Drinking more beer than I have in years, I have cut out all wheat, but still eat carbs, just in lesser quantities. So far I am keeping off about 1Kg per month - so far 9 down, who knows when it will stop. I will increase my beer consumption if there is any fear that I might beocme too thin!!

Just a quick note about some guys who went out of their way to bail me out of serious trouble on Saturday. I am not sure of the Epic Sport mechanic there – but he saved the day. To cut a long story short – two of my daughters use different cleats, and I landed up with the wrong pedals on a bike. No big deal except I only found this out when I suggested to my daughter that she does her final warm up prior to the start of the schools XCO challenge at Fountains. After some pleading for help over the loudspeaker system, I was sent in their direction. They firstly offered me an entire SPD Pedal/cleat combination (for free) and then when I suggested that all I needed was the spd cleats they immediately got new ones onto her shoes and had her riding with time to spare. They assured me that it was a pleasure to help someone out and needed no payment. Well I can’t vouch for the shop other than my single experience, but what an absolute revelation to deal with guys whose only thoughts were on how to get my daughter onto her bike as fast as possible – well done guys. With that attitude I have no doubt your shop will prosper – and if there is anybody in the centurion who needs something, please be my proxy and spend some money with them!!

Specialized Camber Comp 29er Carbon - the day after my old faithful decide to break a leg on me. The only thing keeping the rear stay there was the welding.

Specialized Camber comp 29er Carbon Coming from a tank (albeit a much loved tank) it is quite a pleasent upgrade...

What distance is the kiddies event? (spelling)

For anyone who is after a deal that is stupidly good - and have decided that the likes of a Specialized Camber Comp 29er Carbon is the bike of their dreams but someone elses budget, give him a call!! I have been a loyal customer since the very first Marin full susser that he brought into the country, and no matter what stupid requests I have made he has stepped up to the plate. This stupid request was "I would love a 29er, but h ell they are just way to expensive"..today I have the bike of my dreams lurking on the back of my car, and I am dying to get home and have some fun!! Eish, I am a happy old bullet

Rehydrate - I am not sure if it makes a difference or just forces me to drink more, but I seldom cramp with it and generally cramp without it.
