    they wanna sell what brings in money, if it doesnt sell it takes up valuable shelf space which could have been allocated to the next in line who might sell quite well. WW has always had a problem with mags & newspapers, because of the profit margin vs something like the sweets at the checkout rows... All about making the shareholders happy just like any other business

    I work in the magazine industry and the major retail groups are really getting very tough on the number of titles they stock. Space is a problem and we see new titles virtually every week... WW made a huge booboo by doing it this way. All they had to do was what they all normally do, delist the title based on sales. No one would have blinked and they would have walked away brand in tact etc... All that will happen now is that the titles will be delisted based on sales performance - give it 3 months.
  7. Glad you enjoyed it!! Also my first Shova, wish I had more route knowledge............ Drove over the route on the way down to Dbn on friday, but nothing beats riding it. Next time I hope to box a little more clever. Great challenge non the less.
  8. Aaaarrrggg no, is this the new LA, AC replacement thread? I'd say it was blind move by ML to put it on twitter, but no one knows what happened and he might be very sorry he did. Let he who makes no mistakes throw the first stone. Oh and MTN has pinched AB too....... plenty to sulk about
  9. Price?
  10. they seem to be selective in what they reply to.......... maybe time to find themselves a good pr co to assist maybe Julius M can join em!!
  11. maybe it was pissed off Lions supporters who wanted revenge after the loss against the Pumas
  12. Pretty much use these Friel principals as described here. Found that if I dont ride the days leading up to a race my legs feel really heavy and I battle for a long time to get into any kind of rhythm etc. So I would normally do an hour or so p/day on 2 days leading up to event. Include some short burst of speed to "introduce" the legs to what awaits them next day. More of a habit I suppose than actual scientific. No special things night before... Most sleep 2 nights before the race NB
  13. It has to do with roadworks, safety and EXPLRORING the inner Jhb city ??? Taxi assoc apparently also have a hand in the decision - so who rules who?
  14. my point exactly -
  15. whatever so frickin tired of all the negativity re just about everything on here doesnt matter how big or small a club is, just takes one idiot to do something really stupid and its the club.... dont think that's 100% fair, but be that as it may. you did as far as I am concerned, thats why you put it in your topic heading.... but lets not get into an argument about it, you have your opinion, I have mine. Then I will say its because the prick is from CT that he is brave enough to ride on the highway - fair?
  16. open cats will grow and racing cats will shrink ?
  17. pjnot@mweb.co.za - pse , tried CSA website earlier today, but to no avail
  18. why flame the club for one idiot who is on a suicide mission? bit unfair I would say. problem is no amount of communication will ever change that dudes attitude. they just get pissed off when talked to and leave for another club and continue doing stupid things....... Its like me saying he did it cause he lives in CT.. Guess an apology to Cycle lab members would be in order PROUD member - also at Heidelberg CL
