  1. I am looking for an entry. Anybody have one
  2. Learn to kitesurf. Seems that the species involved don,t like water
  3. An even worse excuse than contaminated meat. How much substance can get accidentally on the outside of gel capsules, get handled while filling with bicarb soda , and still has detectable amounts on it. bull****
  4. You have no brain. According to your spelling. "weekend worrier!!" Better follow your heart. Don't get upset, just joking. DS is the way to go
  5. I do agree, that performance cannot be improved by buying a new bike.I also had a few: 2 Battaglins, C40,C50,Time VXS,Time VXRS Ulteam(very nice), Time RXRS Ulteam(the harshest ride ever), Look 585 and 595 Ultra, Dogma 2 and at the moment Dogma65.1(best handling bike on downhill I ever rode) and Litespeed T1(2014 model with Enve fork,bar ,stem and seatpost) The Litespeed is by far the most comfortable as far as road vibration is concerned. However, if you like the bike it is best for you and that F8 is a beaut
  6. Buy it. I have 65.1 Think2 and it is out of this world. F8 will rule
  7. Jealousy makes you nasty
  8. Use water bottles. You waste money on Camelbacj. Fill up if in need of more than 2. Pretty soon you will ride 40km on half a bottle
  9. If you ride with a pistol, it will make cyclist bigger targets, because now they can steal a cellphone, R100 and a gun! The attacker has the surprise factor on his side. you will never have enough time to even take out your gun.The people buying stolen bikes should be caught
  10. Now for his friend Froome. From zero to hero in 3 seasons. Most spectacular rise to the top in cycling. 7,2 W/ Kg???
  11. Go to Bormeo. Do Passo Stelvio. Great cycling region
  12. I had the exact bike. The frame , fork and seatpost back then was about R15k. which was a lot then. I think R18K, but keep it. It is priceless :thumbup:
  13. Ride as much multi stage mtb races as you can next year and do epic in 2016. You will be better prepared than trying to do it as a novice.
  14. Trans Alp not in the class of Epic. Way easier
  15. Shut up technical
  16. Jy weet verseker nie waarvan jy praat nie. Ek weet , ek het 3 gedoen(2 keer top 75). Dis egte mtb'ing. Kyk hoe suffer almal. As jy goed is, is jy goed ,maak nie saak road of mtb. Hy het nie die skill soos Sauser, maar jy raak nie 'n Euro Pro as jy nie BAIE goed is nie.
  17. I had Bora's and Lightweights. Currently on Zipp 303 clinchers. Enjoy them much more than the tubbys, because a puncture is not R900 anymore. By the way , the Zipp hubs , is the smoothest you can get. Check out what they say about the bearings they use
  18. That is exactly where the DC ends. No Cannondales in Swellendam, I think
  19. Bet they are from CT.
  20. Kask!!
  21. I've done 15 Argus rides. 9 sub three. This year I rode with my wife in BB. Wind and sore legs after Boland Tour made me do that. I saw lots of riders touching hands or shoulders and then nervously swing away from each other. This causes lots of riders crashing. Ask a riding buddy and practice to just slightly lean into each other when accidentally touching. This way you will gently part, not causing others to crash.
