  2. I'll look for them tonight. And see if I can scan and send them tomorrow.
  3. [quote=wolverine When you say 'rode' do you mean cycle? Must have been awesome Yip Cycle I wasn't even riding properly then, I think I had just started to look into it. I was very unfit so we had to go very early to make sure we get to the top and back before the border post closes in the afternoon. I admit I did most of it walking up but down was scary and fast and by the time we got to the end I thought I was going to cry and I couldn't hold on the the handle bars anymore. But that said it was an absolutely awesome experience and I really wana do it again. And I'd probably ride most of it this time.
  4. About 3 years ago I road up Sani Pass, there was still snow on the top part of the pass and it was absolutely beautiful. I have foto's somewhere will try find them. I would actually like to go do that again sometime.
  5. I have no words ....................

  10. A friend of mine have Oakley "Master Dogs", man they are as porno as anything, you can't get them in SA though, I am so getting a friend of mine to bring me some when she goes on hols to the states at the end of the month. I'll try get a pic of them.
  11. You guys at the front don't know it, you were to busy leaving the rest of us behind but we also stopped to look athe the dolphins swimming past.
  12. Woof!!!!
  13. Here is a small tip for all (those who don't already know). take a small empty bottle of eye drop solution and re-fill this with lube, keep this in your saddle bag or back pocket for these re-lubing situations. works well!!!
  14. Has anybody tried that place behind cresta shopping center, something PIG or other??
  15. Very well done girl!!!!
  16. Apparently he is doing it in aid of 2 charities. WW I think you and slowpoke are going to have a fight as to who he rides with!
  17. [quote name=wolverine Black and silver. Only one in size 60 available' date=' sorry. Kit sounds cool, never been a big Euskatel fan though so I may just give the kit a miss[/quote] This particular kit is in Black and white, don't do the orange either! They've got it at Westdene cycles, if you're ever in that area.
  18. the ORCA frame is gorgeous!!!! I'd lurv one!!!! Saw it in the shop last year for R16K. Is it the whote or the orange??? If you buys it you going to have to get the kit they made specially for it as well!!! Very Nice!!!!!
  19. Hey Andy, fantasitc news!!!! All the best to him and may he be back on his bike soon, even just for the love of riding!!!
  20. Hey DR, so sorry to hear this. Hope you and the family are all ok!!!!!
  21. I eco the congrats to Trackie and Gavin, well done boys!! Is awesome to see you guys on the podium. I spoke to Gavin after the race and he said that crash was very bad and that it was caused by another tandem in the group, apparently these guys have been causing a bit of crap in the group on a few occasions. Anyway, well done to everyone who rode!! It was an awesome ride and I had a fantastic time. And special thanks to MichaelH who kept me company the enitire race! And for encouraging me over those "undulations" in the last 10 km's. Once again sorry if we were to loud but at least we made for good intertainment!!
  22. I know exactly what you are saying. I find it also depends on how experienced you are as a rider. Friends of mine can feel an emmediate difference if their sadle is moved just a cm or two and I'm like "WTF??? It feels the same to me", so I can then understand why you would'nt notice a difference so fast. Maybe instead of taking it around the block a few times, take it on a long ride, with some minor tech stuff built in (if it's MTB), you should then be able to judge the handling etc a little bit more, oh and wear padding, just in case you do indeed fly over the handle bars
