  5. sweet ride. bike looks awesome. happy miles and safe riding for the little man.
  6. yes we did. we were only 11 registered members..so our full team. that's the way I figured they checked.
  7. my 1st DC. we only had 11 riders all different strength levels. we managed to keep it together until just b4 DREW where we all got split up. At one stage i was riding alone for like 10km until i caught some team mates on the 3 nasty hills, they sure burnt. felt sorry for the guys walking. I got 4 members just before the finish and because we missed our 8 hr mark decided to go for the CHARLES MILNER. We waited another 20 minutes for the rest of the pack to arrive. we crossed the line at 840 with a flat tyre and minus a chain. What an awesome event. well organised with excellent support and marshalls. thank you Coronation. enjoy every single moment.

    that just brought back nightmares. it was scary lol!
  11. gonna ask a real dumb question here: how do u know if your BB bearings are stuffed?? play in the cranks or does the cranks turn over slowly/ with resistance? or some sort of grinding noise? i have been riding my road bike for about 5 years avg 2000km a year. i have never replaced or serviced the BB. 105's. regards
  12. hi, cpt armpies. rondebosch doesnt stock it. lol. @ryinc only the normal S5 has ant+ not the mini. i called my LBS they have a sigma belt. gonna check it out. else i will maybe settle for the Runtastic belt. thanks for the replies.
  13. nope they don't stock em. tx
  14. where can one buy a wahoo heart rate belt? in CT?
  15. thanks for the replies. i just got the S5 mini it has bluetooth 4 LE. i always use strava. was thinking of getting a garmin 510. but that means spending another R4500. i also always take my fone with. So i was comparing what the garmin gives me compared to what strava offers, stats wise. i already have a Sigma ROX 9 on the bike which works great with heartrate. just wanna know the pros and cons...... so i was just toying with the idea of getting the belt for strava...... regards
  16. hi, anyone out there using strava on their smart phones linked with a heartrate belt. ( no garmin) what type of heartrate belt u using? is it BLE= bluetooth low energy or Ant+. specificall interested in BLE. got the new S5 mini. it has BLE so thinking of getting the belt. thanks
  17. WOO SAA its gone.i will be back tomorrow am. lol. didnt want to waste my time at the cop shop. thats why i came to the great place "THE HUBSA".
  18. So this morning in traffic single lane but wide enough for 2 cars, this bakkie is standing stationery behind the other cars in peak traffic. He then decides to go left, overtaking the other stationery cars, there was also a vehicle parked on the left in front of us. I was approaching on the left hand side at about 35km/h/. i shout "watch" and manage to squeeze between the bakkie and pavement. The bakkie then pulls alongside me and ask why i shouted. he then swore at me " my p*@s" and told me that he did see me. After he swore me i returned the gesture with a "f... u" he then threaten that he will knock me off my bike. i took a pic of the bakkie and reg no. do i report it or just let it slide and move on....
  19. ramadhaan(the fast) was fast. I hope I lost the kilo's I need to loose so that I can climb quiker. I need to train for my first DC...lol
  20. my SID came with the same remote lock out. it broke after the 3rd ride. if u ask me its not a good design. bought a different one and works way better. think it costed about R500. will post a pic when i find one. good luck.
  21. thanks gonna try these options and c what happens.
  22. hi, need some help i was in tokai on level 5 about to descend. i felt that my wheels were a bit too hard and deflated them a bit. on the way down the rear wheel went soft that i even kinked the rim slightly. i stopped and tried to bomb the wheel. the air kept on leaking. i then removed wheel and fitted tube and got home. back at home i opened wheel up removed tube added sealant( i noticed when i opened tyre on mountain there was very little sealant in) and pumped wheel up. i had to inflate almost maximum before it stopped leaking. i left it overnight and it retained the pressure. next day i deflated till 2 bars and went for a ride. 5km from home i started loosing air again, between tyre and rim. i quikly inflated at garage and it held for the trip to tokai and back home. ( 54km) question 1: do i remove tyre and try an straighten the kink. could this cause the leak? 2: could the old sealant that hardened between tyre and rim cause a leak? should i remove tyre clean it up nicely and refit? ps i fitted them tyres about 3 years ago and never had any troubles. thanks Seraaj
  23. saw this old red mazda ( egi shape like in the old continental advert) about 630 ish in simons. he came out the side road close to station and went towards smits direction. funny thing is after passing the golf course he passed us again..... could be someone from the area.... im thinking.
