Actualy was not trying to stir was just looking for local alternatives to Chain Reaction.

Here where had you pre - ordered from ?

Disaster in Duneden, not sure how long this will carry on Dale before something has to give. Big problems that need to be sorted out. There were 16 teams on the field yesterday, The Highlanders and 15 Sharks players.

And the Sharks did not lose

Must be seriously light !! Whats it weigh?

Yip - will be doing the same. Nothing wrong in taking the best from both companies and combining it.

This new cassette, which is compatible with 1x11 drivetrains only, continues to use a standard freehub body, meaning it will fit your existing wheels. Although we presume it will, in fact, work, Shimano states this new 11-42T cassette shouldn't be used with M9000 XTR.

Words Fail Me !!

Yip, could not believe that the Sharks went on to win it. *** game of rugby though.

Wonder if we will get any more red cards !!

Hey Huez - glad to see Dale is back

Well done Sharkies - beating Toulon - European and French champions

Well done Bulls - nice performance against Saracens, good to see some rugby again.

Good news - Go Joel, looking forward to watching your progress in the race.

They will also get good coverage from the Phil and Paul show which will be great

Brilliant - Go Cannondale Garmin and MTN Qubeka !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :clap:

And lets not forget the South african connection - Robbie Hunter is one of the Directeur Sportif for the team.

Yip - Vaughters is quite proud of the fact that they have the youngest pro team out there - hopefully all that youthfull enthusiasm will produce some good results

I know, so much to get used to - Sagan on a Spaz, Shimano on a team Cannondale Garmin bike, EZrider on a Santa Cruz, Jake White gone from the Sharks(okay - not so bad), no Camo outfit for the Bulls, Dale considering a MTB, so many changes - luckily I am an adaptable person

Yip - they won the award as the coolest team last time they raced the Epic

Go Cannondale !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Having had a bad knee injury I can imagine what he must have felt. Looking at that and thinking of the ligament damage I think he is out the world cup.

So the Sharks play Toulon and the Bulls Saracens in their respective Super 15 Warm Up campaigns - two good international games coming up
