  1. Will not be able to join you though, I am gonig to Vellerif for the weekend. Or rather Dwarries
  2. The Bottelary Hills are pretty awesome as well. But you also need a R50 day pass. I'll also recommend going to Jonkers. You definitely will not be dissapointed. Make sure you do the Canaries, Never ending and then the quarry. Thats about a 2-3h session
  3. My afspraak met Rudi was baie suksesvol en ons kyk om begin volgende jaar af te skop met 'n sametrekking! Sal julle op hoogte hou! Lekker naweek en GO BOKKE!
  4. Ek sal julle almal op hoogte hou! Dankie vir die terugvoering. Vir my is "Kerk" waar daar mense saam vergader in die naam van God.
  5. Try Second Skins
  6. Hi almal, Soos die somer op ons is en die hitte van die dag 'n faktor begin raak is vroeg oggend oefen in die orde van die dag.En naweke is die enigste tyd wanneer mens lekker lang ritte kan inkry... Sommige Sondae word daar dan egter lang roetes gery en kerk word soms prysgegee. Ek het gewonder of daar belangstelling sou wees, in die Bottelary Hills area, vir 'n soortvan "Kerk"-MTB so een of 2 keer n maand. Waar daar op 'n spesifieke plek byeengekom word en so ook ons lof aan ons Skepper te bring. Die rede hoekom ek spesifiek oor MTB praat is omdat ek persoonlik meer bewus raak van Sy teenwoordigheid as ek in die buitelug is. Ek verwelkom enige terugvoering.
  7. Definitely doing this one!
  8. Ask around for the 2013 Scott Spark 26ers. Their prices dropped a lot due to everyone buying 29ers. My girlfriend got the Spark 650(not wheelsize), which is a 26er. She is about 1.57 so she also decided to not go the 29er route. Full xt, remote lockout for around 15k. Otherwise go for an Anthem. Can not go wrong with them!
  9. Thanks! I am leaning toward that yes
  10. Hi, Just want to know if there are definite benefits to getting a proper bike fit? I'm thinking of doing it for my road bike. Is it worth the money or can you get by doing research on angles and so forth...
  11. Hi guys, There is a black mtb with pink trimmings (handlebar and chain etc) somewhere on the hub. Does anybody know in which thread it is?? Its a dual sus Its really nice looking!! Just want to get another look
  12. Nie seker daarvan nie, maar dis "interessant". (n vrou dra een Rok en 2 Skoene) haha
  13. So ek het 'n debat met my ouers oor die spelling van die woordjie.. Volgens my, en al my jare se opleiding, is die korrekte woord Luiperds. Hulle stry, maar woordeboeke bewys my reg. Was dit in die verlede dalk anders? Sommer 'n simpel thread
  14. Sorry if there is already another thread like this one, but... My rear der broke off on Sat. As I am not one of the filthy rich hubbers, I was just wondering... Can one claim from your bike insurance for stuff like this?
  15. I do not wish to sound insensitive with this topic, but I am kind of upset and enraged at the moment. I was at the tribute ride on Sunday @ Stellenbosch and I really thought the message of road safety got through to everyone... Apparently not... I just came from Hermanus and just as you cross the Steenbras Dam, before you get the turn-off to the lookout point, there were 3 guys cycling toward Somerset-West. The road was crazy busy with holiday traffic and these guys, or at least one of them thought it wise to ride beside his partner...Over the yellow line! With all the trucks, minibuses, caravans etc, you would think these guys have a death wish. And then the negligence of the cyclists are to blame in instances like this, but we all tend to blame the drivers of the cars. How will drivers respect you if you do not respect the road??
  16. I like the Trance W, i have a trance myself, i just think thats unnecessary travel for someone of her riding style. But none the less, is it possible to send me a pic please, and what is your asking price?
  17. Hi Guys, Its time for my girlfriend to upgrade her bike. She enjoys her singletrack, but not really keen on going at the speed of light. I think she likes to keep her pretty face pretty. Now comes my question... Should she go for a nice xc dual sus like a spark or anthem or maybe a carbon hardtail because she wouldn't really need that extra shock? She was sold on the Silverback Senza DS but then the guy at Cycle Factory told me they were only sold in Europe. Also she'd like to buy a new bike. Price range 15-20k Looking forward to responses Thanx

  19. Hi Ouens/Dames Ek is op soek na n Giant trance x4. Ek wil weet waar ek die beste prys sal kry. En dis die 2011 model. Ek beplan om hom lank te ry, so stel nie belang in 2dehands of ouer model nie. Julle kommentaar word waardeer
  20. Thanx for all the replies, Had a look at the trance x4 today... Im sold!
  21. Hi Guys, I've been riding for a while now and i've got a hardtail. Ive done the karoo to coast, 2 argusses, and a wolseley race and i must admit i like my hardtail, but i think its time for me to make the switch to a dual. I enjoy singletrack the most of all the aspects of mtb-ing but not crazy jumps and drops. And the agony of a "sinkplaat pad" on a hardtail is another reason i must admit. Now, to the interesting stuff... The choices My budget is limited to around 12k( i know thats not ideal), but thats what i've got. I've been looking at mostly 3 bikes Silverback Slider http://www.silverbacklab.com/2011/slider.jpg Silverback Mercury 3 http://www.silverbacklab.com/2011/mercury_3.jpg Merida 120 500d http://www.kayalamicycles.co.za/images/stories/merida/merida-mountain-bikes/120500d//120500d.jpg I must admit, the slider is my first choice and its very pretty. Not too fond on merida as a brand... Don't know why... Anyway, opinions will be appreciated
