My combo right there.

Can't you make it stretch...?

Just to chuck a spanner in the works, hows about one of these? Thinking about getting one. Currently have a S725x. http://www.suunto.com/us/en/Product-Families/ambit http://www.suunto.com/us/en/about-suunto/news/company-news/suunto-launches-the-ambit-gps-watch Suunto Ambit http://watchreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/ambit-black.jpg

Funny thing that. Discussed it with a mate today whilst doing the weekend warrior thing. Don't you think the lip hair gives him more credibility...? That one bird in the movie - KC's brother's bird - is the old Lt. Stephanie Holden from Baywatch. She is one hard core athlete nowadays.

....and he gets all his pearls of wisdom from Bicycling magazine which he subscribes to, paying full price and not the Discovery Vitality discount...

Saw this on Dstv for the first time earlier this month. Pretty cool movie... http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/13/American_flyers.jpg/220px-American_flyers.jpg

You'll need some of these... http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-8dnFePXSWcI/TqyswveCykI/AAAAAAAAAhQ/GlSrbcXR29Q/s400/Zombie_Max_ammo.png

Awesome!!! Afternoon delight! I work nearby, 1km from the trails. Will go & check them out. Will give feedback & post an Endomondo route map. EDIT: Balls. Only open on weekends

Niner RIP9. Reason I'm asking it that the front end always rides "hard" (even though the suspension is soft) which led me to believe that the bike came with a 100mm fork instead of a manufacturer's recommendation of 120/140mm. I'm thinking that the head tube angle might be a bit steep so that the fork bends back instead of compressing. Thought of getting a 120mm Float or Talas but don't want to spend all that money if I'm being finicky.

...bit of a stupid question... Is there anyway by just looking at a fox fork to see what the travel is? I bought a bike with a Fox 32 F29 Kashima fork on it but have no idea what the travel is. Measured it with a ruler - it is either a 100mm or 120mm travel fork. Not sure about the clearance left at the top of the stanchions. I'm leaning towards 100mm but are there any identifiable marks or numbers to look for since all the forks in the range are draped in the same decals. Thanks in advance.

Try Johan Bornman @ Yellow Saddle.

Was thinking more or less the same thing...

Yup. Those single foamie things.

They have charging stations at the end of each day. Mahala I think. Pack a roll of black bags - multiple uses.

Nah, Victorinox's brother

I see Dylan Victor is going to be there.

Reminds me of that old Beltel business.

6 & possibly 8....

Got 1,2,3, 4, 5 & 7. Cool post. Trying to figure out the rest!

cva?

Watching IRT on 254 now. Lisa Kelly needs another mention. I know I have mentioned her before but the bird is tough as nails. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_XcLJqZsrnJA/TDNp6JdyicI/AAAAAAAACCc/Iv4AR7r6jiY/s1600/Lisa+Kelly.jpg

Very, very sweet bike. DIY or shop? If DIY, where did you get all the parts from & painting done?

My brother is in finance in the UK. They still do make tons of cash. Even with all that recession mumbo jumbo the guys were coining it. Sure, there were some guys who lost a lot of money, some jobs & opportunities disappeared but don't think for a second that the okes are cap in hand at the boss' desk looking for some extra dosh to finance the new german/italian vehicle. If KV makes a bucket load of cash - good on you fella! He identified an oppurtunity & had the balls to go for it. Honest hard work, persistence & initiative deserves reward plus he is not punting it as a charity event. I have yet to hear anybody complain about that Zuckerberg laaitie and his pot of gold...
