  1. aaah thanx...now i get it.
  2. There was also an attempted Robbery at the Common ground Constantia church which is by the stone church in Tokai next to the wine farmes. I'll find out details and get back to you on that. They may be connected.
  3. Whiskey, Bravo, and Charlie are used by the neighbourhood watch and Security companies to describe people on open channels. It's not meant to be offensive but rather the opposite.
  4. oh thanks. The last 2 i understood and saved me from googling!! =)!!!
  5. That little gold on/off switcvh on an XTR M985 RD...what does that do????
  6. Thanx Flowta, fascinating that Sram with Shimano rear. How about a Sram 9 speed shifter with a Sram 10 speed rera derailleur??
  7. Hi all, i think the tital explains itself. here's a long shot but can an XTR 9 speed shifter work with an XTR 10 speed rear derailleur or are the ratios just too different? Wondering if i can upgrade slowly in pieces or all at once. JB i'll be interested in your take on this . Thanx all.
  8. Motivation...how about cancer from all the crap in processed foods? Want to see yuor kids grow up then change your habits. Try having a smoorthie for breakfast. i make a 500ml smoothie with milk, whey,beetroot,goji berries, dates,raw oats,oat bran,spinach, different seeds, sometimes yoghurt added in but usually water. and then drink a big glass of water afterwards. Keeps me energetic till lunch. Then the rest of the day, more veg, less carbs and less meat because now you wont be able to afford meat. and most important, no snacking inbetween on crap. get some ricecakes.
  9. Easton for sure, but the replacement rims are specific and expensive at best. Definitely prefer Eastons over Xt though. Have a set of XC ones and brilliant for years.
  10. Hey all, Apparently they recovered a blue and gold stolen bike in Hout Bay today.Didnt say what make or model but it's a MTB. If your's was stolen check with hout bay SAPS.
  11. the bike age always helps.
  12. Geez hope that carbon 29er of yours is OK!!
  13. What time was that? We live in Hout Bay and didnt hear a thing. Usually we see the heli and hear it over the watchcon radio.
  14. Ja, guys need to respect the trail is for everyone, so why not be nice and both slow down and give way for each other??
  15. No, be clever about it. Tell the guy you'll sell it on consignment. Phone the cops and owner and get the bike back to him. Then arrange for a sting op when the thief comes back they can nab him...or the owner can with his van full of guys in balaclavas...er hem.
  16. Nikon D5100 70-200 VR lens ISO 2800 1/500 f5.3 Love this pic taken at ADDO Spekboom tented camp hide at 18.35 in September. It looks just like a cartoon.

  24. I dont use the shop in Hout Bay anymore since they replaced my brakes after they were supposed to fix my broken seal and charged me full price for the new set,.....and kept my old brake set.....bad business practice if you ask me. Havent been back since.
