  1. Rockshox SID 120mm How my ride changed after that investment! Have a recon with a tapered steerer for sale EDIT: Cheap
  2. Was driving to 4ways early last week through harties as I live a bit out of civilisation. I passed a number of roadies who were driving in a group (max 10) who were riding side by side and were blocking traffic from passing them as it was a narrow road (same road as van gaalens) No wonder some motorists hate us and paint us all with the same brush. I should have pulled the middle finger, but i showed some constraint! Oh yeah, I did spot some white lycra!
  3. What size is a unicycle wheel?
  4. Any suggestions are welcome, it's still in the planning stages.
  5. Hi all, I'm planning a 100km gravel road training ride at the end of the month in prep for the TransKaroo Proposed date is 28 January and the idea is for a drop off and a 100km return ride to Groot Marico following a valley in which the marico river runs. For the Sunday morning there is apparently a nice 20km loop around the dam. I know a few locals there, so will also look for accommodation deals for those interested. PM if you are keen. Neil
  6. Cape Union Mart sells a mustard bath salt! (about 70 bucks for a relatively big tub) Smells great and burns like hell, but awesome stuff!
  7. Usually up at 04:30 to ride before work! Never on weekends though! they are designed for "resting"
  8. I live and work at Sun City, planning an afternoon ride as I dont feel like being here too late. Will send PM
  9. 2nd day back at the office and I drop in for a visit to find this! The whole rant and rave reminds me of a thread started by the editor of Tread Magazine: DIRT ROADIES! hahahah
  10. I always use pliers!! Learnt the hard way with my bomb
  11. Hope they will be fine! Thanks for keeping us informed!
  12. ...and the spineless f*er drives away!!
  13. Looks like a low calorie butter sauce with those prawns
  14. Eish..... The forces of ying and yang have been working hard! I train like hell in the morning, then carbo load (beer up) in large quantities every night! What a balls up, gained 3 kgs and feeling it!

  17. I purchased the above mentioned frame for reasonable price and would like to know what fellow hubbers think of my choice as I did not do a lot of research, but what I read seemed ok. Cheers,

    Aliens! has to be!
  19. I am thinking about doing the trans karoo. I can comfortably do 50km mtb riding at the moment, but am wondering what sort of push would be needed to get ready for 240km in the saddle. So, any hubber "experts" out there who can assist. PS: I might be looking for a team mate as well
  20. Don't need a logical reason! I love it! And yes, "money in my pocket" is a myth! I pay the rent for my lbs.
  21. Already been for my 45km mud bath/ride..... now for my 15 minutes
  22. Hell....is this thread still going??
  23. This is as good as it gets should have been a sailor! EDIT: posts edited
  24. I will agree with you on that too! Perhaps I and others were a bit too harsh! So... let me retract the comments from my harsh post as it was over the top and not what I stand for! Let me say: "Apologies for the F off back the Alps comment, but admit when you are wrong, and being educated about trespassing with an escort is better than a prosecution or seeing the wrong end of a shot gun! So, please set an example and don't F it up for us who live here"
