  3. One of the owners of Chain Worx Cycles in Umhlanga was the person arrested.
  4. Definition of awesome!
  5. I once hit a pedestrian on my dirt bike. He was walking towards me, in the middle of a gravel road. I headed to the far left to get past, but it turns out he was old, blind and deaf, and at the last second, he heard me coming and instinctively jumped to his right, straight into me. Not a pleasant experience, as I really thought I'd killed him. Now I take it really slowly around pedestrians on whichever bike I'm on.
  6. I'm sure there is a battle plan somewhere that will help...
  7. Snake bite puncture? Should have gone tubeless.
  8. Awesome!And that was my local track when I was living in the UK. Great riding!

  11. New team name: Medbank360LifeTimeBan
  12. Wow! Quote from their team page "As health and wellness ambassadors for 360Life, the cycling team knows what it takes to live life at peak performance. Life is little different from professional cycling: what you put in determines what you get out. ‘As worldclass cyclists, we have to maintain a balanced life to ensure that we are on top form,’ explains Kevin. ‘Not only must we maintain physical fitness, but we also need to be mentally and emotionally strong to compete well. That is why we are ecstatic to represent Nedgroup Life as a brand that has made holistic wellness a core principle of its company philosophy and product design through 360Life and the become wellness programme,’ adds Dave."
  13. I'll be there competing in Pro class.What we have in store for us http://1.1.1.5/bmi/i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/Hennjean/Roof%202012/IMGP3387.jpg http://1.1.1.5/bmi/i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/Hennjean/Roof%202012/IMGP3382.jpg http://1.1.1.3/bmi/i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/Hennjean/Roof%202012/IMGP3380.jpg http://1.1.1.1/bmi/i440.photobucket.com/albums/qq122/Hennjean/Roof%202012/IMGP3379.jpg
  14. From the 40km (Garmin eTrex 20)
  15. http://photomarx.co.za/page/homeThey should have all the pics uploaded by Thursday.
  16. Felt like a complete dirt roadie on the ride. Flew along the flat sections at a good pace, but as soon as the track turned uphill, I just went backwards. Apologies to all those that had to get past my walking ass on the climbs. Definitely need to practice my hill climbing some more. The route itself was great. The single track was good and varied. The 1st steep downhill was scary! Big respect to those that rode down that. The off-camber rock section before and after the 1st waterpoint was seriously technical, and required proper skills and commitment. I lost my sense of humor on the uphill after the 2nd waterpoint, but quickly found it again on the next descent. Overall, still relatively pleased with my 40km result. 2:27:55 184th
  17. Just threaten him with legal action. I'm sure he'll back off then.

  20. Hardly a vendetta. If you followed this story, without bias, you would see that Jarrad merely asked some probing questions about the product (which is controversial, whatever way you look at it). In response, he was shot down, blocked on Twitter and threatened with legal action. Who is the one actually not engaging in the conversation?
  21. Woohoo!!! another bottle! oh and a key ring thingamabob, with some toiletries.
