  1. If they carry on like this the results will only reflect that Cherise Stander and Ariane Kleinhans won the 2015 Sani2C. I have yet to see an explanation given on the bottom of a results page! Hats off to her, maybe a new chapter for a great young home grown talent.
  2. Anyone able to tell me if Pyga would honour the warranty on a frame if I bought 2nd hand. Is it my imagination or are there a lot of these frames cracking?
  3. The most effective way to change my diet is to change the food I eat at work, breakfast and lunch. My request is that anyone on the LCHF diet post some meals here for breakfast and lunch that I can try 5 days a week, please. Thanks.
  4. History has a habit of repeating itself. SA Cricketers still cannot win when it matters. Exciting match.
  5. I should add, Kevin Vermark has done well. He started it, built a brand, made some money and had some fun, good luck to him selling the business. And don't forget that, it's a business. He does not get out of bed every morning thinking that he owes the average Joe an affordable entry into a world class MTB event, hell, the Worlds Premier MTB stage race.
  6. I bought an early bird entry a few years back, R25 k or just about, got busy training and then after 6 months realised that it required more commitment than I was prepared to give so I sold the entry. It's a huge part of your life for most of the year if you want to enjoy it and at R60 k you would feel that you need to get everything out of it to justify that kind of effort. Well it would be for me anyway. The sacrifices were not worth it in the end. Am I sorry? Once a year when the race comes around for a few minutes, then I get busy planning something else.
  7. 1.5 Mill for a Skyline!!

  9. Never mind the Ab crunch, where is the rider review on that Pyga 29er?............please
  10. If you loose the knife you could always throw the plant at the problem
  11. Sorry to hear that. Hope they keep trying to get it off the ground.
  12. Looking for an XL road bike/frame, the older the better. Been following this thread and would love to build a bike for myself, any ideas? Please.
  13. Has any research been done to determine if tyre sealant causes delamination? If it did then surely all of the tyres from a manufacturer running a particular sealant would experience the same problem. Alternatively the tyres would delaminate in numerous places. If so then the stockist would be obliged to tell you not to use a specific brand.
  14. A vet. taking dope to race a bicycle...........that's just desperate.
  15. What? Sky were the only team on the juice? Please!
  16. Had mine done at a panel beater I know in Boksburg. Stripped it myself and put some old BB's in the frame to keep the paint off the threads, rest was masked with tape. Paid R 500.00 a few years back. still looks good. http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r156/war63423/Trance.jpg
  17. 1. How did you get to put more grease in the bearing, it should be a sealed unit? Too much grease on the pawls? 2. Bearings need to be pressed into place. Warm the hub up in the sun or use a hair dryer carefully and place the bearing in a plastic bag in the freezer for an hour. Use a correctly sized spacer, sockets work well enough and a G clamp with two blocks of wood and tighten the clamp to seat the bearing. Never take a hammer to a bearing, you will damage the bearing race.
  18. Slime Pro http://www.bikerumor.com/2013/09/19/ib13-slime-pro-sealant-now-better-co2-compatible/
  19. Grip shifter will take care of that problem, one twist at a time.
  20. onehundredpushups.com Ellis Park swimming pool, 27 degrees in the 25 metre pool at the moment. R 220.00 for a season ticket they open very early in the morning if you are a season ticket holder.
  21. Every now and again they run a batch, something to do with retaining the name/recipe rights. I read that somewhere after the last run date, might have been the internet, in which case it's gospel
  22. Perhaps it has been suggested before, but is there any chance that those coming as well as those going could move off the path to their left, leaving the path open, for just in case. That way no one would loose the urinating contest, no one would get punched and both riders would survive the spruit experience to ride another day. This would save the police from having to come out and arrest a cyclist for shooting another cyclist because he refused to move off the path whilst racing world champs in his head. Just a thought. Must be the water in that spruit, I never encounter this where I ride.
  23. Waterpaper and a tin of spray paint. If you scratched them once............
