Is the Pope Catholic? Do bears pooh in the woods? Yip they are the dogs bol..........! Have both 5's and 7's, heard ultimates/carbons are even better, get them if you can!

Heard that oke who speaks afterwards was quite impressed with Cancerella!

Got a reflector from my LBS recently that had a bar clamp that was the perfect size for handlebars. Just modified it to hold the light! They only take those off (or don't mount them) and throw them in the bin!

ewep - acres? ai ai ai - go back to your roadbike!

- auk as Ewep would say! Hopefully now you'll get loads of comments re SRAM S-RAM. I've heard it said both ways so guess as per fandacious it probably doesn't matter they'll know what you want (guess you are going into your LBS to order that Force/X0 groupset?). Be the best move you'll make today!

Is prenounce that moment just before you say something?

Thug - what you want with another MTB? You just 'blinged' up that one of yours! My 2007 X9 shifters and RD are looking mighty fine! Will race them at Walkerville.

Shouldn't you have gone home already? Greetings from Dubai - min temp today 31degrees, max 43 degrees!

Checked it out, nice website. I asked if they can provide the GPS tracks for those. Makes it easier for those of us that have GPS's to follow the routes! I will keep you guys informed!

Enforced transition area - no riding till you were out. It was a roadbike then transition to MTb race! There was also en enforced run into the transition area with your RB and those ballet shoes, very interesting!

Pool-a-ton (o no that's Irish sorry!)

Hey Spidey - Once it falls off it's too late, rather go now!

Ewep - yip it can be a tough time when they are at that age! Hang in there it gets better, sleep whenever you can (even if it's at work!).

Crux - you must excuse Ewep! A bit early for him to think straight, out of bed at the crack of dawn but only awake by 10

Hey MichH - I heard no 6 hour at Phambili (cancelled) but they are having an XC race! See www.rmbc.co.za

DR - And I guess you still won't shave your legs

Zaskar - Then I can only say thanks again! He enjoyed it and we'll be back if they have it again next year, he slept the whole afternoon so I think he may have been a bit tired! Will PM you in 5.

ZASKAR - Yip that's him! Can I please please get a copy of that photo? I guess that's you in the background?

BG - I was there riding but a red Specialized shirt, red specialized road baaik and yes it's true a black Fuji MTB! No carbon fibre fancy schmanzy baaik for me (wouldn't help me to go any faster anyway!).

Red Specialized shirt with a Black tarmac S-works.

Hey TCS crew, as some of you know I have a problem with the way in which some 'senior' riders treat juniors in the bunch. Yesterday in the road race portion of the winter challenge my son rode for a while with one of the TCS riders and another rider and he was quite chuffed that he was allowed to do his bit and it was a very enjoyable ride! Thanks for the help and treating him well! Didn't get a name but he said a tall guy!

Also saw that bike! Very very nice, will definitely stand out in a crowd. Nice meeting you Spidey!

Ai Ai Ai Nellie 'niks serious nie' soon turns into 'empty purse' once you have been out and enjoyed some time in the dirt ask many an MTB'r! But hey may you have many many fun times on it! Be careful, remember speed is your friend.
