Yeah, on second thoughts, nobody's mentioned me. Maybe i should read something into that......

SO basically now we've established that EVERYONE on the Hub is a straight shooter. Which is great. But perhaps we'd do better to post a name and shame list?

What is this crit all about?

I thought that was pretty sharp actually.

Please share?

Yeah, whereat?

Yeah, you've always struck me as the sensitive type! I meant, what was originally said about Cycle Lab that has caused such a stir?

This is all very intriguing. What the hell was said?

I say if it isn't chrome, it isn't on.

Agreed. Buying a 11 year old bike for 10k will probably not be the smartest option. You can get good value for that kind of money with modern products.

The Star this morning reports that Andrew Maclean of Cycle Lab and Fritz Pienaar of Fritz Pienaar cycles are in deep s**t for participating in price fixing and are under investigation by the Competitions Commission. Summons have been issued against those two but minutes of meetings in the SAPS possession show many other retailers were involved. Seems we've been had boys and girls.

Guys and girls, Check out the article on www.iol.co.za Please be extremely careful if you ride in that part of the world.

Listen, don't try to correct your setup yourself. Rather take your bike to any decent bike shop and they'll set you up professionally. I had huge shoulder pain until i established that in fact my bike frame was too small for me. Don't discount this possibility either.

I've been told by a few ladies to F off in my time. It was usually because I was holding onto their legs and begging them not to leave...

Fanie, apply methiolate at your peril. Works like a charm but "stings like hell" is the understatement of the century. Methiolate is what they give you for blisters in the army. Teaches you not to moan about blisters!!!

Hello? Anyone out there? Route profile?

Anyone got a route profile?

I live about 400m from one of the coffee stations. This'll be the most awesome training ride ever.

It's packed full of wholesome creatine. There's a stimulant free version too which apparently works, but not quite as effectively. Personally, i won't touch stimulants. Could ruin my chances in Tour de France next year.

Never been ashamed. I look AWESOME in spandex...

Surely if cyclists are blocking the rode, a simple press on the hooter is sufficient to get them out of the way. The trouble in SA is that when we drive, if someone breaks our momentum, we get the hell in - even if we're doing 100 in a 60 zone. The reality is that cyclists should stay in the yellow line, but sometimes they don't. Hubbers aren't traffic police that can enforce the behaviour. Furthermore, the yellow lane keeps you safe from everyone except taxis (certainly true in JHB). So - my conclusion of this fairly pointless post is, as Hubbers, set the example on your bike, and in your car.

Brian - your missus is not good to you man. Say "NO" to abuse!

Second is first of the losers!!! Sorry man - just taking the piss. Except that Mampara's right. Real men have hair!!!!!

If i had to train like those guys, i'd also take Bolivian Marching Powder. Just float up the hills...
