  1. www.darwinawards.com A Chronicle of Enterprising Demises Honoring those who improve the species...by accidentally removing themselves from it! [/quote'] Guys...in all honesty....I see this as a very serious matter. I totally don't agree with his intention to sue the builder and I have written the journalist to express my views. However, I don't think it's appropriate to mock the guy. It's just in bad taste. I have of late often thought about such an accident happening to me. We ride hard and fast, especially on technical and steep descents. I have numerous close calls all the time. Any one of those could result in me being in a similar predicament. Let's show some respect to what is afterall a fellow rider.
  2. god....(at the risk of starting another religious debate)
  3. Thanks Deamon....that's what I thought
  4. Can anyone tell me if the see-saw is still operational, wherever it is now? Was it broken after he rode it? I remember them claiming that it got stuck?
  5. Your case doesn't appear to have much substance
  6. ...and do they publish reader's letters...?
  7. Someone want to give me the Sandton Chronicle's email address...?
  8. Haha....love your descriptions of the colour markings. WRT the entrance of the trails, it is a known practice in Canada that the first obstacle on a trail is desinged to reflect the difficulty of the trail as a whole, meaning that if the first obstacle is beyond your ability then it's best you not attempt the trail. (Dammit....all this talk is making me sad)

  10. Been on Fox for 4 years front and back. Love them....by far the best fork/shock I've used
  11. I'm in the Cape
  12. Damn....wrong province....perhaps if I'm up there again at some point
  13. Or americans....?
  14. Do many people have this problem...? It seems like such a simple bit of engineering....surely you shouldn't need a botch job to keep a seatpost up...? Is there perhaps some design flaw or manufacturing defect on the frame...? Have you tried a different seatpost...?
  15. THAT IS A THING OF BEAUTY! Yip....as you can see they like to keep things natural
  16. F_ing typical of this pathetic society we live in....noone has the balls to take responsibility for their own actions. If that sounds unsympathetic....too bad. It's intentional. He chose to ride it himself!
  17. Got this via email this am http://capetown.gumtree.co.za/c-Stuff-for-Sale-sports-bicycles-fitness-MTB-Disc-Wheelset-Mavic-717-Rims-with-HOPE-hubs-W0QQAdIdZ67745963 Think that's an excellent deal....no?
