  1. I asked them and they said they only doing the run at the end of the month, so Argus not taken into account yet. We do not have the new numbers as yet, we will only be posting them as of the end of July. The new annual seeding run has not taken place yet, this will also only be done at the end of the month. You can pay your subs now already it’s just we won’t have a number for you.
  2. There are so many negative Contador threads , I agree that the people who create these must feel very threatened for their favourites, by the great rider. I hope he has his climbing legs and will be able to challenge for the Yellow Jersey, besides it being great entertainment for us mere mortals, if he manages to get up there this year with all the bad luck and negative sentiments, it must mean he is true champion. I agree that just the way he had handled eveything to date already puts him in a class of his own. The fact is that it would had to take a very tough Giro to actually bring him down to the level of the other challengers. Nobody else in the current Peloton would not or could not even attempt it.
  3. The fact that there was a crash and a hold up, had nothing to with Conatdors abaility to win, that was just bad luck. I think you right Contador off too soon, but you will learn that the hard way
  4. Thats great news, these ladies make us proud.
  5. Does anyone know where we can get the Rangers numbers from? or which numbers we supposed to call, it looks like thats what Craig Irving tried to do: “What concerned me at the time was that SANParks did absolutely nothing and the police arrived an hour later,” he said. “The main question I have is: ‘Who’s accountable?”

  7. Really sorry to hear this, I have on many occasion been tempted to ride the trail alone, these days I only go If I know there is at least 2 of us riding, but your account above is scary even if its 2 of you, faced in that same situation you probably dont want to risk being stabbed for any material things. Very sad state of affairs. Makes you realise how big the mountain is, when you need help, often its a long way to anyone who can hear you.
  8. Whoops got my facts mixed up it was not that one Mampara, so with shipping and duties probably going to be around 2500, and the CRC option may work out cheaper coz buying with a buddy and save shipping.
  9. Yip , false advertising, I called them and the call center guy asked me if I want the unit or the bundle then he gave me the different prices, I should let them know about the consumer protection act.
  10. How much duties can you expect to pay on this if you import it?
  11. Thanks checked them out that is just for the unit, when you call to find out then they tell you the bundle costs 2800 or 2789
  12. Hi Where did you buy your Garmin Edge 500 bundle from and what did you pay? Best price I have found is off CRC and it looks like it will come to 2400 with duties, no shipping because buying with a freind so we will take 2 units.
  13. I dont get it man, what has he been doing all this time, preparing for the Tour?, surely by now he should have found his rythm. I would exepect him and Shleck to be coming to form now and peaking in these small tours.
  14. Hi I took some pics of the boards when I went the first time, looked at them now, they so say some parts are downhill , there are no arrows or anything like that, maybe that is what is causing some of the confusion in terms of markings. see the pics I took
  15. Thanks allot will try those, also my back brake
  16. So enjoying the Mtb, still a novice on the downhills and use the brakes allot, I find that they are very noisy though, is there a way to clean disk brakes or how do you remedy noisy brakes?
  17. I ride with both First Ascent Revolution and Cape Storm Matrix Bibs, out of the two I prefer the First Ascent but I actually dont like either, I bought them to test out and use them for my short rides into work and back. They cant compare to my Nalini Bibs for comfort etc... Nalini, Castelli, and host of other good brands are quite close in price to these bibs, you should shop around.
  18. Hamilton response to the 500 tests not coming up with one positive was that the tests were flawed and in certain instance the results were changed
  19. Also do the same, you almost feel like something is missing when your ride the lighter race bike
  20. I started watching this last night and must concur with the comments above, was boring. Even the commentary by Phil and Paul could not keep me interested, got so into the action at the Giro cant wait to watch todays stage again. I see Nibali is saying he hopes to put a dent in the lead Contador has over him. Now where is that Giro thread...
  21. Good going man, hope you get all your stuff back.
