  1. The human body is quite amazing- I saw an accident where I was certain the guy had died- but he survived and as far as I know made a full recovery... Let's hope this commuter pulls through without to many lasting issues... (We can only hope...) The medical care he'll receive as a "commuter" will sadly be lacking though.
  2. Bad news - sorry to hear. I'm also in Linden...
  3. Poor OP... This topic is nowhere near where it started from...
  4. You're the first person I've ever heard have anything good to say about CCMA... Are you sure you were in the right shop;)
  5. Gents- stop feeding the troll... Condolences to the riders' family- terrible news
  6. Claudio is a legend- love his previews!!
  7. Really cool cover!! I like how the lead singer didn't try and match Freddie's vocals ('cos that's just not possible). Instrumentals also interesting...
  8. I have a cracked 29er MTB front rim that you can try and get repaired and then try true. I'll cover the repair costs... Was told by the LBS that they wouldn't repair it...and I'd rather not face plant due to a dodgy repairer, but if the workmanship is good- why not?
  9. F&$k it man! This really pisses me off. The guys that are actually working hard and trying to support their families in a legitimate manner don't deserve this. I wish I could give the piece of crap running this county a bike and let him cycle on our roads in a non- recreational manner!!
  10. Dude- are you a runner spying on the cycling forums? Burry Stander- the best ever ever ever South African. XCO champ,SSWC champ, all round nice guy. Killed by a taxi driver a few years back.
  11. Maybe train harder so that you're not that buggered at the top of the hill... (It's Friday )
  12. What a true champion!! The way he said he won silver really puts his character into perspective...
  13. Speculation as to the circumstances won't bring the cyclist back... RIP & condolences to the family. Guys- we all need to be vigilant as well as obey the rules of the road- we will come off second best in an accident.
  14. Are you a roadie? Mtb's are even more fun in the mud...
  15. Carrying a hanky to blow your nose on a ride ...ppfffffffttttttt Equal rights = block the 1 nostril with you finger and blow as hard as you can
  16. Just be aware up there... Awesome riding, but there have been muggings in the past.
  17. Good result- well done! Write it off as a bad experience and train harder with the goal of beating the kid in the next race. For him it'll be hard to win without 'outside assistance"... This type of thing happens all the time: races, business etc...
  18. If you want to cough up a lung and bleed from your eyes... Enter a XCO race at Thaba trails unprepared....(Speaking from experience) But it is great fun
  19. What about the Thaba DH course? Is it still going?
  20. Hi guys Just saw this on FB... Just heard there was a mugging at gun point close to the bird sanctuary. Apparently a couple walkers had their iPhones and some cash taken. No injuries. Youngster wearing blue overalls & maroon beanie. Exiting through Blairgowrie gate.
