  1. haven't renewed my license in years, only at last years Sani did i have to get a temp license.
  2. nice one, maybe next year the weather will play its part and u can have that fast 3rd day.
  3. Sound about right, cycling doesn't generate the same cash as rugby and soccer, I don't think cricket is to far behind went to watch the lions was about 3 people in the ground.
  4. Hey when u want gold only gold will do. Pimp my ride much?
  5. To many SJW on here, last two years have sucked balls! Threads getting closed down and no more lawyers over the shoulder of the keyboard warrior, man I miss those days. Thank god for the classifieds.
  6. Sad to miss it did a bunch last year, enjoy it.
  7. dont know if you can do it, will mean having to be off the hub for a couple of days.
  8. are you on something Tim? most electronics on a car is rated weapons grade, meaning it can handle the extreme cold, heat and massive vibration. no way that any margin on a bike is held to a higher standard than in the auto industry, you have a controlled explosions going on under the hood, a bike remains a bike a couple of grams shaven isn't master engineering, the 10000 plus parts in you car have thousands of hours worth of engineering behind them.
  9. it sucks that people are prepared to pay these prices.
  10. if you dont have a smile on your face while doing it, its not worth it. its not enough for me that is a challenge, if you want that try the Durban dash, hasn't been done on a MTB route yet.
  11. yip, tried to quit on Thursday before the race and again at water point 2 and 3, kept going to water point 4 at 185km, at that point one of my team mates told me he couldnt peddle another stroke so we packed it up. if you want a challenge this race is for you, if you want to immerse userslf in an experience do the trans, hands down a better in every category. yes the views are probably awesome but u cant see them, food was average, vibe err hard to tell i had a hangover come from a wedding in the bush and had spent 3 days there. take your lynskey and go do the trans you wont regret it Nerd.
  12. save you money and do the trans...by far a better ride and you can see the views.
  13. As long as the race is oversubscribed the organizer will dictate terms, once all the CEO and bankers get tired of riding with has-been you may get a say. When the average MTB doesn't have to sell a kidney, lucky we have 2, but I think that day is long way away.
  14. that would mean you would have to work Patch!
  15. This has been good reading for a Thursday! Love some of the chirps... 75k means it's never gonna happen for me, gonna have to stick to my cheap ass adventure racing.
  16. Looks like 100k can't buy u a finish still takes some blood and guts to get over the line, well done guys keep going gonna be a rough one.
  17. better question what would you recommend in their place Dr V12?
  18. the 10k weekend that never was, its the right decision to call it off yesterday but it maybe time to consider a backup Day and a second route where road closure may not be a problem.
  19. Hub becoming a nanny state? The level of moderation over the past 2 years is getting ....
  20. word, this **** is expensive, never owned a new bike have always gone second hand. Im sure you can find a new to you fork in the classifieds that will help you cause.
