Trackside

I also got the GR titanium bike last year, since then my mtb and road bikes hardly ever get ridden...

I ordered on 8 Jan, it was dispatched the same day and I collected yesterday. I chose the normal free delivery that comes in via SAPO, the shipping email I receied was from TRAKPAK, they were spot on, the parcel was not even in the SAPO tracking system and TRAKPAK showed that it had arrived.

What happened with him?

R400? I will ride my local trails and have a breckie for 1/4 of the price

I agree that the bottleneck was extremely frustrating and at the wrong moment. BUT the route overall was fantastic

Great event, great route

Hi all, I have two guys that I have been helping to get proper bikes to start participating in events. They both live in Cullinan and commute by bicycle daily to Pretoria to work. The first guy, Lucky, has already participated in the Beast of the East, Down and Dirty, Dullstroom and Sabie. I am very gratefull that Bestmed has contributed to entry fees, transport and accommodation and to Chris for the Felt bike. After the conditions of Dullstroom and Sabie his drivetrain and brake pads are cooked. Can anyone help me with a 10 speed chain, cassette and chainrings? The crank is a Truvativ (not sure about the model) The brakes are Shimano disk brakes. I will also appreciate 26" tyres with decent life left in them. His wheels are tubeless but we can use non-ust tyres if we can get some. The second guy, Mlongise, got a Scott Aspect 40 FOR FREE from a fellow hubber. However the lockout of the Suntour schock is broken and it is stuck in lock position. It is a spring shock and my LBS says to send the shock to Cape Town for repair may end up costing almost as much as a new shock. I saw that CWC sold a shock like that for R500 on the hub recently!!!! Can anyone help with a 26" shock or know someone that may be able to help with repairing the lockout? The bike is fine for commuting but I would like to get him to some events and for that he will need a working shock. Thanks

Read this topic yesterday and got inspired to start commuting again today. Lekker man lekker

My Festina TdF 100 yr edition

Velo rides starts at 5:30 at the Engen on the corner of Atterbury and Hans Strydom (Solomon Mhlangu)

I stopped doing it three years ago, the problems are still the same. Cannot believe such bad organisation is associated with the 94.7 Cycle Challenge. The primary school fundraising race is better organised.

Alles van die beste Koos, hoop jy herstel gou

Yip, the Archer's Edge guys are amazing. I am on their range a number of times each week. DP hit an Inian myna on 85 yards on that range! Do you know that SA had three male archers in the top 8 in December's world champs in Singapore and took gold and silver in the ladies. I have seen a lot of Hoyt archers get converted to Bowtech on their range.

I shoot a Bowtech Insanity CPXL. I use the range at Archer's Edge in Pretoria and the indoor range at Bow Shop. I have shot at distances from 20m to 90m. It is an awesome sport

Yes that was me, at that point our driver was also lost in JBay. Thanks for the friendly offer.
