  7. Back brake has a lever on the handle bars which sits over the front fork. The fluid was leaking from the lever NOT the caliper.!!

  9. Buy 18" motorcycle inner tube slit and stretch over the rim (getto style). Bomb proof just build up rim close to edge of the rim to stop the tyre from slipping into the middle of the rim.
  10. Made this knife on a course in Belfast "Heaven Forge". Started with a piece of steel 60x20x6mm ended up with this. Heated hammered into shape and final grinding. Two and half days of amazing techniques. Blacksmithing to leather work.
  11. Suburban boom gates policy approved February 3 2014 at 10:02am By ANNA COX Comment on this story http://www.iol.co.za/polopoly_fs/copy-of-st-boomgate-533-39690750-1.1640852!/image/2581299977.jpg_gen/derivatives/box_300/2581299977.jpgTHE STARThis security boom in Malanshof, Randburg, is a bone of contention among residents, some of whom refuse to contribute to its cost. The council has now cleared up grey areas in its boom policy. Picture: Motshwari MofokengJohannesburg - Joburg motorists visiting suburbs with boomed-off areas can no longer be forced to sign in or identify themselves before entering public roads. A new policy for road closures was approved by the City of Joburg last week. The policy becomes effective within 30 days. Residents of suburbs, particularly in wealthy areas, began closing off public roads with boom gates in 2001 following increasing incidents of crime. An initial policy was formulated in 2003 but was never approved. Instead, the Johannesburg Roads Agency (JRA) dealt with applications on a case-by-case basis. According to the new policy: * No electronic devices such as remote controls may be used. * One gate has to be manned 24-hours a day, with full, free vehicular and pedestrian access; other gates may have limited hours of operation, but need to be accessible 24 hours a day. * A resident who chooses not to be a part of the group may not be prejudiced in any way. * All gates must have 24-hour pedestrian access with wheelchair accessibility and, in case of an emergency, all gates must be able to open. * Security staff can only monitor activity – they may not search vehicles or people, or ask them to fill in a register or ask for any personal information, nor may security staff cause delay for other motorists. * No private lock can be placed on these gates; and * Plans for closures have to be submitted, and proper warning signs have to be erected. In addition, time frames have now been put in place for almost every step of the procedure, which is likely to facilitate approvals that, in the past, were delayed for years. In the past, the road closure issue has caused divisions among communities, with unhappy residents breaking down booms with their cars in protest . In Malanshof, where non-paying residents are refused a remote control to some gates, the community is constantly at war . The JRA started tearing down some of the booms around 2004, much to the fury of residents who claimed they had a right to protect themselves. The JRA then agreed to allow those already boomed off to remain closed, though the applications were never formally approved. The JRA says there are about 350 closures in the city. “Anyone who fails to enter into, or contravenes the terms and conditions of the policy or neglects to remove illegal structures becomes subject to the Promotion of Administrative Justice Act, and the closures will be removed in terms of the road and other by-laws,” said JRA spokesman Sam Modiba. DA transport spokesman Nico de Jager said the new policy was more user-friendly than before with clear time frames that even the SAPS must abide by. If they fail to, the applications can go ahead. “In the past, an application could take months and even years to be concluded, often due to lack of co-operation from the SAPS. Applicants were required to submit a very costly traffic impact study when they first applied, as well as when they reapplied. In terms of the revised policy, such a study will no longer be required on reapplication. “Although residents should not be seen as living in pockets, creating a further divide between rich and poor, there can also be no price on the right to feeling safe in one’s home,” said De Jager. anna.cox@inl.co.za The Star http://www.joburg.org.za/images/stories/2012/August/security%20access%20restriction%20policy.pdf
  12. After a very traumatic ride on Saturday where one of our group members passed away of a presumed heart attack it has lead me to believe we all need to be a little more informed on emergency procedures. Even though CPR procedures were followed none of us really new to what extent the trauma was. As a group or just riding with a buddy one should have ICE numbers in your phone along with emergency numbers ie. 911 SAPS etc. Most times we are out on a trail somewhere far out with no way of relaying direction and this where a GPS would be handy and knowing exactly how to get your co-ordinates in a calm (panic) situation. We all want to be technically skilled in fixing bikes and riding by doing courses but have never thought about doing a full-on first aid course. So my questing is where can one do a first aid course with enough knowledge to provide care until real help arrives?
  13. Join our group from M&B Carlsworld shopping centre at 06:00 on Saturdays. You will learn the routes in the area. You are welcome to join us.
