  1. Wow, Surf's Up!
  2. Wow, that is powerful....
  3. Most unfortunate, I really like Capestorm products.
  4. RIP Ertjies, love and strength to family and friends
  5. Jeez, get well soon Ertjies..!
  6. Aah...Jake and Elwood
  7. ...farewell cruel world...
  8. +1 Stupidity one can understand, but it's the arrogance of some of our fellow cyclists that gets to me
  9. We've had similar hassles with UK banking accounts. Ignoring FICA, which is not of our bank's making, I think our banks run rings around the main consumer banks in the UK
  10. Indeed yes.
  11. I'd love to do some Sportives/Grand Fondos in the UK, Italy, and USA West Coast
  12. Thanks for your responses Admin. You can please some of the people all the time and ...etc etc
  13. Find a good LBS (local bike shop) - visit as many as you can and choose which one you would like to deal with. Hubbers will also recommend.
  14. I also miss rolling over a topic title and being able to see some of the narrative of the first post. For me this is a valuable time-saver.
  15. Where is the 'Jump to' another forum box...?
  16. No problem with mistakes here and there, especially where the author's first language is not English. But I am irked by posts that are clearly written by someone who just could not care less... or, heaven forbid, a post written in SMS-speak...
  17. Thanks guys...my dream of one day having a custom-built titanium frame has now been somewhat moderated.. (see http://www.enigmabikes.com/)
  18. My current fancy is a Cayman S, I think it's closer in layout and spirit to the early competition Spyders which first attracted me to Porsche.
  19. Terribly sad, R.I.P.
  20. Agreements with local agents/distributors are probably the cause here, no way out I would think?
  21. ...people swim in Hartbeespoort Dam.. !!??
  22. I'm a Linden Cycle fan, I was well advised by Jonene when I started out, but what I have found is that you have to be a little 'pushy' to get someone's attention, especially when it is crowded.
  23. Go for pre-owned at this stage. Find a good cycle shop and discuss with them, in fact do the rounds of a few cycle shops and discuss. I can strongly recommend Linden Cycles for a start, Jonene has helped many beginners on their way with sound advice. Don't forget that you must allocate part of your budget for cycling gear, with a properly fitting helmet as your first priority Best wishes
