rob!

Nah, I often crack the 100 km/h. It really isn't that difficult and actually doesn't even need skills. Just a suitable decline. A few extra kg's make it even simpler. Talent I see none apart from his celebrating skills - nice shadow work. That left turn could certainly have been take a bit differently. Quite intersting tho how more and more cyclists are carrying video cameras now. I quite enjoyed the Sani2C clips. Geeez, there's a fat cow on the road of the dauphine broadcast

Hmmm....it's not that special to break the 100 km/h mark. But the dude celebrates himself like a football player scoring for the world cup win. hmmm great countryside tho.

If you'd know how the lion drives you'd probably agree that he's not a donor. If he gets in an accident he'll be so stuffed up that only his armpit hair could be donated.

See, I said stupid poll but still voted. Pleasure!

Where's the option "I would ride my motorbike into the back of an ambulance to take me directly to the hospital"

Such a stupid poll.

55, not 50 - you'll love it berry!

Probably! I'll find you after the race and you can tell about your technical challenges!

My brain work's excellent druing rides, especially long rides. In the last hour of the ride I usually cook a whole delicious menu in my mind...only tog et home and decide for the quick pasta/pizza meal

Pansie Berry you are hopefully doing the 50 k!

There are plenty of online shops in Germany. A number of them has been mentioned already - the easiest thing is probably if you get a Bike or Mountain Bike magazine in Germany on your arrival (available for example at any petrol station). In there you'll find way to many online shops which you can browse then. Depending on which bike shop you go to the shop might have a larger choice for commuter/trekking bikes than the purely MTB or road bike choices. However there are also more than enough shops that will satisfy your needs, just depends on where you are. the shops in bigger cities usually have more stuff for the recreational rider. Stuff in shops in Germany is a bit cheaper than in ZA (also depending on the exchange rate) but the online shops are certainly dramatically cheaper than in ZA.

I was thinking about Intern's post over the weekend and increasingly disagree with the statement of Tyler coming clean and thus being forgiven. It takes some courage to reveal your doping past (which, to be honest, is anything but a surprise). On the other hand he might just be a sofite, not able to live with his past as a cheat (the group dynamics only work as long as you are part of it) for the rest of his live and thus decided to come clean. Further, as correctly stated, it is good media coverage for his book to appear and thus free marketing. If I compare it to Erik Zabel and Udo Bölts it's a similar story. The both used PED's and confessed when they couldn't be held liable for it anymore. Both are cycling legends in Germany but both didn't get there clean. I think they are cool guys, but they cheated and I don't look up to them any more as much. No matter how many more times Bölts wins the Cape Epic without actually training for it.

I'll be there to comfort you!

Nice! I'll bother the two guys running his shop during his abscence today.

Ja, tongiht's ride cancelled due to lack of friends and group leader 3 being a lazy bloke. I'll go to William's now and pick up my MTB (these fox guys have been slooooow)

pffff, like the third lead man in the que. What an honour Ok, if no one shouts before 16:15 I'll eat pizza tonight isntead!

Admin might only release the Events section again if he does well at the Sani2C himself! :-)

If I get my MTB back today I'll join!

oh, get a life!

So the weather has turned nice again, the soil will be dried again tonight only we will be happy not get all the dust from berry in our faces for a change. Bikes and beer tonigh, 18:30 at the Engen. Your host will be Drankman!

I'm not sure, hey. Is there a user manual?

Stop hijacking! (Unless there's chicks involved. Basic. Simple. Appreciated!)

Depends on the shop. sometimes it might only include a wipe with a cloth.
