  1. Was this on the road just before you get the T junction on Polka Draai Road (just tryubg to pin point the spot)? Baden Powell also goes past Khayelitsha
  2. nice seeing the SA TT champ (Darryl Impey) in action at the tour de Suisse... Nice colours too (pic courtesy of cyclingnews.com / bettiniphoto)
  3. that's the dumbest idea i've heard in ages...
  4. try ha ha Kieran, and Edge Design (all hubbers)... Best prices I've got was from them... Good luck!
  5. Before the ad vanishes - here's a screenshot...
  6. I was riding on Wednesday evening - near the front most of the way... there seems to be a different vibe when the okes from Diakin / CT Market / Aurecon join the ride. It's like they want to show off and show everyone how strong they are... the robots that you think we went throught that were red - were actually amber, so obviously if you were at the back it would be red when you get there. We did wait for the guys caught by the red robots, pace did pick up a bit on Wellington road, and was quite hard on the gravel sections - but we regrouped at the end of those sections... But I fully agree, there needs to be a designated "lead" rider who has authority to tell the guys to slow down, ride single file, and even stop and wait if needs be - things are a bit disorganised at times thou - but it is getting a bit better... Personally I think there should still be two groups - a social group, and a racing (or call it what you want, hard, fast, or whatever group). But on nights when we are one group - we keep it a "social" pace... just my 2c
  7. A mate of mine passed this rider 65 at the WP TT champs last year... so the little f&^#er decides to jump into his slipstream (yes at WP TT champs, in a TT), so buddy tell him to get out of his slip - he checks under his arm and little mister is still there so he tells him to F%$# off... he cries to his daddy - who reports my mate to CSA for racially abusing his son. My bud got called into a CSA hearing, and faced all kinds of sh#t to proof his innocence... A lifetime ban would be so sweet...
  8. yes we are - got confirmation via facebook... it's on like Donkey Kong!
  9. Just posted a note on neilswheels profile asking to give his side of the story to this thread... let's see
  10. Did you see neilswheels is now a hubber as well
  11. I like the buycycle guys - I ordered a set of Time RXS cleats, paid and was then told there was no stock - these guys went out of their way to get a set of cleats for me... arrived a few days later, but they were the only guys willing to help...
  12. Have heard it has the same aero advantage as a disk wheel...
  13. Just a thought, also based on experience... most crooks come across as really nice guys
  14. Thats why I'm getting it when I am in Austria
  15. I'm thinking of getting that frame (Ultimate CF SLX) as well when I am in Austria in June... the one finished in matt black is hot...
  16. What irkes me is they advertise like the clappers on 'specials' and then it's only XXXXXL sizes
  17. Just had a quick look - this Canyon Areo CF is the same frme Gilbert used to win that classic yesterday... so it's gota' be good
  18. Well done good man for taking your time to do this... i wish we (incl me) would be more pro-active about stuff like this.
  19. Go for it - you only live once and then let me know what you think of it, then I might get one as well
  20. And the price seems good as well - for 3,299 euro you get the cosmics and campy record!!! And it's the frame that Phil Gilbert uses every now and then... amazing imo
  21. When i go to the link for Neilswheels it says account has been suspended - is this just me, or is this looking more and more suspicious...
  22. Cars drive like the flippin clappers on this stretch of road... I'm always scared when riding there... Condolences to his family
  23. Haven't a few missing bikes being found in that particular shop???
