I am not a supplier but merely a customer now and again in his shop.I always got good service.If the matter has already been handed over to the lawyers what is the point of washing the dirty laundry here.If the court eventualy finds against the shop the judgement will be posted for everyone to see if he/she does a credit check.I am sure it would be prudent to do such a check before supplying someone on credit.

I have a set of Blackburn lights which I use for nite riding.Is it possible to put other led's in to make them brighter.

RIP. heard via the grapevine that heaven is full of singletrack.Condolences to the family.

Which jail.I'm feeling bored and maybe should go down to jail and politely inquire as to why they steal from my fellow mtb friends.I was there last week just after the breakin to get new rear der hanger that broke at meerendal on sat.they fixed it promptly and I could still go and ride the sun afternoon.Nothing but praise from my side to this store.I am glad the bikes are back and the etters are in jail.everyone/thing back to where they belong.

THANKS BE TO YOU CWC

i ride a mongoose mtb.cracked the frame earlier the year and my frame was replaced and buildup with my components from the previous bike in less than 48 hours from contacting them until riding the goose.yes and everything was set up as before.awesome service and even if some of my friends knock bike for it's weight,i just smile and think of the excellent service.go omnico

I was also suffering through the commentary last night.In the end I just used the mute as the commentator was spoiling everything.Very bad but still beats SABC which reminds me of the Pink Floyd words"I've got 60 channels of sh*t on the TV to choose from"

is there anybody out there?

I currently have/ride a Mongoose Otero Super.The bike is standard apart from tubeless conversion which I did.I also put on bigger rotors.The normal things that has worn out has been replaced.I am now in the process of looking at a new/2nd hand bike.I ride 2-4 times in the week and the odd race over weekends.Normally the middle routes eg 40-50km races.I see Raleigh is going to bring out new bikes(canyon/namib with suspension).What would be the better bike of these 2 raleighs.I am also looking at a 2nd hand silverback mercury or is it best to stick with what I have and upgrade the components along the way?Any thoughts out there.Any help would be appreciated.I am not a race snake and normally sort of make up the numbers at the races.

After being a member of PPA for the last few years,I have made up my mind that I will no longer throw my money into a bottomless pit.I now rather give it to someone such as Tygerberg Mtb Club as I can actually see where the money is going to.(just see all the new routes in the Northern Subs).If I do not have a seeding at a race so be it.This is from the perspective of a non professional rider aka the weekend rider/racer.I understand that it is different for the race snakes,but for the other 1000's who also pay their subs etc it does not justify the cause anymore.

SeeBea thanx that is how it was to be interpreted.Responsibility starts with the individual.I believe in meritocracy being that to have rights and to enforce those rights you also have to have the other side of the coin being the obligations.One cannot just demand all the rights and none of the obligations.The obligations are such as wearing helmet,obeying traffic laws etc.I realy hope that myself and my fellow cyclists will embrace the obligations and then reap the rewards.Safe cycling.

I was in Stellenbosch twice last week on bussiness (ok went to stillwater).The traffic is always bad as the road infrastructure is not able to cope with the number of vehicles let alone the number of bad drivers.My problem is with the group of cyclists that came from ct side towards stellenbosch.At he first robot just past the traffic camera 2-3 cyclists decided to ride over the red robot where everyone was standing.I saw them coming from behind and moved over more to the right hand side of the road so that there is more space to pass on the left away from the curb.They just slowed down and went over the robot.I felt bad as a fellow cyclist and could see the oke in the car in front of me gestulating.After waiting for the robot I passed the same cyclists again now riding 2-3 abreast and then came to the robot where you turn right to the strand.I was patiently waiting for the robot which was red again when the same cyclists came from behind.The one guy had his helmet in his hands busy adjusting it while cycling without hands.As he came near the robot he had a look and decided with his friend to go over the red robot and turn right into the road going to strand.This was done with the helmet in one hand and the other hand on the handlebar.Near crash as motorists had to evade "man with deathwish".From the looks of his bike and legs I am sure he was no weekend rider.I still feel for the oke /gal is involved in the accident , but we as cyclist have to take responsibility.

The only reason why I now think the earth is flat is bacause I travelled to Kimberley the other day.After going up contermans kloof yesterday I am no longer that sure.

Are all those goodies only for the full X or for the lite as well?

thanx Mud Dee.It does bug me though that the instructions said it is an alchohol based product and it should be air dried so I thought that it should have evaporated,but then again I also thought the earth was flat.

Last night I decided it is time to clean the pads a bit.Took them out and took some sandpaper to roughen them up a bit.This I have done before and it seems to do the job.This time though I decided to spray them with a product called disc brake cleaner and this morning I have about zero stopping power.What the hell happened and how do I fix this apart from buying new pads.I also sprayed the rotors as the instructions said it will take away grime/oil/buildup etc?Urgent advice will be appreciated before tumbling through majik and hillcrest this afternoon.

I am trying to find out exactly where it happened.Any ideas because in the st I saw this week plenty of new stuff eg broken branches,leftover of fire,foodcans etc.If I see anything suspiscious I will try to run them down with my mongoose and not use the bigger new rotors.This just p@@@@@@@@@@@S me off.

There were SAPS cars last week as well looking for two okes aparantly involved with a breakin in the area.May all criminals rot in hell.

Heard about it as well.the lady was taken to Durbanville Medi Klinic not sure as to what injuries.Bike was stolen blue and silver trek.Hope my fellow cyclist is ok and may the f######## who attacked her and stole the bike die a slow and unpleasant death.

and mine.will just do the forrest then.

i feel the same way.only rsa and england that has hosted world cups for soccer,rugby and cricket.

is the nightrides still on tuesdays?

yes i think it is safe.this morning cops stopped us as we exited the forrest though looking for two "people".the most unsafe part is that there are plenty of trail runners with their dogs going up the singletrack and if you come down you tend to spot them a bit late,but good manners prevail insanity.

I was in Majik this morning and saw the mist coming over the hills just before 06h00.One could only see the top of the radiomast on the hill and nothing else as the mist was covering it.It is for moments like this that makes mtb was it is.I think this is the trail at hillcrest?awesome ride was there on sunday.

I'm more worried about someone like dozi/kurt/steve/jurie etc being fronted by metallica/acdc etc.
