The quickest way to the Majick Forest is to eat the majick mushrooms, duuuude.

BRILLIANT!!!!! Then we dont have to see the same ads over and over and over 9 times a day for six months!!!!!

The chances of a dog, or any other living organism for that matter, spotting a fat cat running down any road is non existant. Generally these ANC types get their fat cat arse's chauffered around town with blue lights flashing. And the blue light flashing fat cat officers with rank manning speedtraps will also never be seen running down any road - perhaps standing next to one eating McDonalds and watching the very intersting spectacle called traffic. If these fat cats are ever spotted running down a road in your neighbourhood, please contact me, and I'll run after them to bite them for you...

Ferguson's pretty good too. +1

Glen Vardi or Ponky Firer. My mother is a Radiologist and has been referring to these guys for a LOOOOOOONG time. Firer did my knee, after other quacks told me I'd never ride again, and I've since ridden to Cape Town in a week averageing 250 kms a day. These guys are the best without question.

Cooooooooooooooooooooooooool!

Do you know your blood type in case of emergency? I had mine checked(when I started biking to work) and now have it on a sticker on my helmet, on my bike and on a pendant around my neck. Because you never know...

No-one really cares about triavialities like that. Nuclear reactors in Fukushima. Libya. Yemen. Quakes in China. Quakes in New Zealand. England beating us at the Cricket. I say keep quiet. If that "sh*t haunts you later on", sit down for a few minutes and it'll go away. If you are still feeling terrible, and dont know what to do with your time and remorse, transfer some money to the Japanese quake victims relief fund. Nuff said, I'm off to save the planet. Good luck with your dilemma.

You're just going to get abused now mate. Walk away and learn from this.

Anyway, good up Solomons, you got my support.

Not dissing online at all. By why do it for doing it's sake. If its cheaper locally and immedaitly available, I go local. Even small price differences dont matter if I can get it now, and I support local bike shops, who I need for consumables more often that I buy expensive upgrades.

Listen dude, I have punted Solomons before and gotten mostly abused for it. Online shopping is apparently the way to do it, whether more expensive or not. Best thing - shut up and let them buy their stuff online. Its their money to waste, but great for you. Another tip, Isaac the short black bike mechanic is awesome and tunes and services better than any mechanic I have ever come across. They are all really friendly and helpful there, and I still like going to bikeshops and not rotting behind my computer. Life is not that busy!

+1 Had similar pins and needles in hands and later feet. Had my bike properly set up, some minor changes, no more problems.

Bender is not mortal. He is half cannibal, half android!

Got the Force on mine too. Use the Force, Luke....

Your Mamma!

Have read, responded to and bought from a few people on the Hub over the years. Here's my take on what sellers and buyers say in ad's, and the real meaning behind it: BRAND NEW - only ridden it for 200-300 kms BRAND NEW IN BOX - unwrapped everything from packaging, built up bike and had to strip everything, put everthing back in packaging and sell everything in a hurry, because my wife went ballistic/I bumped the car and cant afford the insurance excess! EXCELLENT CONDITION - good condition GOOD CONDITION - fair condition FAIR CONDITION - pretty k@k and banged up WELL USED - f*cked (SORRY SLOWBEE) GARAGE CLEAROUT - the Missus is giving you hell about all the k@k lying around. TO SWOP - I was stupid and impulsive and bought something without thinking. Now I'm gonna lose bucks by selling, so I am trying to sucker you into giving me your item that fits/is better for my impulse purchase. DONE ABOUT 600 KMS - easily double that, then factor in it hardly ever got any lube or was ever cleaned properly. MY WIFE'S BIKE - I can get away with selling this banged up and scratched bike with k@k components and say it was my wife's, as NO SELF RESPECTING HUBBER would treat his equipment this way. Look out, bargain's can be found here(RARELY) NEGOTIABLE - desperate/need money for nappies. NOT NEGOTIABLE - desperate/need money for nappies. BUYER PAYS POSTAGE - I'm already as low as I can go, otherwise I may as well keep it/miser. BUYER TO COLLECT - rigtingbedonerd. ENTRY LEVEL BIKE WANTED FOR BEGINNER - Cheapskate ENTRY LEVEL BIKE FOR SALE - DAMMIT, this sport is addictive to a tech-junkie, WHY was I such a cheapskate??? CYCLING SHOES FOR SALE - they stink so bad, my wife is filing for divorce if I dont sell them by the end of the week! CYCLING KIT FOR SALE - I did no training this winter, now nothing fits. UNBRANDED CARBON PRODUCTS - no self respecting manufacturer would put their decals on these Chinko factory rejects. ADVICE NEEDED - I am a dumbass. NOT CYCLING RELATED - I cant sell my sh*t in the appropriate forums like Junkmail/Gumtree/Outdoorphoto etc, so let me see if I can find a sucker here. ACCESORIES FOR SALE - random cr@p. PRICE DROP - so Hubbers aren't suckers after all! BUMP - Please by my **** at this inflated price, I need money to pay for my Epic/Sani2C etc entry. PRO TOUR TEAM KITS FOR SALE - cheap and cr@p quality knock-offs I picked up in Thailand on my 7 day budget package holiday(with free arrival cocktail)thinking I was going to quit my suck-job in IT and become the next Andrew Mclean with a chain of cycling stores (or at the very least cover the costs for my holiday! TYRES FOR SALE - bought the wrong size(on sale...) HEART RATE MONITOR FOR SALE - sucker tech junkie here, please buy my old outdated crap, my buddies are laughing at me! Oh and You're welcome to the old sweaty and salt encrusted strap too! Now I'm not saying I have never used any of these.... Please feel free to add. Have a funny day!

Dont be a hater if you cant afford the nice stuff. If dropping a few grand to make your machine nice makes you happy, I'm all for it. A mate of mine recently did a very expensive Bianchi-Super Record build, and the guilt of dropping all that cash got him back on the bike. His weight has come down from a chunky 91 kgs to 80kgs in the space of 3 months. So it can work in reverse

Hey, how about a wanted section in the NEW CLASSIFIEDS? Or is there puposefully not one so it doesn't get skipped over? Just asking.

Dude, no offense, but where were you looking?

Eighties teens. Loved that movie!

American Flyers @22h00 on SABC 3. Classic! I think I have now officially seen it 100 times. The last 99 was before my 15th birthday(1988) Ah memories....
