  11. I'm a big fan of Raleigh Bicycles, from the road series to the Mountainbikes. I ride a RM9 Carbon Raleigh hardtail. Simmilar to one in Picture only with XTR. But i have one question: When will raleigh ever make a Dual-sus in Carbon. Common Raleigh, i'm sure if you had one Kevin Evans would be riding it! Now look what he rides now. Vucan, Wow ! What a bike, looks great and rides like a annimal. Now, hope Raleigh comes alive and develops a mean Carbon Dual-sus Machine. I'll bet you i'll be the first to buy one!

  19. I have recently bought a set of Fulcrum red metal 5 disc. the weight +- 1850g, excellent wheels. Not the best in weight class but for R2200 Sealed bearings, 2:1 spoke ratio. I tested them in the Sibebe MTB race in Swaziland and they took some heavey beating thru rocky and technical decents. So if your not to much of a weight weenie Red Metal 5 excellent.

  22. Good to hear from so many cyclist! As i can follow, the traffic rule on the arive alive web page does not specify how far left one should keep to the side of the road. I just think it's commin sense that a cyclist should keep left and not bunch up and be a newsence to traffic and slowing the cars down, because of big bunch of cyclist preventing them from overtaking. I'm actually a mtb rider, but train on the tarr during the week and is amased to see the cyclist riding in the middel of their lane and not moving left for traffic.
  23. Can anyone shed some info on this question? How much of the road is a cyclist allowed to use according to the road traffic rules. For example riding along a straight road, what does the rule say how much space am i allowed to use without interfering with regular road users? Any cycling traffic cops that can help or a Road commisaire, would be appretiated Thanks!
  24. Hi there, as a club comitee member we were told at our Ocktober 2008 Mpumalanga meeting the following. The word from CSA is that the online licence system has a lot of hick-ups. Use the old paper system and only change the date at the top. Fees stayed the same and reason for this disicion came from CSA head office meeting. Our club applied in this way early November 2008 and we got our licences late January no problems! If anyone need licence form 2009 e-mail me at andreraleigh@yahoo.com and i will gladly send u a copy Raleighman2009-03-02 13:57:58
