I am with you on this!! My most cherished medal. Btw... this one is bigger than the last 2 years - how did they know we would need a big one?

Supporters helped more than they will ever know!!

I just hope my tandem partner does some of the work or I am chucking them off a cliff!! I am hoping to klap 40 to 45mins off last year's time.

No way!!! Thats insane. Wonder if my cousin should get me a kit when they go to the USA next month?? At that price it would be worth it.

Thats how i started on the idt. works brilliantly. almost road bike like

Whats wrong with rolling through?

Found this for what cyclesure covers: Cover includes: All Risks cover to bicycles and accessories based on replacement value. Cover for incidents like theft, hijacking, damage incurred during transit or while training. Cover while participating in international events, national events, provincial events, club events, or time trails. Personal Legal Liability of R1 000 000-00.

from what another hubber taught me - dont touch the screws. somewhere between the shifter and the derailer there is another more simple thing which you rotate that does not need any tools. play with that. (sorry, not good at describing technical parts)

Excuse my ignorance but "ghetto method"?

Oddly it is the usual crowd.... hey, wadda you doing online? my excuse for an evening online is waiting for an email from a new sponsor that i need to reply to.

Gets to me too. Frigging morons At Carnival I was so focused on racing until that moron threw his gu. I then focused on anger management. Actually considered "dropping" a full bottle as I passed that fat () man. Its so unnecessary to do that, one wash and the sticky is gone. There are constantly articles and stats about this. A dried gel is like concrete on tar. Okay, Di CPD is going to skulk back to the kitchen for some more carbo loading and liquids and tv before she gets nafty with litter bugs.

No' date=' just Bright!![/quote'] Okay, but can I define it as AMABRIGHTBLING?? You almost blinded me with that link! Imagine that: a blind graphic destroyer

Sparkly!!

Ali, thanks for the update!

Anyone who feels like sleeping late can join me at Randburg Kwikfit at 8am for a ride (easy ride in prep for the big A). I am off now so call me on 083 505 9673 if you keen on joining. (I am missing my group ride cause I have to drop my car off at Kwikfit. So forming impromptu ride. Join me if ya keen) Di

Lets hope!! Usually a pizza or a wrap at my uncle's house (unless Mommy dearest and myself decide to get takeouts and treat the uncle.) Thanks for reminding me - I need to warn him I dont eat cream or red meat!!

Um, its not a story but this time next week I will have fetched my bike, registered at the Expo and will be hunting food in Cape Town! Whohoo!

True!! But I hear he is suffering today so he cant be too lazy. Just shows the impact of being deceptful (spelling went downhill today)

I too recall reading something about that on thehub and from what i hear the party in question no longer uses that shop.

Dont like hills but count me in!

Trust me, I regret not discovering cycling when down there. okay, I did ride a bit - like the old road from saasveld to map of africa (AMAZING) but nothing hectic. My friends are bugging me again to visit but thanks to all my cycling holidays and my 2 bush trips I cant find time!! Maybe next year I take a week and drive down with BOTH bikes. Yep, I am suddenly homesick now. Coat, bike, leave ......... ah rats! bike at home and I am stuck at work!

Tip from an ex-South Cape person (lived in George for a few years)... Find a trail and ride!! There are so many to play around. I was into hiking then and found that just above George, hidden in the mountains are 5 stunning dams that you dont notice until you stumble upon them. Also... road bike must do: outeniqua pass; mtb must do: montagu pass. I regret not riding those 2 and am planning 2 holidays - 1 road and one mtb!
