  1. Just for interest sake. How tall are you and how much do you weigh? Is your bike set up optimally?
  2. Take your pick - the one is as good as the other. Go with the better components if there is a difference.
  3. I think you know the answer. Race conditions are never the same as a good tough ride - always tougher.
  4. There is a history that you might not be aware of. I certainly do not condone any pushing of any ranger to the ground or throwing stones at them. I cannot imagine any rider actually doing that either if it was a cyclist at all as apparently SANParks did not mention that it was a cyclist it could have been a hiker or other and the "other" could refer to some dubious characters that frequent that area. That is why I said I would like to know what really happened as some embellishment could also be in the offing. "Grow up" in deed - read my words as they stand and don't add your own interpretation please.
  5. I want to know what really happened !! . According to a SANPaks spokesperson on the radio this morning SANParks rangers are being abused on a regular basis on the mountain by cyclists.
  6. Really enjoyed it just a pity one cannot enjoy the magnificent views as the course demands your attention all the time. Anybody have an idea what the temperature was Saturday morning ??? Blerrie hot !!
  7. Glatex 8
  8. Which question?
  9. . . Pure Savage - Are you going to change into a mankini just after Miller's Point
  10. If it has been treated previously I would go with raw but thinned down with terps. Raw linseed stays tacky longer but it will eventually dry or you could give it a good wipe with terps and a rag.
  11. I have no problem with signs and would think they are mandatory but that is as far as the "authorities" go. Make an effort to deal with the cause. Nada !!
  12. This is a major problem in SA We have a problem area. We put up a sign "Problem Area" Problem solved You takes your chances not our problem you were warned.
  13. bpm
  14. And the Mojoman is spot on
  15. It's Friday so I am not going to comment.
  16. The brake block comes complete with the holder - it is one unit. Your olden days LBS will have those brake blocks for you or source them. Otherwise go to your local negosie winkel they will have too
  17. To OP Contact this lady http://www.wendyknowler.co.za/ Ask her how to go about applying the Consumer Protection Act. She is a hound dog - knows her stuff and is feared by many.
  18. Were you even there ???
  19. I wonder how busy the route is going to be on 14 March and how the authorities will react. CTCT usually on the 2nd Sunday of March
  20. There are a few guys (just a few) around who grab a spade and/or saw and do some maintenance. Most riders do just that "ride" - too much effort to get off the bike but all trails need some tlc sometimes.
  21. Cyclist in red looks like someone I had a run in with some time ago in the Welcome Glen area. Serious attitude - I endangered his life while passing him. Yes I was cycling. While there are motorists with some seriously bad attitude I have come across some cyclists with over the top attitudes - would hate to encounter them when they are behind a wheel of a vehicle
