  1. Just asking. My first proper bike was a Italian Zini with Nuovo Record.
  2. The problem is that you pick up the virus at the PnP, spread it to your friend who gives it to his aged mother who then dies. Really, it's not that difficult to separate what is hype and what this disease can actually do. For most of us it's an inconsequential inconvenience - it does however kill those we love and care about. Social distancing and mask wearing along with basic hygiene are really not that difficult to get your head around.
  3. Local built frame by Gotty or pukka Italian Zini?
  4. See, that's not the same thing at all as the exercise thing, and you are in fact potentially spreading the virus. You shouldn't be doing that.
  5. Do we have to show the ones we got during the crackdown as well? Or will the ppa police pick a fight?
  6. When did this happen?
  7. Happy to be of service. It was the standard taunt between us riders on the first team I raced for. Always stuck with me.
  8. I usually only upload to strava once a month anyway. I'll just do that every second month now. Besides, as I have mentioned, I see plenty of saps and metro plod both far from home and after hours and I get a merry greeting and that's it.
  9. Well, I dunno who this ppa is but they are welcome to come suck my chamois dry after a ride for all I care. Some bunch of grade A nimrods from the western cape thinking they can speak on my behalf.
  10. So, that movie Inception was real
  11. https://www.bikeexchange.com.au/blog/aero-vs-endurance-vs-lightweight Which seems the opposite of what you're saying. I'll find reference to forks now. (Although preliminary reading suggests they are the same measurements across the board - although of course rake differs across forks) https://www.cyclingweekly.com/group-tests/road-bike-geometry-explained-407599 Which suggests to me that it wouldn't change no matter what you do to the fork, but rather changes on the angle and length of the head tube and top tube.
  12. And this thread caused that article? Or is it now articles? I confuse...
  13. Only if he goes somewhere else and dominates like he does at ineos. Whilst we're on the subject, what kind of program does Arkea-Samsic have that enabled Quintana to suddenly start winning again?
  14. This post is hidden because you have chosen to ignore posts by 'Dale. I wonder why I did that.
  15. I have noticed as well, the roads empty right sharp just before the curfew. It's surreal. I increasingly only get home 9:30-ish, and everytime I'm over the limit I get passed by SAPS or encounter EMPD parked on the side of the road. Everytime they wave a greeting which I return and all is well with the world.
  16. Why do cyclists who are riding in groups at this time feel the need to shout obscenities and disparaging things at you when you (riding solo - as a precaution for health reasons) take a wide berth and accelerate past them to maintain distance? What's with the rampant inferiority complex amongst these creatures?
  17. Hi. I've been here before, I'm sure it looks familiar. I'm Bob by the way.
  18. I think you can call her ex-hubber. I think she's (still) on a short leash with social media after the WAG's spat during the Tour that time....
  19. Let me edit that. I understood what the guy meant. Have a go at him then, not me.
  20. It isn't really. It was pretty well explained the first time you brought it up here. Good luck. I hope it is successful.
  21. Why does no one ask why the OP is replacing his saddle? Is that not relevant?
  22. I wouldn't lick mine. I know what's in my sweat.
  23. I think if you just don't lick your bike, you'll be ok there.
  24. One of the biggest differences in that is that Lance was never viewed as having limited talent. (Also, everyone is (probably) still full of stuff...)
  25. Find similar talent and give em bilharzia and let's see?
