    Cricket......

    Yip. It looks like they let Goolam Bodi into the change room during lunch..
  2. If you were on the Spruit, it is unlikely to have been mud..........
  3. Breedt's nek....
  4. Pick me, pick me !!!!!
  5. After a day playing and swimming with the children and cousins, Ranger is now dog tired. ....
  6. Last ride on Tuesday
  7. ThĂȘ bag is a brilliant piece of kit. It sat rock solid the whole way. Did not move an inch and was completely unnoticeable on the ride. Never got in the way. I will definitely be buying one.
  8. Seweweekspoort. .......
  9. Near Red stone hills Calitzdorp.
  10. Did he say he built them? He is talking hogwash. He sent them to Johan Bornman to build which is why Jason only needed an hour to sort them......
  11. IT FELL OVER, OK? And I was too stuffed to go and pick it up. In my defence though, it was leaning against the bushes and the drive chain was suspended off the ground. But, you are right, I saw it too and slapped myself against the head.
  12. I bought a set of Hopes with braided Goodrich hoses from a Hubber and haven't had a chance to shorten them. Will fix asap, but at least the brakes worked going down there. .....
  13. Swartberg pass
  14. Would have loved to have joined you guys, but I missed the entry date cut-off......
  15. Could be, mine is Colnago tape, embossed with an imprint. A black bike is nice, but I think it ahould be limited to the frame. Picture the first bike with less black covering the curves. ......
  16. How do I get mine to look like that ? I feel there is something missing but I just can't put my finger on it......
  17. Last year I ended up winning the Divernick Cotic auction after the 947. On Thursday I cycled to to my wife's office and left my bike there overnight as I was off to Cape Town. I got a call from Mrs Eddy yesterday asking whose orange Simple was parked in her office. She then told me she had never seen such a beautiful bike in her life and why had I not shown it to her before. It is not as if it is discreet, so I figured out it must have been because I have been slack and not riding enough. I took it for a two hour workout on the Spruit this morning. I loved it and I suspect that it is the jump start I needed to get back on the bike again.

    Cricket......

    I wonder whether a WK/batsman coming in at no 6 or 7 as Dane Vilas has done, has ever matched his record of conceding more byes that scoring runs in a series ?

  20. Why, oh why must this be on the same weekend of the 94.7? Maybe next year I won't just settle for the one close to home although 94.7 is one of only 2 road races I do each year; on a SS MTB.....

    I have to disagree. Training with v12man does not make it any easier racing together If anyone is in doubt what the v12 stands for, try chasing him up a hill when all you have to offer is a 50cc single.

    The I-Team

    You are right, and it always tickles me because getting dropped up the first hill is the surest way of ensuring a time slower than your potential. Your best time is in a group where you can (just) stay with the group up the hills and hang in not completely comfortably on the flats. Maybe do one pull just to prove you are not a complete freeloader.

    The I-Team

    No, but maybe there should be a sub 3 bus starting at the front, a sub 3:15 bus starting a bit further back and a sub 3:30 bus even further back. All groups go out under the control of a strong cyclist who has worked out the pacing. If someone drops off, hop onto the next bus.

    Who remembers?

    So you are a married man now......
  25. Cruel and inhumane punishment. I am sure it is against the constitution....
