Something about the Zombie Apocalypse.

Just got word that the Berg 100 has been cancelled.

I went there, for the first time in about 20 years, with my kids a couple of months ago. It hasn't changed in 20 years. Same tired exhibits. I was rather disappointed.

Still busy with my David Bowie binge. Moved from my iPod to YouTube. try this one:

If MTB is the new golf does that mean we can cut some single trail and put some golf courses to a real use?

Started in A5. The race was fine until we got to the major bottle neck and then I got to have a nice 30 minute picnic. The seeding was a joke in general, not so much for me but for guys from work I entered with: One guy bought an MTB a month ago, hasn't raced in 7 years and got into A2. I passed him at about the 30km mark.

The entire single trail up to Nikita is pretty close to the road. I haven't heard of any issues and I see guys riding the trail most weekends.

nothing serious? Now there is true application of rule #5

Had a look at their site. Must say I like the 'service package menu' approach. Nice to see what your paying for. "Wheel True - True wheel and tightening of loose spokes (per wheel) - R 75"

Sorted, thanks

I have a 29er rim with a bit of a kink in it. I'm not too sure how detrimental to the hub it will be if I do much riding like it is so I want to get it sorted out just in case. It should be a case of adjusting the spokes, not something I've done before and I really don't want to trash a rim figuring it out. I'm heading through to Centurion this week - where would be a good place to take the rim to get it sorted out?

Yea. I dropped this one. Found myself a 2012 Scott Spark 29er pro for R15k

Just mailed pictures. From the sounds of it the bike was his sons. He's after R17k for it but other than the fact that I am a bit sceptical myself ( I obviously know my bikes entire history) I've also been trying to find a reasonably priced Spark 920 or 940.

Tried looking on their site. The frame looks 2013 (the rear triangle has 'Anthem X ALUXX' on it rather than "GIANT"... that seems common on the 2013) but none of them match the component level. The color scheme matches the X3

Anyone know which Anthem this is? The guy selling it doesn't know !!?? Looks like a 2013 Anthem X3 frame but someone has spent a bit upgrading it: It has full XT, Avid Elixir brakes levers, Fox forks (not sure which), Rock Shox Monarch at the back. I'm also assuming the rims didn't come with the bike - C29SSMAXX. Any idea as to which Anthem it is and what a decent price on it would be?
