My ride yesterday at the Queenstown gamepark - home movie https://youtu.be/SEBVydxZVy8

My last CRC parcel spent almost 3 weeks at Customs in January/February. Useless bunch!!

All of you with special glasses that can see into the future, please stop the bus on the spot. Lets wait for the verdict and stop this game of speculating. Leave this "skinder or gossip stories " to the old ladies in the small towns that do not have anything else to say, in order to feel good about themselves and how bad everyone else is. Lets leave this matter untill the UCI provides us with a Press Release. I am sure mr C also has legal rights when people defame him in public, without having facts. (there has been numerous court cases about FB lately) (i am not connected to him in anyway, but feel that this matter needs to be handled with sensitivity, untill all the facts are on the table)

I am looking for 2x "Karoo to coast entries" please, if anyone can assist? contact: 0605779667

From my experience being part of the Health care industry i can only say 1 thing - negotiate , negotiate and negotiate prices and charges. If you don't then expect to pay maximum. The healthcare professionals wait weeks and months to get paid by most medical aids, meanwhile the merc and holiday home needs to be paid for. Private and medical aid patients get charged levies or extra fees to keep the cash flow going. If you have to have an operation, ask whether the anesthetist or surgeon or x-ray department or laboratory or even the hospital, is contracted in or out to medical aid fees BEFORE ANY SERVICE IS RENDERED. If the anesthetist is contracted out, ask the surgeon to use another person or negotiate directly with the anesthetist before the procedure, to not have to pay above the medical aid rates. If you are scared to speak to the doctor, then pay up and keep quiet. a Doctor is a person like you and me and they will negotiate with you, if you state your reasons or financial situation to them,as it is. Business is business today!!

Anybody doing the Grahamstown to Sea MTB event 13/7/2014 ? I believe its a nice fast ride . http://www.roag.co.z...town-2-sea.aspx http://cmgorha1.wix.com/grahamstown2sea

Which mountain bikers are getting financial support from Cycling SA, to assist them in preparing for the next Olympics? Have we got a structured plan to get them on the podium? Are they currently the best prospects to achieve for SA at this Olympics XC race, or just to represent SA? just curious................

It is good for mountain biking to have another lady joining the "fat tyre peloton". Our ladies need competition to get better. Well done Anriette!! 1 Science2Sport / Meccer Solo Female Anriette Schoeman 323-2 9:53:22.856 -

It would be very nice if somebody can start a Facebook page, where all cyclist that have taken pictures over the years of Burry, can post it in remembrance of this LEGEND. Lets only stick to pictures and no long messages please, as it is a specific request. Perhaps somebody can then even print a book of Burry Stander live in pictures from when he started cycling, until today. It will help us to celebrate his wonderful life. He Achieved more in 25 years, than most of people will achieve in a lifetime

I have sympathy with you but bashing the supplier, will not get you anywhere. You should rather have mentioned your story and suggested that everybody with a similar fork, should have it checked out immediately for cracks or material failure. As a matter of fact, Omnico or Cannondale should recall all similar forks for a checkup, similar to what Toyota etc had to do a while ago to show that in this instance rider safety, is crucial to them. Anything less would be seen as how much $$$ can they make out of riders, and not care about safety issues. Perhaps somebody must design an airbag linked to your helmet and Camelbag, to improve rider safety hehe

i use version 3 - works great

But why do they break the laws? We need to establish how it was obtained, and who is prepared to ignore medicine laws to the detriment of cycling and society as a whole. Any bad apples must be removed before more lives are destroyed!

I feel that the doctor or pharmacist involved with the EPO scandal should be identified by the hawks, and then named and shamed by losing their medical registration to practice in SA. We don't need these guys on the street to embarrass cycling or SA, or to feed our kids with enhancement drugs. What happened to those doctors involved with Lance (Dr Ferrari) , should also happen here. I beg the minister of Sport and Health to get the Hawks to do a full investigation from A to Z to clean up cycling, by making examples of these "medical drug lords". Using enhancement drugs makes a person a fraudster and a cheat, and we should have zero tolerance! What do you think?

This will open a can of worms if it happens - cost implications for those youngsters with big wheels already. It will be good for the bike industry however, as they will sell more bikes, as riders will upsize at some stage.

Has anybody heard of this rumour that all mtb riders below u23 age mtb categories, maybe restricted to 26" and 27.5" bikes in the future? Got told at a bike shop the other day about this and that emails are flying around about the possibility. Is it nonsense? I think it would be good to restrict them similarly to the road cycling juniors, using restricted gears. As far as i am concerned its even more difficult or damaging to the legs of the youngsters on a mountain bike having all the gears available to them. Distance rules should also be strictly enforced to protect them..
