  1. I don't like them for that reason amongst others and they also just look naff to me ðŸĪŠ Both my gravel bikes have normal road bars. I fitted them to his bike because they just lying here unused
  2. So e-bikers are tjops, Strava riders are tjops ... I just shake my head Idiots everywhere I tell you
  3. The benefits of e-bikes 😜 A lekker long ride with my son ... I still got in a proper ride and he got out 👍
  4. 'Dad can you build me a gravel bike please, this is what I've got' Doesn't want to spend any money off course, or as little as possible ... Challenge accepted!
  5. In fact I would posit that most 'reporters' are merely 'repeaters' ... take the 'Navy shot cannons at the mountain' articles during this week as an example Ek skud maar net my kop
  6. Pretty much ... I can't find any way I can get a team together that fits. In fact I don't even know anyone that has ... anyone here? And as stated next week everyone will have to be cutting members and stuff ... crock of s₮ÂĢt if you ask me
  7. I've had that problem for a long time with an S8 and an A31 ... Given up fighting with them, it's quite erratic in my case, sometimes goes for days with no problem then starts again. At times it can happen 5 6 7 times in a row. Highly irritating to say the least, I have a Vivoactive3 I feel your pain mate!
  8. As an aside when there was a downhill track at Thaba a lot of effort and time was put in and maybe ... MAYBE 10 people used it. @patches was one of those till he moved to the land of the long white cloud.
  9. According to my riding companion this morning TP is a northerner from Leeds so another reason not to be a fan 😜
  10. Need some help to get something non cycling related sent via Paxi/Courier guy to Alberton The elderly person we are speaking to is not able/knowledgeable enough to do it ....
  11. It's not a chore to go out early when you're working on something you love Out with the 'recyclers' this morning 😎
  12. Sorry ou's (JayCee and Oldron) but it takes time to develop that kind of status to me. ... We'll see, like I said I'm happy to be the outlier in this case 😈
  13. Takes a bit more for me but I'm 'older' and grumpy by design 😜
  14. I'd rather wait a while before placing legendary status upon the winner and hailing him as the best thing since sliced bread, like MvdP and WvA anything can happen let's see ... it would appear however by all accounts that I'm alone and I'm ok with that 😎
  15. Am I the only one a little disappointed by the course? Like a high speed gravel short course race Exciting stuff anyway though
  16. Looking for a 170mm MTB crank, anyone got something lying around? If it's 104bcd I've got blades ... can be Shimano or GXP Trying to help a local kid
  17. My 'style guru' and go to guy for all things correct in cycling @Pikey calls it a 'gee-lay' ... keeping in mind he has a penchant for pink bikes and other lady kit ðŸĪŠ
  18. Road or MTB ... there might be different opinions
  19. Probably the same as the blouba11as hanging on a towbar does? Looks the same to me
  20. Philistines, I just shake my head ... the answer is no and if you must just a tube and tyre levers in the smallest possible holder/strap neatly under the seat. If you wanna be all hippie and stuff that's up to you but that doesn't mean it's ok I'll take my hat and my coat
  21. Getting half wheeled around the Boscoe loop by a 'mate' this morning with my sore legs ... no mercy I tell you!
