  1. Not sure if Lanseria is far for you but this would be a good start, https://www.sundowner.co.za/offers/beginners-fly-fishing-lesson/
  2. I've used Ardent in front and Ikons at the back, great combo for XC. Now using Schwalbe Nobby Nic in front and Racing Ralph in the back, also great combo, need to use the snakeskin version though for some protection.
  3. I also had a great experience with Cycle lab Woodmead ordered a conversion kit for my bike, they didn't have the part and ordered from supplier, they kept me informed regularly on the progress of my order, was a pleasure to deal with them.
  4. Thank you Captain, sorry will this be done automatically or must i request for it to be migrated, i received no communique from Disco. Thx once again.
  5. Hi guys do you know if a Discovery Credit Card qualifies as a Disco bank account for gym booster?
  6. Hi went to Sterkfontein dam last week to catch some yellow gold, was tough and had to work hard for the fish. Landed some lekker yellows on nymph and one on a beetle.
  7. Hi Blitzer, on the Ardent did you ride a 2.25 or 2.4 in front? I need a new front tyre and was wondering if the 2.4 will make the bike slower due to it being chunkier. I ride mainly XC, and understand the benefits of the wider tyre for better grip but will it handicap you for rolling speed? Thx
  8. Went to the Bushmans river this pass weekend for some fly fishing for wild trout in the DrakensbergFishing was generally tough with the river flowing high with the recent rains, i only managed to catch two fish the whole weekend which is much less than my previous visits, not sure if there are just less fish in the river or if the conditions were just crap. I did manage to catch my PB brownie so was really chuffed as it made my weekend.
  9. Thanks for the reccomendation guys, i need to try and source a set of the Quaxar pads from here is Jhb, Cyclosport only stocks the semi-metalic Elixer pads.
  10. Hi guys, i currently fish the vaal river and thinking of getting a 10 footer 5 weight, any options/reccomendations for a rod decent rod under R2k? I tried my mates Stealth bomber but felt it too stiff for my liking. Thx
  11. Hi Rocket Boy what make of pads did you use? I need to change mine but the Avid replacement pads are like over R300. I saw other generic makes which are cheaper but not sure on their quality or performance. Anyone can reccomend a good aftermarket brand of disc pads?
  12. Hi i've been there, is this the Royal Natal Park, didnt know there trout in that river? I hope to fish the Bushmans river in April.
  13. Yip Vaal is fishin good at the moment, i fished Arens Nes on Sunday got a few fish as well, lost plenty as the hooks opened, need to learn to tie some of my own flies on decent hooks.
  14. Ok cool i will be keen, will send you a PM with my details.
  15. Hi Scott/Peach if at Thaba i will be keen, depending of the dates of course, but please keep me in mind. Thx
  16. Was a good race with great weather, thank god for that. Anyone have the details of bike service dude that was set-up near the start? I lost his contact card, i know he is from the Pretoria area.
