    rain will help put the fires out and it will test the stability of Chappies.

    at this point in time that concern is not that section of Chapmans Peak as the fire is not burning where the catch fencing is. IF they can get the Noordhaven fire under control then the south slope of Chappies is safe. The big concerns is the clean up operations and has the tarmac been damaged as these are harder to repair in a few days. At this stage I fee there is a good chance we will ride on the original planned route

    Alternative route could take us back to fish hoek and back via boyes drive and M3 home

    the business model is too displace regular store volume to concept stores because they believe that's what a Spaz owner wants. So they use the regular stores to grow their brand and then ditch them and create competition against those very stores. the process of moving to a concept store is an all or nothing approach and they dictate terms to which you the store owner hand them a tub of Vaseline.

    no in SA buts there's Concept stores in Dubai and the Netherlands as far as I know

    Go buy a concept store owner a beer after the shop has been converted for more than a year...
  7. GoLefty!!
    I don't see the broader context of what is being said there. That is just an exerpt
  8. GoLefty!!
    Whose hating, you completley misinterpret my statement. They're a great store but being a concept store brings pitfalls...

    get over it. Its not your money. Its not our money, It belongs to the organisation. All they are accountable for is how the money is utilised to fullfil the orgs mandate. Somehow you have the idea we are shareholders in PPA. You're very mistaken if you do. We, the members, are beneficiaries, therefore we are not entitled to it. Its a bit like insurance. As long as the money is not being used for a fire pool, or security upgrades at the GM's or EXCO's homes, or flashy new bikes for the EXCO then its up to us as members to come up with good solid business proposals on how that money can be put to good use. If there is suddenly a tabled proposal to pay the money out to trusts or organisations then I want full traceability on that cash. They're spending it wisely on MTB trails. Sure I'd like to see some good business plans for development teams, schoools cycling educatin programmes and maybe even a overhaul of the EXCO and Office org structures ,etc but its up to me and you and others like us to come up with responsible ways to spend that cash. That was always the intent, including a slush fund for legal cases. CSA must raise its own money through responsile management. That has not been demonstrated to date. Besides, how incompetent must you be to go knocking on a subsidriaries door looking for a handout. Imagine Porsche has to ask VW for a bail out........eish I'll watch the episode on 412

  13. GoLefty!!
    PPA is a business, a non profit business. Get over it.
  14. GoLefty!!

  15. GoLefty!!

  16. GoLefty!!
    But only for csa members. I don't have a csa license and don't need one permanently.
  17. GoLefty!!
    Somehow I don't believe the csa "we want the money " campaign is over. This is just ceasefire for good pr

  21. GoLefty!!

  22. GoLefty!!
    I CAN SEE THE ADVERT NOW: Picture this.: A herd of mountain bikers all hitched up to a disselboom towing a Landy with Dr Evil on the roof cracking the whip.
  23. GoLefty!!
    they don't have to cos there's a new one waiting at the bottom of the hill
  24. GoLefty!!
    hope they have lots of spare diffs
  25. GoLefty!!
    seems like a pretty good idea for those folks who like to ride marathons. should rather be a solid carbon fibre aero box on there. Will look nicer and save 5Watts of power
