Holy Poo, so much positive vibe, starting to wish we had a Juan in DBN!!!!

Its said that you should never argue with an IDIOT as they will just bring you down to their level, then thrash you with their years of experience! Think some of you could learn from this?? Any idea where i can find a forum dedicated to cycling and free of bullsh*t like this thread. If i want to read sh*t like this i would buy the newspaper!!

What a load of "Tosser's" you lot have to deal with!! So glad i live in DBN.... Is it completely necessary to ride this "Cradle" area? Is there no other options? Something away from this "Hot" zone. The residents sound like self absorbed prat's. Buy a mountainbike, leave these selfish fools to kill each other on their precious roads and mount their community safety initiatives, and head for the bush, its safer.

FIT - Carbo Supreme, Bananas & Baby Potatoes rolled in Olive Oil & Salt. Never let me down......

Drilling into the frame would freak me out a bit. On long rides i have always carried a bottle in a shirt pocket without a problem. I saw someone with a bottle fitted to the top tube (facing up) using the Zefal attachment and it looked good and seemed pretty useful. Use it/Dont use it....... Good luck on the Epic, you got a bigger set than me!!!

Im not causing **** with anyone on this site again!!! Some troubled people here...... Think i may have "stamped" my rods just reading this thread...... http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/36/36_11_12.gif

THIS, is real justice..... http://velonews.competitor.com/2010/01/news/a-reporters-notebook-sentencing-dr-thompson_102284

Dont worry. I stopped on a pavement at a intersection and prayed that she would get HEMORRHOIDS.

Correct.

Correct! Trying to change the perceptions and moaning about the same thing constantly is boring...... These articles are concrete, no bullsh*t evidence that helmets can be the difference between life and death. Rather post these articles when you come across them, they convey a stronger warning of the consequences than any whyning does.

Durban skater dies in freak accident December 28, 2009 Edition 1 (Natal Mercury) YUSUF MOOLLA A FREAK accident claimed the life of a young Durban man during a fun night out at the weekend. Oliver Bray, 21, a keen BMX rider and skateboarder, and two friends were skateboarding down a hill along Kingsmead Drive, Westville, late on Saturday night when he fell from his skateboard while negotiating a bend. Bray, of Manor Gardens, hit his head on the pavement, severely injuring himself. He was declared dead at the scene by Netcare911 paramedics. Bryce Louw said last night he was still numb at the loss of a friend of many years. He said Bray had been an avid BMX rider for several years and had taken up skateboarding recently. The creative former pupil of Westville Boys' High had also taken to designing and building his own skateboards. I cant help but wonder if this youngster was wearing a helmet, and if not....how different this story would of been if he did???? MarkU2009-12-29 10:55:18

I dont know why hubbers constantly look for opportunities to get hot under the collar and aggressive?? Some things cannot be changed, let it be? Look after yourself, your family and your mates, that's manageable. Governments cant control societies successfully the world over, what makes you think you can create wholesale change amongst cyclists? Too much testosterone, image, attitude and ego to have to overcome in forcing the helmet issue. Let those who know better learn the hard way. This argument is boring and pointless and will be raging on for generations to come, as is the riding two abreast argument for that matter!! Do you all really give a damn about these idiots anyway? I know i dont....

Thanks for all the opinions and feedback! I think Mr Brunsdon hit the nail on the head when he said lube is a personal choice...... I have "personally" chosen to go the "Rock & Roll Gold" route. A mate begged me to try a bottle and for good reason. The stuff is phenomenal!
