Haven't been hubbing in a few weeks, so to update the songs that have been running through my head on repeat....in no particular order John Mayer - Slow Dancing In A Burning Room Coldplay - The Hardest Part The Beatles - Help Pearl Jam - Off He Goes

Couldn't believe how much there was - I went up and down those rows all morning - it's practically endless.

I hope you're not refering to the line between the vines...?

The limited edition Independent Fabrication Rapha Cross bike. Based on the IF Planet Cross frame with sterling silver Rapha headbadge and limited to just 20 units. www.ifbikes.com

Have to be honest....I liked the 'pondscum' colour scheme more. Is it a repaint or a new frame...? And what wheels are those...?

They might no be up to your scratch or the latest fox vide scratc but they are certainly up to 90% of mtb rider's scratch. Eldron....I think what bust means is that they are grading routes as 'black diamond' when the routes are not up to scratch i.t.o. technical difficulty. It has nothing to do with the rider's abilities.

I hate that dinosaur. I hate that song. But dammit.....try as hard as I might' date=' I cannot help smiling when my GF sings it to me when I'm grumpy [img']https://assets.bikehub.co.za/legacy_images/smilies/smiley9.gif[/img]

OMG....that is so cool I need to look away

Had the chorus of a Smashing Pumpkins tune in my head all weekend but hadn't really listened to them in ages and it wasn't on my ipod. Finally switched on the laptop yesterday and was grinning when I found it. Muzzle from Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness

Way too many tools there! You know what they say: If you can't fix it with a hammer, you have an electrical problem.

just looked at their website a little while back. the subscription costs $11' date=' and there's a free t-shirt on offer. agree about the pics. the photo annual is the dog's proverbial! kiwi, i was talking to the wrencher at the lbs the other day and he mentions cable hangers similar to the one you posted. where, oh where can you get them?[/quote'] If I remember correctly(this is going way back) that trick was first employed by Ibis in the late 80s/early 90s. They called it the 'handjob'

isn't that Rock you like a hurricane?? Scorpions!!

Ok, as much as I do appreciate the maintenance being done, I have some issues. Before I get my head bitten off, let it be known that I worked at the last official trail maintenance day at Tokai and even requested Dirtopia to organise another one a few weeks ago. I don't know if this particular round of maintenance was done/organised by them though. If they do, I'll definitely be there. My issue is simply that it seems the guys are not giving much thought to their actions. Firstly, they ruined one of the best technical lines on the mountain by completely and totally dumbing it down so that a complete beginner could ride it quite easily. Why they did this I simply don't understand as there was AN EXISTING EASY LINE that has now been destroyed for no apparent reason! WTF...?! Secondly, they added several little jumps/features to the trail. This is all good when they are in the correct position. But what's the point of adding a small double jump IMMEDIATELY after a tight switchback. No human being on the planet can possibly get enough speed to clear it! They're effectively speed bumps....rather pointless. Other than that they did great work, especially i.t.o. dealing with water drainage by adding outlets in particular trouble areas. So, thanks to whoever did it. It is appreciated....just give it some more thought please. Rant over!

A buddy is currently working as a bicycle courier in Amsterdam. On a fixie. With no brakes. That can't be fun on snowy/icy roads!

Neil Young - Like A Hurricane

This is freakin awesome!

Don't think they give visas to people from the states anymore

Just about the best advice I've heard

What BB is it? Make, model, type?
