Agreed. In the words of Jacob Zuma, "TMNP will rule until Jesus comes"

Well he's not going to be ripping any double-black diamond stuff anytime soon. Just something to cruise around the burbs I assume. Budget would be around 7k

to answer point 1. that would require logic and this is a government department 2. see point 1 above 3. have you seen the fashion slaves on the Hub biaaatch about attaching bike boards to their precious bikes?

I have a guy who works for me who weighs 150kg - yes ONE FIFTY. He wants to buy a bike and is obviously worried about the bike carrying his weight. Any heavy okes out there have any advice to offer. He wanted to buy this bike. https://www.takealot.com/fat-bike-26-inch-21-speeds-black/PLID71382995 - I told him to rather take up running. Although this almost had me convinced - Specifications: Full Shocking proof Frame, Effectively offset shocks Soft and cushion, ensuring long-time riding comfortable wear-resistant,anti-skid tire Double disc brake sensitive and stable, Smooth flexible and precise

no they don't. there is a thing called freedom of choice

might need to take the shock off lock-out for a bit

that bit on the inside of the left hander looks pretty gnarly

South African mountain biking

+1 for Homeland.

No sure about GoT. Never watched it, but try - Ozark Fauda Narcos

I guess he never has a vindaloo the night before a ride....

love it. have done R2R and will definitely be back for the full monty.

yes it's a bit nippy

was -17degC a day or so ago somewhere along the trail. Yes that's MINUS SEVENTEEN.

I'd like to meet Kate never mind the Contessa. Am I allowed to say that or will someone be offended?????

the people shall overcome the oppressor......

just finished the Polish series 1983. Found it interesting and worth a watch.

I must add, I rode down Blomendaler behind a guy on a gravelbike once. Jeez that guy could handle a bike. I stayed with him but just barely.

did a quick calculation. wife's car plus my car roughly 3% of the non-bonded value of our properties

admin bru. no thanks. I'm one of those ride it till it feels k@k or breaks type of riders.

On that topic, we moved into an apartment the we used to rent out to be closer to the kids' schools. There are a brother and sister that own the apartment downstairs and live there. Early thirties. He drives a BMW M4 and she drives a BMW M3. Apartment is worth 2.5 bar tops. Oh and her boyfriend drives a M4 as well. The mind boggles.

the real question is how do you keep track of the hours on your shock? You as in the general you not you specifically. I have no farking idea.

Yes I've seen them

don't take me seriously dude. I don't care what they ride, I just don't understand it. I understand gravel bikes on gravel roads - that makes sense. But on those jeep tracks - I don't get it. The more people on the mountain the better - from a safety perspective. They can ride 1978 choppers for all I care.

Plum Pudding? Probably the Epic guys complaining it's too technical. I seriously hope not. One of the few bits of proper single track on the mountain
