  1. Damn, I should never have done IM.
  2. Don't worry about my entry. I'll do mine direct with the powers that be.
  3. Also some 661 knee/shin pads.
  4. Yes, take your vehicle to a reputable mechanic not to a bunch of sharks.
  5. Nonsense! As I indicated earlier in my comment, all its income is used to pay running costs. Only grant income is used for cycling and then, not all of it either!
  6. What sublime skills.
  7. I'm planning on entering, solo and singlespeed.
  8. As a matter of interest, is anyone riding a Morewood?
  9. Think I've just renamed the troika... Ed, Edd and Eddy
  10. I'm not to sure whether the 3rd individual is on the Hub, Greg Gamble. The shop is at 70 Juta Street, Braamfontein
  11. The best way, although not the cheapest, is to convert it to belt drive. No more worries about chain rust.
  12. Hunter Cycling is a collaboration between 3 individuals, one of which is Crusher.
  13. I Fly, don't be a woos, rather give him your Lynskey!!
  14. Some brilliant racing and an awesome feed from RedBull. Well done Greg.
  15. I generally ride 32x17 on my SS (29er) but do have a selection of sprockets depending on the terrain.
  16. Unfortunately decent sprockets are expensive. I brought some in from http://velosolo.co.uk/shopsingle.html over Christmas. So if you know of anyone coming over....
  17. Continuum Defiance Zero Hour Non are currently shown in this country.
  18. I had a look at the Income Statement posted earlier on page 12. It would appear that the cycling levies which riders are forced to pay, either the day licence of R35 or the annual licence of R75, are purely used to fund the running cost of CSA, which seems extremely excessive. Funding is also received from the Lotto, SASCOC and the Dept of Sports & Recreation. This funding is then used to pay expenses relating to sub-sections such as BMX, Road Cycling etc. A couple of questions I would ask: - From which Provinces are the levies received? - The money that is spent in the sub-sections from the Lotto funding, in which Provinces is it spent?, - Why is the grant received from the Dept of Sports & Recreation not utilised? (they show a R675k profit), and - Similarly, why isn't the money received from SASCOC fully utilised. The bottom line is that there doesn't appear to be any pro-active spending in ensuring cycling becoming a safe sport.
  19. I love the sound of my Hopes. There is nothing more awesome sounding that 4 or 5 of us (with Hopes) all freewheeling down a trail.
  20. I think I need to enter...
  21. Watched it last night. I wonder if Mike knows what his cruisers can do in skilled hands.
  22. Seeing that you are in Cape Town, why not contact Claire Horner from My Training Day.
  23. Just a couple of questions... Are you using a MaxFlex to drive the lights? Are you using 18650 batteries and if so, what mAh & what input voltage?
