  1. Nibali's 1st attack covered by Froome, 2nd by Wiggins Go Sky
  2. Lido route in the south Jhb is well established.
  3. Could work
  4. Running would be my 1st choice but as my knees are cranky from my rugby days cycling is the next best thing that allows me to spend hours outdoors.
  5. Fuji Tahoe, LBS is out of Crossmarks UST tyres at the moment but they will be fitted when they get stock. The wheel reflectors have also been removed
  6. Go Lance
  7. Some kind of a sliding formula, for each meter short you get % entry fee back, if the route is longer than advertised you pay in the diffs or don't get a medal/results
  8. Iv'e had Dura Ace St'i's on my road bike for about 6 years and they are still in good shape, unlike me.
  9. Those tacks appear to have been thrown after the lead group went through, BMC particularly Evans appear to have been hit hard i counted his stopping 3x, Wiggins was not spared but he fortunately had the car following directly behind and swapped bikes quickly. Nice gesture of the main group to hold back, Sagan has gone up in my impression of him, showed lots of guts to not fall back on the mountain climbs. Cavendish also did a lot of early work on the climbs.
  10. Reason i suck at hills...1.95 -103kg...
  11. Polar F4 with basic HR functionality but the time display is nice and large.
  12. Stunning bikes here.
  13. I agree , his legal team should have done their homework on the judge and realized he likes it short and sweet.
  14. Why waste money, LA for all his faults is not stupid, surely in his efforts to fights the claims he knows he has strong grounds to reject the accusations or has he reached a point where he does not care how much he gambles by digging in his heels. Missing pieces to the puzzle
  15. If convicted LA will need all the money donated because he will struggle to raise any funds, no one would want to have anything to do with him and his cash cow will dry up. His legal team are probably the most expensive guys you could hire so why spend money defending something you cant win.
  16. Do you think LA know this ? Do LA's lawyers know this and if so why did they request a 30 day extension to prepare for his defense? Why is he and the other respondents not negotiating a deal. Pieces to the puzzle missing.
  17. Agree fully with this The N12 between Kraft Road and Putfontein on the East Rand has to be one of the most dangerous roads in the country. 09 July 2012 | John Paterson by e-mail http://www.citizen.co.za/citizen/applications/citizen/templates/images/rating/active.gif http://www.citizen.co.za/citizen/applications/citizen/templates/images/rating/active.gif http://www.citizen.co.za/citizen/applications/citizen/templates/images/rating/active.gif http://www.citizen.co.za/citizen/applications/citizen/templates/images/rating/active.gif http://www.citizen.co.za/citizen/applications/citizen/templates/images/rating/active.gif The N12 highway connecting the East Rand to Johannesburg is unfinished and particularly hazardous, writes John Paterson by e-mail. There are often not enough signs to warn drivers of frequent changes in the width of lane and in change of lane direction. The road surfaces are uneven and stepped in many places, and this is a deathtrap for all, especially motorcyclists. The new detour over Atlas Road causes backups kilometres long. A competent contractor understanding the chaos that such a detour causes should be working extended hours (including weekends) to alleviate the situation as quickly as possible. Often they do not even appear to be working on this detour during the week. Who is responsible to ensure that the safety standards are maintained by the contractor, Sanral or the Department of Public Works? Whoever is responsible is not doing their duty. http://www.citizen.co.za/citizen/content/en/citizen/letters?oid=291612&sn=Detail&pid=40&N12-rapidly-becoming-SA%E2%80%99s-%E2%80%98road-of-death%E2%80%99
  18. If the case against LA was as strong as believed why would LA's legal advisor's not tell LA that, what possible reason could LA have for wanting the case to drag on and drain him financially. Unless his advisor's realize his case is weak but are advising him to hold on because they see him as a cash cow.
  19. I get warm pretty quickly, standing waiting to start will be chilly but 10min later i should be cooking.
  20. Looking forward to it, been quite a while since i did a MTB race ride amble. Start 9.30am so it should have warmed up a bit by then.
  21. For real ??
  22. Arnie's riding a Fuji
  23. Legs must be hurting but more pain today with 2 category 1 climbs, first coming quite soon in the race.
  24. A real gem,
