  1. Oh sheesh dude - must just check if that RD / shifter combo I have is 9 or 10 speed!!!
  2. Dude. Try driving through to Durbs overnight. NEVER. AGAIN. Sheesh. Thought it'd be okay. But the depth perception is thrown for a major whack as soona s you see lights coming towards you. They could be 2lm, or 200m away..
  3. Tank, the pull ratio is NOT just determined by the shifter. It's also determined by the lever rate within the rear derailleur ie the length of the lever that the cable is attached to. 1:1 means that for every mm a cable moves in the sheath, the RD will move 1mm. If you change the lever length on the RD the leverage or pull ratio WILL change.
  4. Dunno bout you, But I'd be in there looking with her... Imagining...
  5. Sheesh. Never realised the berms were THAT steep! Even more respect for these okes & ladies now...
  6. I know... just makes it that much better when set up correctly
  7. How tall? If less than 30 cm or so, weight back, lift bars and then boost the rear wheel over
  8. Yeah. I'm 95% sure there was another tandem there just to the left of the screen. If not then I need to check my eyes
  9. There were 2 tandems in that bunch. One just to the left of the screen, so they were probably racing for position between themselves
  10. Lol. Dude. That wind in 2009 was the 100 kph gust through the "funnel". At least you stayed on though!
  11. Lol. I remember that being the ONLY place my weight and generally good balance worked in my favour in 2009. I was the only one in my group to remain on the bike.
  12. Ju jitsu session last week. One of the okes was a bit too keen in trying to get me to submit via a side arm bar and launched his 95kg weight into the side of my ribs... instead of just rolling back with my arm he jumped and landed with his entire weight on the ribs, leading with his shin. He didn't get the submission, but he bruised the hell outta my ribs. Then on Friday I went back to ju jitsu and tried a few holds / break falls etc. Not the smartest thing to do!
  13. Spam deluxe. Oke registered then spammed each subject they could get to. 74 posts. All shaite.
  14. I'm supporting from home. Via television broadcast. Shoulder is too fooked to make the ride up to wynberg hill, and it's faaaaarking sore. To all those riding - good luck!
  15. How is it pronounced then? I have Say-rus when spelling phonetically
  16. Do it. And the Nukeproofs aren't realy THAT much better, in real terms. They're thinner, which makes them less prone to rock strikes, and they have a slightly beter platform, so they mold to the shoes a bit better. But the V8 copies are brilliant pedals. Cheap. Cheerful. Strong. And for the price of 1 pair of nukeproofs, you have 2 sets of pedals...
  17. If normal tracked delivery (SAPO tracked) then it's about a week or 2.
  18. dub dub dub DOT Torrentz dot EU Links to all the major and minor torrent sites and mirrors. It's effectively Google for torrent feeds.
