  1. Wow... But let's not jump to conclusions. Might have had a saddle sore...
  2. Aah good point. Well what I carry goes into a small water bottle.
  3. Those are clinchers.
  4. A tube.
  5. I keep my stuff in a small water bottle. Don't like having stuff in my back pockets and it pulls your top down so only carry my cell in my back pocket.
  6. Looked like a heart attack. Cycled past as the fire brigade were on the scene and didn't want to be a nuisance. Hope he is alright.
  7. Are you relaxed when on the bike. Try relax your back.
  8. I know of more than 5 cyclists who cycle that route everyday to get to work. She should have asked people who actually ride and live in that area. And what about the people who ride that road when training. The group I train with are well over 10...
  9. Grease your pedals. Remove them and grease the threads.
  10. I have a pair of shimano 105 pedals with cleats that you can take for 200 rand exc postage. Used for 6 months.
  11. I trust Mark at Crown Cycles. But my wheel wasn't a lefty.
  12. Handbags in the sunset. Funny how some brand ambassadors come out and speak here. Bad PR seems to be what USN is the best at. USN is basically edging us on. (Walk away and this thread would have died a few days ago and we would have forgotten about the whole saga). Not sure I will be forgetting this anytime soon the way USN's customers have been treated. I have a tub of USN muscle fuel in my room, not sure I want it anymore but before this whole saga I was a frequent USN user.
  13. Ahem ..."I contacted him on numerous occasions on social media, and he replied very quickly during the holiday season."https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/111476-momsen-29er/?do=findComment&comment=1558333
  14. Too busy on that dating thread
  15. Pretty obvious. Nobody likes it when people ask questions publicly.
  16. The ppa would just throw a carpet over the hole and hope for the best. I say a couple of planks might be a better option.
  17. Going past building sites (sometimes I turn around as do that stretch of road a few times).
  18. Ride in the gutter and they squeez past you as the cars don't have to worry about the oncoming traffic. I am traffic and cars must slow down for me. If it's a wide road the cars don't have to go into the oncoming lane but should be able to see me.
  19. Jens Voigt once entered a triathlon. Confused about the rules he rode three 100 mile time trials back-to-back, breaking the course record.
  20. Would riding a bit further inwards help? I tend to own my bit of road. When people want to overtake they have to come into the oncoming lane. People tend to be more careful I find.
  21. Wow, some cars passed way too close.
  22. I rode OKW yesterday + - 7:10 am. Cars do whizz up their only having to brake further up the road. I do feel much safer having my Magic Shine rear light on. People tend to give me more space but on blind corners I know it's still a possibility.
  23. Will definitely watch this when home or on my phone. Thanks. The link:
