  16. I cycle cause....... 1. I get outta the house ( i so hate being a couch potatoe ) 2. I like the sound the tyres makes against the tarmac ( doesnt happen in a car or on a MTB which sounds like a dirty washing machine ) 3. I enjoy pushing the limits ( found out i have very low limits as a rookie ) 4. I enjoy the view 5. after i climb a hill , a nice long hill , i know there is gonna be a long downhill after and i love the idea of breaking/approaching the speed limit of cars with a bicycle it feels awesome when drivers look at their speedo and then you lol 6. etc this is some of the reasons why i cycle
  17. Sucks big time hope u find the bikes

Lol my top end is maybe limited coming down suikerbossie the beast speed I achieved was 69km/h maybe I need a smaller gear ? @ Eugene i bought the bike with that setup and it works but there is play in the cassette almost like I need to shift twice to get from the smallest gear to the second smallest gear

Currently unavailable http://www.evanscycles.com/images/layout/email_me_icon.gif?1354082524 thing is i have a chorus derailure. i read that it would still work without hassles but i honestly do not understand the ratio parts. i know "26" would be the better climbing gear but the "11/12/13" i am not sure about. anybody has some advice for me ? on whether it would work firstly and which tooth option is best ?
  20. wishing you guys all the best . next year im gonna be on your heels
  21. i honestly think drunk drivers should be hung from a light pole( not by their neck) with a big sign on them saying " i am looser " but that wont happen !! so next best thing they should be held accountable, they should realise the seriousness of their actions and they should be charged with Murder( if they killed someone) !!! there are enough campaigns about not drinking and driving, there has been enough deaths. you saying im being biased im saying i am speaking out of experience !!! if this guy is charged with murder sent to prison and bum raped im pretty sure his friends would NOT drink and drive !
  22. @Neutral thinking your brain is clearly in neutral and does have any drive function! i was in three car accidents and in all three i was hit by a drunk driver, i have no sympathy for these A$$es further i have a few things to say to you ! 1. for someone to come out of the blue, onto an old post an suddenly have this huge opinion, clearly means you have a relation to the drunken fool or you are the fool himself! 2. i just took up cycling and reading this makes me very scared, its not the part that someone got knocked down, its the part that someone got knocked down by a drunk driver and there is still this ghost trying to defend it !!!! 3. if it was a loved one in relation to you that was killed would you be able to still have the same Neutral thinking ??? i really dont think so. 4. you have some Eiers to come onto this forum il give you that , but over the net we all are extremly well mastered in Keyboard Kung FU i dont wish ill on people but i think you should take up cycling ....
  23. this could work
  24. will also be joining by the looks of it. Wannabee is giving me a head start so my name is on there again
