Who is riding?

Frail, all sorted for Durban wheels etc. Toni at Republic is going to oblige.whatever time. You just arrive. Tyres sorted. Hope to meet you along the way. Sterkte!

How is it going Frail. Hope to ride with you in the morning. Weather looks good.

Ah, fellow traveller. There is a guy, Grant Freeme at Touring SA google) who sells these for touring. I think I have a post post mount fitting for a rack lying about. Will check this evening. You are welcome to the whole unit for zip.

Cool. I will be around. See you there or abouts. (I am the oke with the limp)

i can try and have a look for you. I know zip about bait boats but am in the fishing game.

Yes, this is also one of the reasons Frail is riding up. Leave again for Cape Town after the Tour d'Urban. Madness!!

I would certainly suggest the ride along the Beach Front. It will be slow but you will get plenty of mileage from the public.. I would suggest, Esplanade to Ushaka, (meet up with casual riders???) and then the slow 3.5km flatride to Moses Mabida along the beach front......

Come on guys and girls, lets all try and meet FRAIL along the way. Do our Saturday ride in a bunch into Durban. I can transport five bikes along the way if needed. Just bring yourselves to pedal. Have a nice Saturday ride for a great reason and have jol along the way?

Any bike is "expensive" in Pondoland. In high demand.

Would be wary of this route on a road bike though...... I think it best via OFS?

Qumbu, don't do it Frail.

I will meet you halfway. Will try and bring some mates.

I hope to be at Double Mouth over Easter and will have my bike. Don't know of any trails in that area but I am sure to find some place to ride.

Hi FRAIL Respect! GREAT RESPECT!! Have just done the route via Free State and that is *** as well. There is no shoulder in places and because it is flat, the lorries can get up to very high speeds and the tail starts wagging the dog. But I guess you know all about the truck factor. I definitely would NOT do the Transkei!!!!!! (We need you alive) Just my 2c.

Too little clearance and too short at the back? IMHO

Yes, and if the seller takes two weeks to reply to your four replies and calls you a d...s then what. This Hub is not what it should be. Too many "iffy" sellers persist. If you did not buy because of *** service are you supposed to rate a seller although you never purchased anything because it looked dodge?

Still happening to me . The flipping d....s!

Toni Pedro at Republic.

Giving this one a miss. Not due to date change but because of the difficulty in entering on-line and the filth the day of the start. Put it all together and the package does not look good (and I stay in Durban) Ok, let's hear it from the do-gooders!

Terrible. Think you are done for....hope not. I think I am ALSO in the process of a hoax via the Hub. Cash paid, tracking slip "lost" etc. Guess we will have to wait for all the Holy Joe's to say it could be worse, etc, etc

Thanks. So is the seller and he will bring them down with him. All sorted. Obliged for the kind offer.

I am looking for transport for a 26" wheelset from Craighall to Durban. In return I can offer cash or tickets to an entertainment area for the family? Thanks

Also have a largish one with velcro on the bike and a smaller one on elastic velcro around my arm. Get the stream and not mist. I tried the mist whilst riding and it is a def no go! Stream allows you to use it while still on the bike - not at a fast speed though! Just at the ready in case of something looming ahead. I also think if you grab something the perps "may" not try anything - my false security.

lets wait for the feedback. I detest "iffy" sellers and communication is piss poor. It should not happen like this. Not saying this bloke is an "iffy" seller but he should communicate regardless of how busy he is. Honour is paramount! I am pi.....ed off with some of the poor transactions I read about.
