  1. I have only had fantastic service from Garmin. Bought 810 Dropped it and cracked screen, sent it in. No more 810, but for around 2k you can get the 820 Thanks Garmin Forward 11 months, Screen gets blue ring and touch not working. Sent in the 820, Received back the whole bundle Forward 9 months and same thing happens Sent in unit aaaannnddd received whole box brand new again. Just hope this one lasts.
  2. Not really, only from what i saw on the braodcast but might be wrong
  3. So KE denies the "rumour" and Mr sponser gets Emma to send letter and now when everything is out in the open they all forgot about the "de-lies" and agression towards Fand...
  4. I felt the same listning to the Epic broad with Robbie using the words "when you race on the road"...or " in road racing ....." The Epic is NOT a road race
  5. Wonder if Fandacious received an appology for the "letter" he received from Emma? When he had to appologise to Kevin, and now the truth is out that he was doping?
  6. Did the same, and I did not believe the "wait till you are older and you will feel those injuries every day"
  7. Thanks, you dont perhaps have a garmin connect file? I am not on Summit so I can not download it
  8. But Faaaark it does not heal up that quick any longer
  9. Serious Question, do you perhaps have a route for that? Can one ride to Blackhouse and then around to Tokai? GPX file perhaps?
  10. Hmm now that is the thing, where on these trail do we learn that ?
  11. I somewhat agree with this. But is the club building for the 5% or the 95%? Stuff can be technical and fun, but also safe for other riders. Why is there even a Flow terra? To keep 5% of the club happy ? Lets have one section for XCO then and make the Flow terra fun for all not just 5%
  12. Did you notice that there are / were 3 drops. BUT 1st and 2nd where the same height and then the 3rd was 3 times as high...yes I measured them.
  13. So those among us 45 years plus that works for themselfs and enjoys MTB'ing or like you said they dont do MTBing. Should hang up their bikes? If they get it wrong, and fall they dont earn money ? The club does not provide a proper PROGRESSION place.
  14. Why not, it is a drop if you want it to be one and not if you dont. At Conties at the bottom of Cheeky Corners there used to be a gap, then they made it a table. It was not killing the take off as it is Wood, and I rode that thing plenty and only NOW can I clear it. And a lekker feeling when you land it and you do not hear the wood sound and you go "I made it"
  15. This is how I used to know also if I "made" it or not.
  16. Someting like this If the club would be ok with it, I am happy to install some boards on Flow Terra to make to gap jumps "learnable"
  17. We put a plank up in Majick years ago at one of the gaps...it was a WIDE plank and helped a few of us to learn the clear that gap....then one does not ride for a while and when you come back you could at least use the plank/board to build confidence again. Kids went and detroyed our build
  18. Patrick said they closed the XCO line due to the 10 + accidents they had there while training so it was only opened for Pro's. Male and female. My problem is "progression" put some planks on the gaps so it is not all or nothing. I jumped that gap at Lombaards, ONCE, took a while to healup again. Now where do I get confidence again.....go to jump park and jump the table tops then when I "try" the gap and miss....hospital again?
  19. Fully agree.....flow terra is going to waste...put some planks there and make it table and more can ride it while we learn to jump it. At least it will get used, atm only a handfull and I am going to say less than 5% of the club can ride it.
  20. I will look again, but like I said why not put PLANKS so you can hear when you dont make it. Like at the Lombaards track, there are LOTS of gaps that more people can ride and that will help keeping the track nice and bedded down also, and give us the opertunity to learn to jump them Take that big jump on Lombaards, why not put a plank there, just below the take off and about 1.5" below landing lip....like a safety net?
  21. Interesting that the XCO trail could only be ridden by the pro's ? So why does the club spend so much time on build technical trails and then only yher Pro's and mabye a handfull of 150mm travel bikes can ride it when the 90% of the members ride 100mm bikes and do not have that skill Then again, why don't they build stuff where one can progress? The "skills" park is a jump park not skills Gap jump are everywhere, but if you dont make it you go to hospital.....Why not make table tops then we can all learn to clear them and put a plank there so when I do not clear them I dont spend time in hospital I can go traight back and try again and again. Even at the "skills" park there are GAP jumps not a jump with a plank??
  22. Yes I think the Akira is a Honda clone so will it be unleaded ptrol then?
  23. Normal as in Lead replacement or unleaded? Seems Akira is a rebranded china made gen. so not much online
  24. Does anyone know the Akira 6500 series generator and what type of oil and petrol does it take Got one from my dad (after he passed away) and i dont have the manual also can not find any docs online ....
  25. Put on a new chain and see if it slips, if not then ride it if it does change casette
