  1. I see they have updated the add, they removed the ‘R80000’ value of the bike
  2. a simple mistake of an ‘a’ or an ‘o’....either a fantastic end to a date or an abrupt end to a date
  3. Looks like something called Ecotron Not trying to ruin anyone’s livelihood in these trying times but Somebody is being rimmed or mislead
  4. This popped up on my Facebook feed today. Even for an ebike this seems very very overpriced
  5. There is still hope for the classifieds here...Facebook is always good for a laugh
  6. Do we have to ride with a mask if we plus members?
  7. Myself...holding off on pulling the trigger on the entry until next month but I think realistically it’s the only stage race that has potential for this year
  8. https://crushingiron.com/podcasts/ It’s a triathlon focused podcast but they great guys, easy going, down to earth coaches
  9. +1 TrainerRoad for structured training. zwift and Rouvy I use for long rides and for a change up.
  10. Hi, was bought from a Facebook add in Pretoria. I did check the stolen bikes listed here before making payment
  11. Apologies if this has already been discussed 7000 times but does any of you clever okes know if point 3 indicates we are still not allowed to travel to cycling parks/ meeting points? I want to travel to the Cradle from PTA but this still seems to be no-go.
  12. Yip bought from them 2 weeks back, got the stuff in about 5 day
  13. I found your videos last night got them lined up to watch
  14. When I ride, run, walk I wear a mask. When there is nobody around I take it down, when I approach people or people approach me I pull it up. Why? Because that’s the law and I was was raised to respect the law regardless of if I believe it to be convenient or not. I live and train in Equestria, Pretoria East. It’s been a dog show since the level 4 started, there so many people in groups training you could easily mistake it for a batch start at an event! these posts come up daily on Facebook and on here and has been discussed to death under another thread. end of the day if people are not going to listen to the law then there is no way they going to listen to some stranger b!Tching on Facebook or on some cycling forum. Not trying to be a d!ck to the OP, believe me, we all see what’s going on, it doesn’t need to be pointed out to us every day. Do what you know is right.
  15. I found this Bianchi M Alloy Pro On gumtree and took delivery today. I believe it’s a 2003 model? For the year it doesn’t look like it’s done huge mileage but there are a few things I need to sort out. The guy I bought it from was from Malawi and had just learnt to ride. Told me it makes a grinding noise when you pedal....obvious issue with how the chain had been threaded and that seat keeps falling backwards...due to the backward and loose seat post My plan is to get this beaut back to its former glory but I don’t want to drop silly money on it. The clear coat has lots of these little cracks in it and there is some paint fade in some areas. - what is the best way to get some shine and original color back to this frame? Would it need to be completely re-sprayed or will a very fine sanding and re-spraying of the clear coat work? I want to keep it as original as possible so not really keen to go the complete respray route. Apart from that it looks like I just need to find a campy front mech and put some bar tape on. is this worth spending money on or are there loads of them around?
  16. Thanks guys, I think it’s going to be the restored and ride project.
  17. I’m taking delivery of this Bianchi M Alloy Pro tomorrow. I believe it’s a 2003 model. I’m itching to build up a gravel bike and wondering if this will be a good project or would it be better to restore it back to some sort of it’s former glory. It’s has a Campy Veloce groupset, which needs some work I believe. Is this old enough to be considered a classic and if so is it worth restoring?
  18. Anyone using one of these littles guys? https://www.yuppiechef.com/delonghi-coffee-appliances-and-accessories.htm?id=48477&name=DeLonghi-Dedica-Pump-Manual-Espresso-Coffee-Machine-EC685
  19. Looks like we back to normal on the outside exercise part, with masks obviously
