  1. Just FYI..got a notification that it happened AGAIN this morning... during traffic!!
  2. Time this morning was around 8h30 right infront of all the cars driving on the N1. They feel F all!
  3. Happened AGAIN this morning. On the N1 just before Woodstock turnoff heading back up to turn left onto paardeneiland/ marine drive. 1 guy brick and 1 guy tried to grab the riders shirt. Luckily he got away.
  4. Just my 2 cents.. I am not saying that it is however the current theft crisis MO is to spray parts and sell online for cheap. So doubt any refund would be offered if you could even get hold of the guy.
  5. When i see a new post to this group i get Anxiety..

  7. This was a really interesting thread to read.... Very negative feedback and that is for a really good reason. A entrepreneur doesn't decide to start a business without taking HUGE risk. There are so many variables , you cannot sit and way up all of them. I started my "Small'' bike shop November 2019 . 3 months later we were closed for a month during lockdown. This was the worst then the best possible thing that could have ever happened. We were flying!! Then stock issues.... Then people running out of that ''holiday'' money they never spent. I have started and run plenty businesses in my short lifetime. However i can tell you that this industry is a different ball game. The absolute hardest part is not the stock issues, it's not location its STAFF. The turn over of mechanics is the biggest hurdle. To find trustworthy , punctual , enthusiastic mechanics is incredibly difficult. Your workshop is the bread and butter of the business. Finally after almost 3 years we have found our groove and we are organically growing year on year. Just a FYI, i still do not have a shimano or sram account as they refuse to open new ones since covid hit. I still make it work. I hustle every single day and focus every ounce of my energy on the clients and making sure they are happy. Everything else follows. Take a leap, nothing ventured nothing gained.
  8. I was in the B batch with him all race. We still broke away from our split with 10km to go. I couldn't believe how strong this guy was! We were 5 guys and with 3km to go I called it a day and he still tried to motivate me to keep on but said they must go. 1min later this all happened. They turned right and the Marshal was almost directing immediate left again which caused the clash... his wife was with us on route handing him bottles all day. The worst part is, the ambulance took 40min to get to him!!? It's absolutely shocking and sad.
