  1. Rumor has it that they never identified him but rather one of his mates/acquaintances ratted him out for a 10 000 ZA rondt reward ...
  2. Good mielies mate! Have a good one
  3. Not been feeling so lekker the last few days so no riding ... cabin fever got the better of me so I just ambled the suburbs on the Kamikaze fixed gear, brakeless machine!
  4. Comes back to me like a bad dream [emoji35]
  5. Just be very careful of the speed 'ripples' on the R82 at the intersection where you turn left towards Lapeng/Daleside!
  6. There was that time I had a go with this, clearly ahead of its time... was a load of crap IMHO Might as well just ride a mountain bike if you need that but just my opinion again, I'm sure they'll sell like hot cakes anyway
  7. Repurposed mine as a rigid single speed and fitted 27.5 wheels, an absolute joy to ride [emoji41]
  8. 'the Impey defence' as GrootLem calls it [emoji41]
  9. Most of that in the rain slowly wears one down [emoji26]
  10. Nice seeing you guys out, thanks to the guy shouting some encouragement when I was going the opposite direction on my own near the circus. Was getting a bit miserable ...
  11. I wonder if we'll ever be privy to the final resolution of this thread, the habits of dogs, cats and their owners notwithstanding ...
  12. Not at my house ... it would say 'where are you mate!' [emoji2959]
  13. Will see how it goes .... door to door within an hour or so should be worth a few shekels?
  14. I have seen the movie but won't be doing any of those 'tricks' [emoji848] My grandson took this picture yesterday [emoji41]
  15. Starting up something doing what I enjoy and possibly helping you at the same time …. offering bicycle messenger service for companies as well as private individuals to move documents and small items within the greater Alberton area. - need a document or small article collected from you and delivered or collected from someone else and brought to you no problem - you or the kids forgot your lunch/something else at home, I can get it to you/them - need to collect or deliver something from or to your 'ex' but don't want to see them or talk to them I'll do it on your behalf [emoji6] - If it fits in a normal backpack I'll take it, as long as it's legal of course! Quick and easy, just a phonecall or WhatsApp, no traffic or parking issues and easy payment! Please see the attached short pamphlet for further info, don't hesitate to call if you need to know anything else. *Note - any suggestions from hubbers regarding how I've structured it, pricing, payment options etc. would be appreciated. Keeping in mind I'd like to keep it relatively simple if possible ... Not looking to start a company and stuff like that [emoji6]
  16. It's a Gios farm gate of a frame (not 'compact') so cut down should not be a problem [emoji16] Will PM you
  17. Busy doing a 'resto-mod' road bike build for a local Christian Charity. They have provided a lot of the parts and I have put together what I have available. The wheels they provided are old Campag but the groupset is Shimano, need a rear wheel not fussed what or how old. Also need a 27.2 seatpost and clamp to go with it, again condition and type irrelevant as long as it works Would appreciate any help with this please, am in the Alberton area ....
  18. Not a compact this time but #MfM think I've torn my 'poepstring' [emoji2959]
  19. Started up a bike messenger service to keep busy while doing something I enjoy. Had this Giant Seek 'commuter' frame just lying around [emoji41] Used it as a gravel grinder for a while but never liked it for some reason, some narrow bars, flat pedals and 28mm slick tyres setup tubeless and it's a hoot riding it through traffic ...
  20. Sounds good mate, was just going on this I saw on FB recently ....
