  1. The item below was dropped in the bushes at Tokai on the climb up to Mamba. http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r251/mss-65/20140613_122854_zps866f9fa4.jpg Please get hold of me so that I can personally hand it back. I mean seriously what sort of fully functioning adult actually thinks its okay to throw punctured tubes away in a nature conservation area? And we wonder why Parks and other user groups get upset with us...
  2. Tokai on a stunning winters day
  3. Dont forget the horse riders. Had to ask two of them to turn back from Fairy Garden today, which to be fair to them they did. There could be an interesting collision one day where a runner is found under the body of a horse thats been impaled with a mtb. The riders of the horse and bike will be found close by arguing over who cleans up the mess.
  4. Remember its only fun until somebody gets hurt, then its hysterical fun.
  5. Some nice work up there and it seems to have held up well to the rain so far.
  6. Normally put two complete bikes standing in the back of the landy but on the days when I remember what petrol costs I take a tin opener to the wifes 206. Have managed to fit both bikes, three people and a shed load of shopping into that little shoebox. Drop the larger section of the back seat and remove bikes front wheels. Seperate the bikes with an old judo mat and await hissy fit when wife sees all the mud in the car. Works like a charm.
  7. Sorry I got there so late - will try harder next time.
  8. How the hell did this explode? The answer is simple. Kidnap some runners and use them as a forced labour chain gang on the next build day. The ones that have been forced to work gain an appreciation of the work that goes into making an maintaining the tracks and the rest will be terrified of being next on the chain gang. Free labour and awareness all in one. Its a winner I tell you...
  9. You simply cannot compare the two situations.There is a time and place to put it all on the line and while your example probably is one of those times what happened in the robbery that started this thread is not.
  10. Pretty sure its a choice of a medal or the wine this year.
  11. There is always a self defence option but boy you better be well trained, have a mean streak a mile wide and practice a hell of a lot when the odds are against you like that. If it goes wrong you just dont get to try again ever.
  12. I was working on the assumptipn that Momsen didnt have the advertising and PR budget akin to that of an oil emirate. Unlike Specialized who can spend with the best of them.
  13. Help me out a bit here, what does it say?
  14. Oh I dont know about that, its my ambition in life to live long enough to become an expensive time consuming burden to my kids. Payback time!
  15. No they dont, I know of lots of small businesses that got off the ground with bank financing.
  16. That comment made me twitch too.
  17. How csn you possibly justify saying that on this of all threads?Clearly its the one forty Pascoe that you need...
  18. Doesn't that really depend on how many putch up for the build day?
  19. Only if you have one for everyone...
  20. The exact same frame (matching paint job included) by the looks of things.
  21. Which trail is being worked on?No worries with my tools - easy to see the ones that look brand new and unused
  22. Bet its his birthday all day really How old will he be?
  23. There was a thread about 26 v 29 around here somewhere, that whole thing provides some pretty stiff competition for that.
  24. To be fair Mamba has had a lot of wheels through there over the last few months and the work on Vasbyt is basically brand new.Maybe Vasbyt being lower on the mountain helps too?
  25. Right hand corner on Mamba? I thought you neutered yourself on the left hander?
