Has anyone done Sani on SS? Asume answer will be yes. I have finally gotten a ticket to ride. Partner is cool with me wanting to do it on a SS. Is it worth doing it or should I just stick with normal bike? If so, what gear ratio will do the trick? Now I just need to start saving for one of those blingie bikes thats been flashed around

The avo one :-)

I see the Hairy bunch is growing. Beats cycling alone

Ek is nou amper reg om te huil. Oh, maar dis vrek mooi

Cool! I know that face. The guy with the heaviest cummuting bike around but also the friendliest? Maybe all the sourfaces each morning sould take note :-)

I use it daily, sometimes with company, but mostly alone and haven't had any issues. I will not use the N1 because there is already enough bmw, audi and fortunner drivers that tries to kill you. Taxis and busses I can deal with

Depending on were you bord your train, you might have to pay R10 extra for the bike (or not ;-) ). Entering or exiting at Cape Town station, you will pay Whatever you do, either lock the bike onto a pole inside the train or sit on top of it. Most spacious place is to bord right behand the train driver, otherwise people bump into you all the time

Remember that what the chiro do mostly involves your spine. If your muscles are the problem, then no amount of chiro work will solve it unless they also solve the muscle issue. The muscles will just pull your neck / back out of alignment. My chiro also do dry-needling if he finds any musle spasms. But a physio is better qualified to solve these muscle / fascia issues. They work hand-in-hand. No use solving the one problem and not the other PM me is you want his number (Durbanville)

Remember that formulas are used to calculate those values. And it is based on averages from previous surveys. Your final position might differ from those supplied. No formula is perfect for everybody. Only you yourself can determine if you are comfortable or not

Accept for my Fox baggies, my Assos investments are the best shorts I have (oh, and my old-school leather shammies) Honestly I find that Panda shammies to thick and the bib to warm for summer The FTech bibs are good and Anatomic ok Don't know about Veltex All depend on the usage

Cool. Will contact them

I am sorry to highjack your request but what is your impression about the Speedplay pedals? I'm considering buying but since nobody sells them it will have to be via the internetweb. Where did you buy? Anybody maybe have impressions on the Speedplay frogs for mtb?

As long as everything works, you can do it on a R4000 second-hand bike

Unless you want to compromise on things like your frame and fork (cranks, bar-ends, etc), how do you expect to seriously loose weight on you bike? Just because you have always liked it doesn't mean it is going to cut it when you want lightweight. Money solve all weight issues (and maybe laxatives :-) )

3 inches :-)

What about a Scalpel? I have ridden the Specialized 29er that was far (and I mean far) to big for me and it still rode beatifully (incuding rockey singletracks, etc). For 29ers you might have issues finding components and stuff in ZA (think tires here). Ride the different bikes and make your choice. You will know when it is the right fit for you
