!!!!!! Dalk nie smart genoeg vir die brands wat hy verkoop nie. Rep " nee Oom hulle maak die rame in 'n fabriek langsaan" Oom (ewe onskuldig " O so word XXXX rame en Gaint in dieselfde fabriek gemaak????? Teen hierdie tyd weet Rep nie meer wat om te se nie en sy baas kom red deur hom anner werk te gee en ek se vir baas hy moet tog sy apies die waarheid van fietse leer en dat hulle nie vir ou Omies moet jok nie. Baas omgekrap en skrik toe ek se ek gaan sy baas bel. Hoekom is die ouens sulke bullsh!tters???????

Greeting van my en Tannie M af!!!!!!!! Dalk sien ons jou nog, ek wil nog vir Oom M gaan kuier voor ons teruggaan Nigerie toe,

So it is on a road bike. Is it the standard Cannondale fork? You can improve safety by fitting Titanium Skewers. The risks involved is great..... as long as you are aware of it. Also remember a disk brake can NEVER be used successfully as a drag brake.

A lot has been said in the answers above. I agree with all. The damage caused by a rim is much greater than the damege caused by a tyre "popping". A disk brake should never be used as a drag brake. Disks does not have the heat dissapating abilities to be used as drag brakes. Disks can and will warp when subjected to "abuse" ie overheating. Fit an Arai drumbrake as Johan suggested. The Yanks use V-brakes with the Arai drum brake. This means an extra brake handle and they mostly leave the job to the stoker. Do this ONLY if you REALLY trust your stoker!!!! They also use drogue chutes used to bring speeds down or control speeds on long decents. We do not have the type of decents in South Africa to warrant the use of a drogue chute. Judicious use of V brakes is more than sufficient. I alternatively brake in fornt and then at the back to bleed speeds on long descents. Rad - on what type of bike do you use the 203 mm rotor, MTB or Road bike and is that both on the fork and rear? If you use a 203mm rotor on the front I really hope you have a fork that is designed for it. Some carbon forks has been known to fail with the use of disks on a road bike. If it is a MTB you and you ride aggressively you should use a 20mm front axle or maxle or even the 23 mm axle as used on the Maveric Duc32 forks. There s been documented cases of normal skewers snapping under load and cases of forks collapsing. So beware!!!!!!!!

It seems they help their local buddies first. Well I will become a local now with my new job. Dashing and the national language in Nigeria will have to suffice. The national language is Naira, the local currency. With my new status M and I will fly business class from now on. Our MD uses an escort convoy with sirens blaring into the airport. Does not stand in the queue does not go through customs, just enters a small door goes up in a lift and straight into their protocol longe. I will have acces to the same when we go back. Skye, I saw the whales at the Inhaca Peninsula in Mozambique in 2006. M and I were sitting high on a dune and we could see them frolicking just on the other side of a coral reef in crystal clear water. Some them flapping tails and doing spectacular rises. AMAZING!!!!!!!

SAA sux..... we flew in with SAA from Lagos this morning and by golly, the staff in Lagos must be the worst in the world. i confirmed my tickets on Moday with a request for a seat at a emergency exit or behind the galley. I am 1.86 m tall and just do not fit into the economic class seats of the 747-400 which they nromally fly on this route. They tried to book them but they were blocked. Theys ent and message to the airport for asiistance and wrote on the message "the pax is large" Well I am but I have a boep. That does NOTHING to the fact that I do not have legroom!!!!!! They gave a number at the airport to contact and confirm. Needless to say nobody ever answered the number. I eventually went back to their offices in Lagos. They said I should send my driver back with the tickets on Frday, the day we were due to leave. Again I could not be helped but this times she wrote on the request that the "pax was very fat", again not a lie but totally unneccesary to call a client FAT in his face!!!!! . All efforts at the airport were fruitless. At the airport I had to take the tickets available becuase the flight was severely overbooked. Luckily it was an Airbvus A340 that has more legroom and all went well. Surely in this day and age of computers they should be able to help a pasenger with specific needs?????? The final straw was at the airport business lounge when after the lady at the counter confirmed that we may enter as I am a Nedbank Voyager Premium Card holder we were told that we cannot enter their lounge!!!!!!! The filght was OK except we were told that we a choice of chicken with rice or chicken with vegetables. I am busy writing a letter to SAA.... not that I expect a reply. I will copy the letter to Nedbank Voyager as well as www.hellopeter.com Sad that our national carrier had to lower their standards just becuase they pay such exorbitant bonusses to their bosses.

Hi All ...... we are safe and sound in Pretoria. We travelled well. SAA in Lagos must be the most deurmekaar airline in the world. Lost my marbles totally a few times during last week. The trip was also long. We woke yesterday morning. packed, did some work, left for the airport, waited and waited and waited and waited and we let at 23h00 (24h00 here) and arrived at 06h00. Had breakfast at the kids, got some groceries and booked in at 11h30. Passed out and slept untill now. Lekker om weer in die beskawing te wees!!!!!!! How did rooiwal go today. We were just too tired to visit. Are ther any more races somewhere next week. Also on 15 September. We leave again on 16 September for Lagos.Hendrik Petoors2007-08-18 10:18:17
