  1. Is cleaning the pistons with brake fluid the best way to keep them lubed?
  2. Cut him loose !
  3. I've got life cover but it also includes disability cover, terminal illness etc. so the ad makes perfect sense. Well perhaps to those of us who acually take a moment to think about it.
  4. If you were at the fenceline close to Unisa then I think you were riding Fountains, if thats the case then the trail direction is counter clockwise.
  5. If a recall correctly, did you not wave at the cameraman before going a over t ?
  6. .... you've lost focus on the issue at hand and are looking to blame someone, something anything.
  7. Why would the police give you that infomation, assuming you are not directly related?
  8. Cool, can you PM me your address so I can send a mate around to have a look at it.
  9. Taxi drivers by nature are erratic and this makes their road manner predicable. What scares me more is the 4x4 driver barging through traffic, BMW drivers or like yesterday a woman on her mobile while driving down Lynnwood Rd with a child on her lap.
  10. Nige, How many sections do they want you to resurface, because you would struggle to get a better value material than a G6. You could stabalise the insitu material with cement or lime but its all very labour intensive. If they do this to all the world cup tracks then Danny Harts wet run will go down as legendary. Having riden cascades this year it would be a shame to make it into a bmx track !
  11. Road or mtb?
  12. Have you checked that its not the headset thats loose? Rock the bike and forth with the front brakes locked and you should be able to identify where the 'play' is.
  13. Good news. I often struggle to understand the sentencing in the legal system, 8years for bike jacking but a suspended sentence for the cougar who hired 2 hitmen to off a ex lover?
  14. Don't grab a handfull of brake - I use one finger braking & speed is your friend. There's probably nothing wrong with your setup,I'd guess that you going to slow. Brake before the turn and not in it if possible.If its sweeping switchbacks then its outside pedal and inside hand pushing down. I dont think there can be hard & fast rules but if its really techy, steep and rocky then you need to shift your pedals from outside to flat to avoid pedal strike.

    Great chune by the Foo Fighters
  16. I don't need google to decide if a responce is acceptable or not. But here's one for you, google pendulum and see if you can join the dots.
  17. How is that reply rude? Go and #uck yourself we aren't taking the shorts back - now thats rude !
  18. I dont use my padded bike bag anymore, my bikes have been damaged by other baggage been thrown onto the bike bag. I now use a cardboard box from your LBC. Remove handlebars,peddals and rear derailer.Deflate tyres but not fork or shock. Then ask your shop for fork spacers and use them for the forks and swingarm. This will prevent any mishaps when your bike is a the bottom of the pile. Then what I do is put all my riding gear (clothes, lid, camelback)in between the frame in the box. Duct tape shut and away ya go.
  19. Thanks, I've called them but it seems they are no longer agents.
  20. Does anyone know the details of a Marin agent in South Africa.
  21. What does he charge for a fork service?
  22. His opening twitter line sets the tone for the communication, and thats the consumers fault. He must take responsibilty for not checking his slip. Dont get me wrong this does not absolve the retailer from ofering him a refund - which he did. But if you cant workout a 20% discount then you probably dont deserve it!
  23. Two things , firstly if you have two items @ 20% discount most people would do the maths in your head and know how much you should pay at the tills. Lastley if I were the owner and got a tweet like yours I'd also make it difficult for you get a refund- that will teach you for acting the bollox !
  24. Great documentary, a must see if you are a Pearl Jam / or music fan. Some really awesome footage. But it’s also a look at the how all the 'alternative' bands influenced each other during that time. I've seen them live a handfull of times but this movie had me going and ticked all the boxes.
  25. At the moment Soundgarden - Burden in my hand. I know its from back in the day but after whatching Pearl Jam 20 documentary the other night, it just reinforced what quality rock music was produced around the 90's.
