  1. I think the 20 will cannibalize the 500 while the 25 will cannibalize the 510. The 25 and the Fenix 3 are both in my wish list.
  2. Might I say that "the golden rule" should be a moral guide in all dealings. Although some people are so morally depraved that even this rule may falter in some instances! "Do to others what you would have them do to you"
  3. I try...
  4. Oh look, 222 posts! only 778 to go before I make the Rouxtjie approval mark.
  5. Correct. A contract comes into being with the meeting of the minds (or agreement). This is generally accepted to have been achieved when there is an offer (seller) and acceptance (buyer) of the offer. in other words, an accepted offer constitutes a contract.
  6. That was amazing. Total commitment to the line and the jumps!
  7. I was in the Specialized Concept store that opened in Somerset West a couple of years ago. While I'm not against the brand, I am against the snobbery that was obvious. I hope they don't become like that... Is that store still open?
  8. Definitely the wrong forum but... I am wanting to get a MTB this year. Being a roadie only until now makes choosing a bike quite interesting. Forgive my MTB ignorance but what is the difference between the Trance, the Anthem and the Scott Spark, (other than the names of course)? At this stage I think I want a pretty all-round bike but I am quite confused. I don't understand the differences at to Trail, XC, Enduro. I thought it was all just mountain biking - obviously its not that simple!
  9. Vertical stripes are supposed to make people look thinner aren't they? Maybe the team bosses thought they looked fat? who knows...
  10. Awesome bike! I had a black one from 1988 or so. It was branded Peugeot though... It was part of an involuntary re-distribution of my goods unfortunately!
  11. I think you are correct. Believe it or not I have a Hansom tandem that dates back to the 1980's!
  12. Zini was my first "proper" road bike. They were produced for Deale & Huth when it was owned by Basil Cohen. There is a thread on one of the forums with much of the history of Deale & Huth and Basil Cohen - He unfortunately passed away. He was also involved in the Alpina brand. Remember those?
  13. The bike!
  14. From the thingy they dump them out in to count. I guess from the spatula thingy as well.
  15. Maybe the commentator was also a pharmacist in SA?
  16. Amazing have Daryl back in the saddle - racing.
  17. Will do my best to remember!
  18. I felt that I should post a RAVE for adriandup who transported a bike from Cape Town to Joburg for me totally FREE! The bike in question is a Somec (Columbus SLX steel) that my Dad bought at Mike's Deale & Huth in around 1989. My Dad died in 2012 and the bike (for a strange technical reason) went to live with my sister in Cape Town and has gathered dust and rust since then. I am really pleased to have it with me and will now start the delicate task of restoring it to its former glory. adriandup, to you my friend! I will look for AquaBella spring water from now on and hope that many other Hubbers follow suite!
  19. Very cool advert.
  20. +1!!
