SP, you paying fines???

Sounds like fun, but I think it would be better if we leave the cyclists off the route for the day! Some buzzing would be called for, ESPECIALLY Isuzu bakkies, and maybe some new helmet ornaments O ja, Pantani, you planning on scraping those sliders or you just a POSER in your leathers???? ewep2010-01-15 14:45:29

OK, from a "fool around" cyclist perspective (read fat and overweight and riding too little!) I find it a sad day when anyone tells me in this country that I am not welcome on a PUBLIC road! And if I dare ride there I will be putting my own life in danger. Secondly, from a bikers point of view, why oh why does Mr Plez, the Cradle DING and Mr X not try this type of SHYTE with patch wearing bikers? Why oh why do they try to take it out on cyclists. Guys and gals, easy, because you go and drink coffee. If they try that type of crap with a patch wearing biker they'll become a helmet ornament because the person will have a helmet stuck up their ass!!!!! Violence doesn't solve everything, but, as I was told in school, a hiding or two always helps. OK, SP, so when we going riding. Got the knee sliders on. Only left on scraped as yet....

OK, update on the petition, the TB committee is going to do it the right way. We might all be "up in arms", but behind this there is a broken family. So please bear with them. They want to do it the right way!

I agree paulvs' date=' some of us bikers are dodgy. Remember, TB bibs can be bought everywhere (flippit, even on street corners!!). Another thing, TB is a campaign, not a policing setup. TB advocates safe riding to bikers. If they ignore it, how do you force them to listen? Your statement can be turned around as "I don't have much time for cyclists as they always skip traffic lights". Same thing, is it not? Easy way to sort out the TB guys that peeve you off is to get the reg no and PM me or Slowpoke, we can find out who it is. Last question, aren't you maybe a bit peeved that we don't have to sit in traffic??? Me, FAT? NEVER!!!! Just a bit "over inflated". I'm not called Pieman for nothing!! Baie waar oom H. Soos ek bo gese het, dis maklik om te veralgemeen. Mens gaan natuurlik ducktails kry wat mal gaan. Maar ons probeer dit te keer. Maar wees eerlik oom H (siegende dat oom ook uit die vroe? 20's van die vorige eeu kom ) het ons lot ducktails nie dalk al 'n bietjie verbeter nie?

I don't know whether this has been discussed, and I'm too lazy too look for it. One of the tandems in Sunday's race allowed the pilot and stoker to pedal at different angles and what looked like different cadences. Is this possible???? How does it work?

epoh, thanks, maar ek sal eers my gaai in rat moet kry en begin train!!! Maar dit sal Dinsdag begin, dis my D-Date.

I can take it up on my trailer' date=' but can't gaurantee it will get back to your house[/quote'] Mate, will drop and pick up! Just remember, it's not hte 'dale!!!

Anyone that'll be able to take my bike up to LT for me please. I want to do the ride up on the motorbike.

I was scared that if I fell into a pothole I wouldn't get out!!! The first part of the route was horrendous!

I marshalled these okes. What a nice day out, and some VERY hard riding!

Typical South African market trend. You build up a fan base/large selling base, get the customer hooked and then NAIL them!

I thought they live inside my TV!!!!

I fully agree on all you say above. I was purely stating that a lot of medical practitioners (all fields!!!) aren't always the saints they want to be seen as! I have a wife who is/was a nursing sister, so I know about December standby, night shifts, long hours, coming home late because of resus etc. I know you know her as I've just realised who you are. I will PM you shortly.

Eish, he sent me a pic, but I didn't know it was THAT bad!!!!

wpdeb, you CLEARLY have a very sensitive outlook on this one. Soneone maybe touch a nerve?? But ok, you asked, here goes: 5 x "specialists" (Neuro surgeons and orthopeadic surgeons) sending patients for x-raysthat was not needed. Decent kickbacks and the patient pays (even though indirectly through med/aid. Still my money). All 5 got off with a slap on the wrist (community work). 1 did the full thing, 1 did half, 2 ignored it and 1 ran away to Oz. There is another investigation going into one of the same docs, for the same sh|t. A well known doctor in the Vaal charging 3 times his private patient rate to medical aid clients. According to him it's not the patient that has to fork out, and anyway, why should he wait 10-15 working days for his money (even though after my visit he was paid within 3 working days). A doctor in Alberton (Brackendowns) prescribing meds to a patient that was not even for the condition (the sister happened to see it and the pharmacist confirmed). This is possible, except that the doc wanted to dispense the meds himself. A ortoped surgeon forcing patients to ICU when it's not needed for the patient & procedure combination. The patients stayed in ICU for 2 days and all docs and ICU staff agreed that it was not neccessary. Specialists charging patients for ops which they don't perform. The "assistant" for the op does the whole procedure while the specialist does rounds or sees patients at his practice. The patient/med-aid however gets charged for the specialist and the "assistant". Doctors forgetting to send bills to the medical aid. After warning the doc the patient is then held responsible for the bill 12-18 months AFTER the X-Rays. I did not mention any hospital or doc names. I however have all the names and for some cases the dates. ewep2008-11-21 00:59:39

Should I really go into this (I too have some knowledge about this!)

I didn't know you missed me THAT much!!!! Mate, serious note though, bloody well done on your time. GREAT improvement. How did you find the course? Some say it was tough, others (read my MD) told me max time that could be dropped was 8-10 mins!

STM' date=' I think the whole thread started as a joke (I might be wrong, I'm just a DUMB dutchman) Are you trying to tell me something!!!!???? Next time I'll be canning to like to moer you, but I'll baklei clean, I'll chrome my bike chain OK!

At least I did something!!!!! Unlike you, wheelsucking and nothing else. Why, was it hard????

Well maergat' date=' gaan lees!!! How can you call Muxie's wife fat. O, btw, mine will BLIKSEM you if you call her that to her face!!!!
