  1. Can one not ask for a "Rain check"(or is it cheque?) as with the new advertising laws if something is advertised at a price and they do not have it in stock(advertising it is in stock), then they have to give it to you at that price even if you have to weight for stock. I've done this on a special at PnP.
  2. Anyone got the profile with metric measurements? PPA has feet and miles...
  3. Sorry to hear man. Would've thought they would stay away from the noname chinese stuff! Hope it gets retrieved. If not I guess it's time to build up another!
  4. Is this seen as a good thing or bad? Not quite sure I think it's great!
  5. Motorists don't want or need a reason to hate us. They just do.
  6. The booth carbon bottle cages are really really good at holding the bottles. At something like R80 it's def worth it! (Not to mention the weight...)
  7. Also check out the Concept (china) carbon deep sections. Similar to DH.
  8. Oh no, here goes...
  9. I didn't ride but I went for breakfast in Stellies, and there were Lights by Linea flag/banners up too *stir*

  11. Haha wow you guys are very critical of the looks of these litterbugs. They are elite after all, puts them in the top 350 seeding
  12. Will be there!
  13. Good stuff This kind of thing make cycling races look very bad, especially MTB where we're meant to be enjoying the environment and scenery
  14. This might make me a d**s but here he is: http://photos.jetlineactionphoto.com/the_pennypinchers_die_burger_lions_karoo_to_coast_mountain_bike_race_2013_9118/2d9644de1a5c39cc9530e873c9cb9c36_DSC_5408.JPG Really don't appreciate people throwing their wrappers down. Especially not in that beautiful Knysna forest...
  15. My first K2C. Was awesome. The elite bunch was super fast, especially on those downhills (nvm the uphills haha). First time ever cramping, don't think my training was enough for that distance! Very fun and fast race. Cool vibe too! "Hou bene hou"
  16. Personally I think it is caused by stress, anxiety. And then also Adrenal Fatigue (google it, most of us have it without knowing and really not easy to get rid of) I recommend drinking herbs to help calm your nerves such as Ashwaganda or Valerian(non-pharmaceuticals). Solal also brings out a herbal remedy called Burn-out, it is not cheap but I have been taking it(although I don't have RLS, I do have adrenal fatigue) and i think it works wonders. Edit: I stay away from Pharmaceuticals as much as I possibly can!
  17. Jokes on me...
  18. And results please!!
  19. Awesome JJack. Please let us know how she rides! I've been looking at some 50mm clinchers aswell, but I found the Dengfu ones are quite heavy (they emailed me something like 1600g) but pretty cheap at like 400 dollars or so.
  20. Was an awesome finish. Was good to see Nibali try so hard! Quitters never win
  21. Will be interested in seeing what people say, usually in summer I don't wear a base layer (cos it gets so damn hot, I just wanna wear as little as possible
  22. Like shorts to wear out to the movies?
  23. Gargle salt water! Sore throat is caused by Streptococcus(bacterium), and it can't live at a high salt concentration.
  24. Hels is out. Route: Allee Bleue, 40km circuit around Wemmershoek and Simondium - R45 Flat and fast...
  25. Trails are awesome. Just ignore the politics and ride! It's worth it
