I was not referring to going over bars, I was referring to the front washing out in sand

Only danger is that if you are a road or track motorcyclist you tend to grab a serious handful on the right lever. In a panic situation on an MTB you would do the same and you all know what happens then...

The cyclists in the middle of the road are really in the way when I ride through the Cradle at 300, they are inconsiderate *Flame suit already on*

Must be good, Dangle works for them

I think this is the one I have - you can see why I don't carry it in my pocket, it is normally in my backpack

I have a mega big Swiss Army knife, a bit bulky to carry in my pocket though.

Oops, I see I have missed a whole chunk of the race, maybe because DSTV has advertised it so much - NOT

And I suppose we will get 30 minutes highlights on DSTV and that includes 5 minutes before the race, 5 minutes ads and 5 minutes prize giving - a whole 15 minutes of cycling. If I had my way I would cancel DSTV but my GF watches the crap they show. I normally only get it connected for the TDF in July.

This makes me think of drugs in cycling, everyone else is doing it so it is ok as long as it can't be policed at the time. http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/blogs/londonspy/olympic-swimming-gold-winner-admits-using-illegal-kick-101642804.html Are they going to take Camerons medal away in 10 years time when they change the rules in swimming?

+1

Where is Caster Simunye? That whole thing seems to have been swept under a carpet.

I am enjoying the track events

Is there a hottest lady athletes in the 2012 Olympics thread?

Thanks

I missed the track cycling yesterday. Was it on DSTV? Is there any track cycling on DSTV today?

Thanks, I have set it to record.

When is the TT?

The Brit was a bit of a wheelsucker, she didn't deserve the Silver

The whole peleton threw away their chance at any medal. At least the Brits still tried but they had no chance on their own I am glad Vino got it though, well done

How can the peleton expect about 5 Brits to chase down a 20 man breakaway? Maybe they should all have worked together

There is a seperate thread where people can post info on the DSTV coverage of the cycling in the Olympics https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/118628-olympic-cycling-dstv-coverage/page__hl__olympic__fromsearch__1

You mean 2 hours shorter, lol

I am

The 1981 Porsche I used to own did about 20L/100km on the track

My Golf has an 1800 injection (old K jetronic type, 1983) motor bored and stroked to 2L, it has a cam and some work to the head as well as a K&N air filter and performance exhaust. I am not an economical driver but I get 10L/100km
