  1. Just don't make Slave laugh.
  2. But its Pink !!!
  3. LOCTITE? 380 is a rubber toughened adhesive with increased flexibility and peel strength along with enhanced resistance to shock. http://tds.loctite.com/tds5/docs/380-EN.PDF
  4. Sounds good I will steer but you will have to do all the pedalling.
  5. Hey Kurt, get better soon. How about this for a plan, you lend me an leg and I will lend you an arm, we will make a good team. So are you riding the crit with one arm tomorrow?
  6. I am here, I saw Trubie at Cyclelab this morning, from there we went to see the Doc to have the bandages, stitches (staples actually) and splint removed. Doc is happy with the way I have healed but the depressing news is he doesn't want me to start riding again at least until I have seen a physio next week. Seems the ligament damage was worse than I thought and it can take up to 6 weeks to heal properly. So I am not a happy chappy right now and I agree it is easy to say there is always next year but when you have put so much effort into your training for a specific event just to have it all thrown out the window it is not cool. Also it is my first year in a new age category so was hoping to do well.
  7. Suggest you make it a different night to the Delta Park race you might get guys wanting to do both. Thursday is probably best.
  8. I sense a conglomerate coming here, Fournos in C.T. and CWC in JHB.
  9. Condolences to the family and thanks to those that tried to assist.
  10. Is it safe to lean it against the garage door? Nice bike by the way.
  11. Garmin, track at impact (this is on a long downhill). Motorbike track hand drawn in red.
  12. Yeah, bunch of woosies, I will come park my broken bianchi outside one day next week, hobble in and have a grappa with you.
  13. Thanks Thug , I had frisco instant cr@p coffee and rusk, still waiting to see if they bring me brekkies.
  14. reminds me of a 2012 type scenario.
  15. Thanks for the well wishes everybody, sitting in hospital as bored as can be, hope to go home this morning. Leg will be in a splint thing for 2 weeks, both ankles are swollen and my ass has no skin and is bruised which is k@k because I can't turn over becaue of my leg and the drain etc. as Sonic said but should be able to get back on the bike soon. I was coming down Witkoppen road from Cedar towards Kingfisher, I was doing about 50km/h. A young guy on a motorbike coming from the opposite direction didn't see me and turned right and basically t-boned me. I had nowhere to go because there was a bakkie waiting to pull off from the stop street. The impact with the motorbike on my knee did most of the damage and then I apparently flew over the bonnet of the bakkie and landed on the kerb about 5m away. Lay there for a few secs to check if everything worked but was then able to get up. Really nice lady in the bakkie brought me to the hospital and waited until my son (Sonic) got here. Really bad timing training wise, I was just peaking my base training for SA's and this was my last long week. I see Slave also became a casualty this week but seems to have fared worse than me. Hope you recover quickly Slavey.
  16. Cyclesure, service is excellent.
  17. 'Fraid so, it's worth buying a few tools, saves a lot of hassle and they aren't that expensive. Cassette replacement is really easy.
  18. You need 2 tools, first is a chain whip to stop the cassette from turning and the second is a locking ring spanner which looks a bit like a socket but fits into the splines on the cassette locking ring. Do you have these?
  19. I think we should contribute for the muffins as well. You and your family are being generous enough as it is. Can we do like last time and put out a donation tin, any excess can go to FORA.
  20. Her Royal Highness is going to have to invest in a bigger swimming pool at this rate. Should be good fun, looking forward to it.
  21. Ok, IanJ and Sonic are in and I ain't pushing anyone up the hill (note cool wink)
  22. Oops sorry... fixed now.
  23. That r.i.p.29er? now i'LL PAY GOOD MONEY TO SEE THAT. GT The S.I.R. 29 The ridget? Buy the way' date=' those shoes I picked up from you are the best thing since cheese...[/quote'] Now I can put a face to the name I am with jmaccelari, if Ianj is doing some pushing I am definitely there. Please don't move this to the 16 th. we have a brunch with great grandma. Ok let me get this straight, one of you rode 26,000 km in 24hr last weekend and the other 2 rode from Sani to the Himalayas and back via the Alps or something and you want me to do the pushing. I think not. Actually, last one to the top is a Woosie . IanJ2009-12-08 15:24:36
