  1. Lol for various reasons this doesn't work quite the same for me 😋 I will find a club to ride with more for safety reasons 🤗 I do allot of other activities like diving and hiking with groups.
  2. lol does it give the same feeling as going fast and hard on a single track.
  3. I have not been on a bike in 7 almost 8 years. Obviously, I'm a little older and while not unfit definingly not close to where I use to be. Want to start riding again but how to start . First need to get an MTB I'm thinking of starting with a Ebike just so that I'm able to ride with clubs and keep up but have no experience with them they barely existed when I last went riding. I would like people to share their unpopular opinions on this. The other option is to just get a bike I'm comfortable with and find a club that does beginner, intermediate and so forth rides I'm in Pretoria east . If so, I will look at getting a M dual suspension 29er with a Corbon frame and min XT group set with at Fox shock front and back as this is the bike I had before and loved but also, I have no idea if this is still the correct bike for me to get. I'm a little bit of an anti-social person I'm more comfortable with computers and the idea of joining strangers on a ride fills me with anxiety I have no more connection with the friends I rode with years ago, so this is also a difficult start I don't know where it is safe to ride alone and where not and how to join a group.
  4. The only issue I have with ws bikes is usually specs aren't great for cost, and the tacky colors and decals, seems like bike manufacturers think womens taste stop evolving at the age of 5.
  5. I like cycling, I like taking a holiday, I like cycling on my holidays. I do not just go down for the day hence the accommodation, so not really spending so much money to do a one day race.
  6. First hi to old fiends and new as it has been a while since my last visit. Now to start by complaining. This year the School holidays have changed to be a week later than usual and now they coincide with the Amahova this I guess is great for someone with crib midgets but sucks monkey balls for me... Thought I would get a early start on getting good accommodation, apparently not early enough as all the affordable accommodation is gone. FYI this is the first the other party will hear for my negative experience but did not think the department of education will give a flying .... about my accommodation problems. Rant over.
  7. For the crater Cruise 50km there where 631 finishers, 313 of them did it in over 3hrs this makes the OP a pretty average rider with lots of room for improvement. So taking the same statistic 50% of the riders here will not be surprised it took him 3hrs, as their first 50km probably took much longer to do.
  8. You seem a little to interested in applying cream om Kallis
  9. I bought this deal e-mailed subs@ramsaymedia.co.za on Tuesday with my code and details and have not heard anything back, If you bought the deal how did you claim it and have you gotten any sort of confirmation?

  11. Cool a party to celebrate the expulsion of Malema
  12. makes no sense since you are their loyalist supporter..
  13. had a good laugh but unfortunately it is a urban legend http://www.snopes.com/crime/justice/grannies.asp
  14. For a race that does not offer accommodation this must be the most expensive race in South Africa If you look at competing races the Honda Trophy and Crater Cruise as good examples for stage races with no Accommodation , both you can do for way under R500
  15. n Goeie begryper het n halwe woord nodig
  16. HAHAHAHA taking about the pot calling the kettle black, maybe this won’t happen if there is a actual discussion to be had here why do you want to know is there a article you want to discuss are you doing a survey for ride magazine or did you want to tell us all that you have a ipad .
  17. LOL not quite but don't give up you have 4 guesses left
  18. I don’t really think that you can save a tree since the trees that are used to make paper are specifically planted for that purpose the trees are cut at a specific age. The only thing you are effect supply and demand thus effecting the amount the farmer is getting for the wood. When the price for paper becomes to low the farmer will probably sell the wood to a competing industry like selling the wood to the build beams for underground coal mines. O and I give you 5 guesses what my dad does for a living
  19. I find it pretty cool that it links to a Chinees search engine, and that is pretty much as helpful as this thread....
  20. I am taking that is a personal insult coz by saying that you are basically saying I am a complete idiot But you got the just of what I was saying hence your post Seems allot of these type of complaints on the hub and I do not think that the thread serves any purpose and this is the hub not hellomatt.com
  21. If you post sunglasses using Royal mail postage is the least of you worries a customs agent getting a new pair of shades are far more likely
  22. Strange how that happen one of my friends took his car in for a service and ask them to replace one of the bulbs in the process they cracked the glas they refuse to replace the light so he calmly ask the guy if he knows about hallopeter, Facebook and twitter he very grumpily said he will see what he can do and replaced the light
