I have some cycling shirts both short and long sleeve, bibs and cycling shoes that my son is not using anymore. Anyone know about a cycling charity or struggling academy I can give it to? Young adult size.

Any idea where we can view pics?

I've got some of the above if you need. Where are you and how do I get it to you?

I have the following to donate if you can use it: Scott Aspect 640 frame (medium) 2 x 26" rims with tubeless tyres 1 Rock shock recon (needs service) Front and rear disk brake hydraulic system without a disc I would like to donate the above to someone that really needs it. Want to pay a good deed forward!

My 16yo son did the 45 km. He would love to do the big one but luckily there's an age restriction on it. He is a big boy (tips the scales at 100 kg - heads up future Buffalo). Phoned me at the first uphill almost crying from backache. I told him to do what he thinks best. He, of course, carried on and finished in 3:12 and loved it (7th in his age category). I have one problem now, he wants to do downhill racing!!! LOVED the downhills, can't stop talking about it. Told him until he is on his own medical aid, no downhill racing will be done! He will definitely be back next year and can't wait until he is 19 to do the big one and of course the Cape Epic!

It is the same one. http://www.wheels24.co.za/News/SA-motorsport-gem-Steve-Wicks-killed-20140509 RIP Steve.

A Scott Scale 960 and a weekend/holiday job to make up the difference between the R5k he has and what we need to pay for the bike!!! He's very excited. The guys at the shop knows him quite well and has trained with him and agreed that he cannot get onto a entry level bicycle. Magalies Monster here we come!! It's his 3rd and last of the short route. Next year he's 17 and then he wants to pack the "real" Monster.

Thank you, I appreciate your assistance. I won't be put off the Hub, lots of decent folks around!!

Can you please point out where I accused the store owner of selling stolen goods?

Uhmmmm...... not sure where the hostility is coming from, but I'm actually looking for a bicycle and someone asked do we know what the price is??? I phoned out of real interest but as a novice, I'm a bit nervous to buy from non-bike shop. I merely gave some feedback, didn't know that was looking for ****!!

I phoned them, they want R12 999 for the bicycle. When I asked some spec questions they didn't have a clue what I'm talking about. Just told me to come and have a look. I asked whether they would be negotiable on the price and they told me to come and we can talk. Obviously not going!!!

Thank you everyone. Unfortunately none of the bikes in the classifieds were suitable, either too small, too far or not strong enough (my child is build like a 1st team Rugby lock instead of a cyclist - and growing). The good guys at Cycle Lab worked out something for us and he should be getting his new bicycle by the middle of this week!

A medium Scott is too small for him, we have tried. Pity...

Thanks, I will give them a try.
