  1. ? Campie was an American thing, they don’t like equipment that sounds like a pasta dish…😂
  2. Question: Should Bike Hubbers that incorrectly spell Campagnolo be banned for a period of 31 days? 🤓🤭✍️….
  3. So… the great debate, four wheels vs two wheels. Who will survive on the same piece of real estate? Sharing common space with strangers will no doubt bring out our differences. We as society need to address that neither own the space. I have been guilty in 4 wheel mode and have paid my fines to Cyril ‘I’m a poser”. So maybe we need cops on bikes, the E-bike PD…? They could also help with bike crime and monitoring roads that cyclist use and enforce traffic safety regulations. Eish… but with load shedding, not sure how many riders (officers) would pitch up to work? 😂😂😂
  4. Watching them come to Paris is epic! The international vibe is amazing! Be prepared for 6 deep crowds but insane speeds on cobbles. The cameras do not give you an accurate reading on how fast they are going! The final lap is motorbike speeds! I was in awe…. Well worth it, bucket list ticked. ✅ Next is the Giro or the Worlds.* * based on currency exchange and I need to do this honey….😂😂😂
  5. Different colour… maybe this what happens when a raspberry crashes into a mango… you get a manberry.🤓 Enjoy the ride….
  6. .. I’ve noted. Will remember this when one of your helmets come up for sale! 😂😂😂!
  7. I’d do a “lay-by deposit anyday! 🤭
  8. My theory: Some inner pads are coated with an anti bacterial compound and it could be that at some higher temps ( generated by mostly head heat) it could irritate the skin. I’ve had something similar, but a sweatband worked a charm. Try that before you go the “BH” medical route! Hope you come right dude.
  9. CSA needs to pull finger… start by updating that poor website, and showing us the books for the 2023 season…
  10. That’s it.. time we take a stand! Let’s all hire Mr Nel as our representative! Let’s take this to human cycles high court! 🤭
  11. If this is a CSA race…why is gravel not listed as an official discipline on the website? Come on.. it’s 2024.
  12. ..ummmm, I’m feeling lucky, 🤔if he declines…. Im with Capitec BTW. 🤭
  13. …an e-bike will be my retirement machine for those last rides. I’ll also wait till we go hydrogen. 🤭. I see those tanks already outside future bicycle service centres. Don’t say I didn’t warn… LOL.
  14. You moto -bicycles are the black sheep it seems..LOL.
  15. I see on the cycling SA website that Gravel is still not a listed discipline? This was the same case as last year. I think with the money they take, an updated website should be key in attracting new members.

    The Classics

    Guys are going to hurt, European weather is pretty rough right now… not sure if all will give this a hard go or skip it for fear of falling sick?. I’m keen to see the new season unfold. 👍🏻
  17. …. Love seeing the bike community in full bloom! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
  18. Good grief.. this is not local small business, this sounds like a syndicate, who move stock outside our borders. it smells of an inside job, a huge shipment of phones worth millions was once hit ( huge truck) a few years back and I spoke to the guys who Handle the security, it was found that these guys do everything… from phones to bikes etc. All items are kept stored in safe haven secure estates and shipped to new owners. Our wonderful police need to step up and start following leads that go beyond SA!
  19. The Vecnum FreeQence has both adjustments for positive and negative up/down with around 40mm travel. Made in Germany so it’s pricey but what a piece of kit. Rumour has it, it’s on my bikes bucket list.😃🤭
  20. Okay thanks Rob….✅😃
  21. The Rac X thermofoils dual compound are not only super light weight but good on a wet rim. DM for details.
  22. Let’s split it… you want bars or rotors?
  23. Robs left the building? 🤔 I say we give him 117 minutes?🤭
  24. Well if your post said thank you.. gentlemen first.🤓🤭
