epoh ... I will come from the other side but go through at 7am ... hopefully i get you at the turn into the loop? if you start at 7h20/7h30, you should be at the loop start at around 7h45???

slowpoke i was mentioning about people talking to each other whilst a high speed .... i did not mention about oncoming traffic??? I am responding on the topic about development riders etc.

Nuwbie I think you single out development riders! I can also quote on races; yesterday doing also around 50km/h experience racers in the VB bunch had casual chats even looking at each other .... yes and they were not development riders; point I am trying to make is that racers sometimes take safety in the bunch for granted! Have it ever occur that the development riders have no reference to racing protocol; yes now some may argue that they can reference the CSA site etc. etc ... which responsible team/s - racers took it upon themselves to "educate" these development riders? waiting for the CSA will never happen; some hubber mentioned that these guys swear in the bunch; ever occur that maybe these development riders feel unwelcomed in the bunch/racers, hence why they "cheat" etc.. make them feel welcome; in JHB it appears that "colour" barrier is not an issue in the bunch ....

Should other clubs absorb these youngsters into their clubs? This way at least they can learn the ethics of racing, the culture around cycling and it will be easier for them to change the way they were brought up and blend into the "norm of cycling"?

FF just spend the extra R80 and get the BBB for R280; you will not regret it; it is most frustrating if the cable does not cut properly! KlapperKnop2009-02-20 00:39:20

FF, spend the money and get the right tool ... the Parktool as well as BBB are meant for the application; cuts the cable the right way, side cutters does not do the right job.

62m over 1km ... and the rest at the beginning and before this 1km bugger?

Yip ... and carlo_sq gives you a good deal!!!

nothing wrong in asking for discount; in fact why did he not insists in talking to the BOSS; telling the BOSS that he travelled lots km and if the BOSS still had an attitude to tell the shop to keep the goods or pay by card. But slandering the "smelly small shop" is not fair! - sounds to me like reverse attitude?
