  1. Any marathon entries going spare? Was convinced I had entered but must have dreamed it - aargh! Will pay in rands or beer
  2. Deepest condolences to Cherise, family and friends. What a tragic and senseless loss of a serious talent and a great ambassador for the sport.
  3. A short while ago I bashed my Crank Bros Candy pedal on a rock, damaging the spring and housing. My wife took it to a well known bike shop in the Design Quarter, Fourways (!) to find out if it was fixable. They told her it wasn't possible to fix but they could sell her a replacement for R1800. I smelt a rat and approached the distributors, Bicicletta, who said sure they can fix it - R140 later I had it back, good as new. Perhaps it's too much to ask, but I expect my bike shop to also give good advice, not just shift the goods. And well done Shamus and others at Bicicletta. Distributors are often overlooked but they will go the extra mile for the reputation of their products, whereas (some) bike shops are more interested in today's sale.
