N Farm Saturday...

Northern Farm today.. overcast and windy

Must be Joburg war museum?

I think we might just be in for a surprise or three....

The Spruit, our ugly duckling (some say..) does have some redeeming views...

I agree, I nearly switched off when Rosberg didn't make the start, then thought his drive thru the field would be worth a watch, but that never happened. There were a few highlights down the field tho....

Exactly... but more fuel to the fire... Montezemolo: I have decided to leave my position http://www.grandprix247.com/2014/09/10/montezemolo-a-warm-farewell-this-is-the-end-of-an-era/

Haas F1 Team on course to be Ferrari B-team in F1 http://www.grandprix247.com/2014/09/09/haas-f1-team-to-be-ferrari-b-team-in-f1/ So not much to look forward to then......

If they want them badly enough, they always seem to make a plan... just need enough moola!

Not in the league of the recent posts above... but it's our backyard... Hurlingham crossing.. the Spruit

Either will do, but NF is more "countryfied" so maybe overall a better experience... missing out the squatters!

In my experience Mavic is another product that CRC won't post to SA, so yeah, protectionism

Fortunately, the same laws of competition apply to the online stores, so to keep them honest (ish) there's nothing to stop anyone from competing against the existing ones

Until you decide to go from a 100mm one to a 70mm long one :-)

BTW, not sure I would trust anyone to strip, store and rebuild my bike. The components are too valuable to leave lying around in some shop

cycledelic never bothered to respond to my email quote request .. (unless their reply is in my junkmail folder) I sent photos of old paint job and new ideas... cycleart.co.za in Randvaal quoted me R2200 - R2500 for a complete respray of my Anthem including matt finish, if required, and decals

Any suggestions for a DIY clearcoat....

I can recommend Neville at Linden Cycles.. make sure you get him, no one else!

I have only had good experiences on the classified section. Just use common sense and preferably have a chat with the buyer/seller and soon enough you'll know what's up. Obviously if the other party has been registered on the Hub for a few years, has some posts (not the most important thing in my opinion, but helps), maybe also has some positive ratings in the marketplace... and watch for that scam Eldron mentioned...

Spruit - Alberts Farm to Bryanston.. and back

They're still at it! 29/08/2014 "Nico Rosberg has emerged from a crisis meeting with senior Mercedes F1 team management and Lewis Hamilton apologising to them while admitting that he made an error of judgement in his attempt to overtake his teammate on lap two of the Belgian Grand Prix and has agreed to the rules of engagement as set out by the Silver Arrows bosses." This is off Grandprix247... Sorry, I agree the blame tips in favour of Rosberg... but FF sake can't we move move on already!!

An additional trick is to put the bearing in the freezer for as long as possible and then warm up the housing.. sometimes the bearing will just drop in, and certainly with a leeetle tap it will be home

I was just thinking, I bet that happened in London... happened to a mate of mine.. but pretty useless thieves leaving the crank behind...

Too much hype! Press hype mostly... Compared with some of Schumacher's trickery this is mildish (racing incident and the car following usually wins these type of contests... a gentle nudge off the road!) .. just a pity we were robbed of a potentially great dice between Hamilton and Rosberg, that for me was the big issue, although a great drive by Daniel has opened up some interesting possibilities... and also great to see how he's putting Vettel in the shade... I think things can only get better this year
