  4. Typical male species got a touch of flu/cold AND wait stop the world I need to climb off..... am so sickIt's just a touch of cold you will be ok believe me. Wait my coat has gone No no i have a girlfriend pumping me full of meds and an overprotective mother who has told me to take it easy so nope i am the stubborn one who rode to the race tonight and then got a call from my girlfriend saying i sound like $h!t and if she hears that i raced my balls will be cut off so nope me being stubborn is not gonna work now
  5. for all those that missed out on tasting the energy bars at the crit ask the guys and girls who were there i think joanna was the one that decided to forget about dinner and munch all of mine because she had in her hand the whole time!!!!! Alex took some FiT products for his shop and included were some energy bars so if you want to give them a go they are R12 each!!
  6. ? Good - you'll need a proper warm-up for Jo NOT to beat you ? Oh cr@p' date=' not again . ?[/quote'] Mr Lion i have come down with the flu so riding tonight might be a no no will see how i feel a bit later as to if i will be racing but you can be sure that if i do race i will hold her wheel and make sure i have a bigger kick in the sprint hehehe
  7. Yup Cajees the only people to screw you over and then make it look so good that you walk out smiling and bragging to everyone you meet!!!
  8. Thanks Ian then i will be there at 4h15!!
  9. what do u call early ....so i know to get there b4 the queue starts4pm4:30pm5pm5:30pm i will be there at 5h30!! but if you really feel the need to be there at 4 then go ahead i am sure the dome wont mind a gate guard for an hour and a half
  10. Hi guys and girls just a reminder we will have a limited amount of stock at the crit tonight for tasting and a very limited amount of bars for selling so if you are planning on racing or just popping into the crit to taste the bars Make sure you get there early!!! see you there!!
  11. Kevin if you have to use gels in a club ride then it is really a waste of your time to take them on race day a simple carb drink and maybe an energy bar will be sufficient enough to get you through a club ride unless you are a beginner trying to duke it out with the mclean train and pavlov express racing club rides
  12. contact gavin from FiT he does custom imported louis garneu kit for our club and it is 10times better quality than anything you get here is SA but is cheaper than most south african brands gavin@fitsportslab.comturtlek2009-03-24 02:02:16
  13. Dont use your road shoes or pedals they will never work properly again!!!! ok wait sorry i used mine in my first ever MTB race the magalies monster and i almost died so you might get away with themturtlek2009-03-24 00:39:23
  14. milky if the power meter that you are going to buy will work with a garmin strap then you can have the one i have lying around here i have no use for it so let me know
  15. The thing that makes me cross is that these guys who do push in at small races are just cheating themselves more than other people because not only do they not have the mental ability to stay with the guys in the front they have the attitude of SO WHAT.... It is a typical south african way of thinking just a bit of trivia for all those interested, when Jp pearton has won a race he has not led from the gun he has started mid pack keeping sight of the guys leading and when the time was right he pounced on many unsuspecting prey So to all the side feeders out there if you really want to feel good about yourself and ride a good race try do what Jp does and then see how good you really are!!!
  16. yup m,y anti virus is working overtime still and i dont have drop down menues and i cant go to the last page of the threads unless i page through them individually [}
  17. Harryn give great white a call i had one attached to a hub he needed he doesnt need the rim by the looks of it so try pm him
  18. a good way to check if the carbon is indeed cracked is for you to tap a coin repeatedly over the carbon on either side of the crack and then do the same over the crack if the tone of the tapping changes then it is cracked but if not then it is just clear coat cracking and omnico are very good with thier waranties good luck with your findings!!
  19. Cool stuff
