  1. do you have any more pics of the ladies race.. PLEASE
  2. Im a campy fan.. but shimano do sell sti repair kits.. Bought a dura ace kit last month Cost about R1000
  3. sorry guys here i have to agree with athena.. the ladies arent yet ready to get top 10 at worlds. but then again whats the point of sending riders to altitude after no specific training and expecting results. Cherise was fortunate enough to get altitude training before worlds. And got the result she rightfully deserved. however it would have been completely different story if she went over a week before the race. Ladies bunches are avg. over 40km/hr in races that are 50km longer than in south africa. the racing standard has been improving but is still nowhere near to what it should be to get a top10 in elite woman at worlds. Sorry guys its fact, cycling is a hard sport. so what should we do, accept that we are going to get our asses handed to us, only one woman will finish the race being Marissa.. the rest will have some or other excuse. than get funding from lotto and put together a womans development program and take a team of 6 to europe for the world cup season and have them prepare properly 6 months before worlds. thats the only way we will ever get results at a world championships. PS. to europeans races in SA are nothing more than fun rides, if you tell them you won 94.7 or argus they will laugh at you.
  4. well, technically speaking. Ronel is SA champ? UCI rule states that National champion has immediate selection into worlds.. not true?? thats the only reason why Nolan is in the team. ie: a sprinter in a climbers race. csa make rules but cant even use there governing bodies rules Point CSA is F**cked up! no two ways about it cracked up2007-08-28 04:34:21
  5. Do we know who is going in Minette's place?
  6. Just the STi's chain and cassette.. rear derailer will work in fact a 7spd rear derailer will work cause a jockey works on the limits not the spring
  7. okay okay.. SA is F**ked up.. Minnette Naude is not going to worlds, spoke to her over the weekend. She feels that she is not yet ready as this is her first season back on the bike. Also she has exams during that time period. So Taylorchick tell Ronel she still has a shot. As for our 200kg boyfriend and parental figure selectors, lets just not go there!! i say get the right people for the job who are not in anyway related to the cyclists, ie: managers, husbands wifes ect. people like Fullard, JP van Zyl, Steven Oberholtzer, Chunky( if he would), what say you?
  8. Steven Oberholster.. IN Potch he knows a thing or two bout carbon
  9. well the profit comes from the fun riders...etc and the glory goes to the pro's
  10. whats the piont they will never believe that, that was the only thing you did... i remember a few years beck at hector norris when you sprinted and broke your disk... that was power
  11. look at the end of the day the riders dont even have to ask Shaun they can just log onto google and type whatever and they will find out how to do it.. and gift are you really that depressed to stay up all night and chat on the hub.. or what?? did chunky refuse to help you??cracked up2006-08-31 15:38:30
