  1. I ain't no photographer, but this scene just appealed to me...and I sure as hell wouldn't mind having a shack with this view! Taken on a Mokia N97.
  2. Time for Monday...
  3. RIGHT. Now I am thoroughly confused! The End - end. And BTW, I think you meant 'endure' not 'endear'. Unless you are one of them doods who is endeared to 'pain and suffering'.
  4. The trail has been cleared of all the over friendly Lantana weed, and the few trees that blew over in last weekends storm. :clap: Please ride the new (rocky) switchback trail! You will find it on the left as you come out of the exit from the base of the technical rockgarden. It climbs UP the grass slope above the rocky jeep track, and eventually exits at the top of (the same) rocky jeep track. Invite your friends. Please remember that there is an Honesty Box located at the Specialized Concept Shop, Link Hills Center. The moneys are used towards maintaining existing and building new trail. As an aside: If you should witness any illegal dumping taking place, please note the vehicle registration, make and/or any other markings as well as the date and time. Please PM this information to The Drongo. (Please consider your health and safety and do not confront the perpetrators). The Landowners have been grateful for information sent them to date. Remember: Always wear a helmet.
  5. Chap. That's a fairly long ride. Mostly tar. Better to drive and enjoy the full offroad thing.
  6. FSA K Force. Lose the barends. (if you have to Easton EC90)
  7. Go to settings. You can turn that on or off.
  8. Cool. One day spent with the taxis and trucks and you will be back at Clearwater daily. Visit the Coffee farm. And the Banana Pancake place. And the Custom Blades shop.
  9. Cool.
  10. Oh. Well that won't work then. Try the N2. It runs North South. Can't miss it. Or better still. Leave the skinny tyre thing at home, and take the knobbly tyred thing !
  11. Ta.
  12. Nope. It's usually in my pocket!
  13. Yep. I'm watching WHO! Done that. I see there is a powersaving setting. You have to BUY E/Pro - sneaky buggers! Audio Coach - DISABLED ! Peptalk - DISABLED ! (If I needed a coach, I would strap her on !) What is the COUNTDOWN setting for?
  14. Shoosh!
  15. How do I avoid all the "social network" crap? All I want to do is connect with my route, not a pack of sociopath PDF files..... And how do I activate that "power saver" thingy on a Galaxy SII? This thing chows battery like I chow popcorn !
  16. There you go. Typical Hub topic. Circular argument.
  17. You fit those to the rim how ? !
  18. Only because your mate Gnarly rides Bianchi.
  19. Seriously, Rudi-h?
  20. Only if they are Carbone dude, and you drop them onto a bridge.
  21. Correct. But speak to Andre first. If you don't do it right (read Hamhanded) you can damage the joint, and then it will pop out at ease, as it pleases in future.
  22. Get hold of Andre. Rush Sports 033 346 2300 tech@rushsports.co.za
  23. Was it on that 'technical' rocky bump thing they put in to test 29er 'rolling resistance? Shame. Sorry man. Practice - Giba KZN is calling when you are down "by die see".
  24. Oh. Well that settles it then. Dammit! Just when i started building up another 26er. Although when I rode yesterday morning I was 2 minutes slower than Monday, on the same bike. Now I am confused...
  25. Nope son. Once it is out in The Interwebs, it's there for good. Basically. You're screwed. 1. Think 2. Think again. 3. Type. 4. Think 5. Check spelling and grammar. 6. Think. 7. Hit send. Just better hope Your Directors are only good at Golf, and need their PA's to get on the Interwebs. If that's the case, start buying some flowers for PA's.
