  1. Newtown Trials ride, Sunday 26th 09:00 Meeting at the Market Theatre parking, corner of Carr and Mariam Makeba, check out the map below http://www.newtown.co.za/images/map/newtown_map_2008.jpg
  2. If you think Mango is an option give it a skip. ok granted i didnt put my bike in a box and a bullet proof container but then i thought they might actually have some respect for passengers items.......VERY STUPID of me. not sure where or when but the bike was dropped/thrown pretty hard and slid several meters on something rough. This happened at the start of the month and have got to no conclusion with them, nothing is insured if you buy ticket you must pay extra and do research into it.... so much for making traveling easy and cheap

  8. sweeeeeeeet hopefully i will be riding a bit better than last time.
  9. The gap is 1.3m but it drops 2-3 pallets height so will be fairly easy to go down but tough to get up, there are lots of other nice gaps thou. I want to organise a group ride with all you guys from PTA there, tell me when suits you best.
  10. 40 odd hours later and its eventually finished, if this doesn't get ppl into Trials I don't know what will. it is THE PLAYGROUND see you there
  11. 205!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bloody ridiculous Its a bicycle not a TRUCK!
  12. Your pics are a little out of focus, the bike would look alot cooler if you could see it just finished doing some upgrades on mine, hopefully they work properly
  13. there is a fairly new skate park in Sunninghill, awesome foam pit and park to ride. we should really organise some group rides, does everyone use FB
  14. There is always the Hector Norris BMX track for R5. I seriously think the prices are way too high. My time at Logwood is done, unless i hear they do some serious work on the NS and berms, the 45min drive and R50 is not worth it. As for the new park, I will definately try it once but then will see if its really worth the cash. I honestly think if the prices were lower they would get alot more ppl going more frequently, I for one would.
  15. is there a race or something happening on sunday. I was running a single speed for a while bit i just used the normal spacers and fixed the deraylor in position.
  16. Dunno hey, could be cool but the fork angle is a bit steep!!!!
  17. I would just like to say BIG UPPS to the MTB community. Thankfully to a very kind Lady (really sorry i suck with names), a regular at Northern farm that took my wheel home on sat, that it has now been safely returned to me. hopefully i will not do this again, wow i feel dumb
  18. I am still amazed at my stupidity, yes i forgot the wheel !!! Driving over it would suck big time also thou. Iv contacted and told everyone i can, hopefully word will spread. The car parked next to us was a new VW Beetle, white with a daisy (yellow flower) on the dashboard. Hopefully they might know where the wheel is, they left shortly after i did.
