River Rat Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 (edited) grb285 I'm on your page on the price fixing issue and I won't shop there. But I have decided that this is different simply because I cannot believe that people who have taken the trouble to start this initiative would allow the money to be subverted. Maybe I'm naive but I continue to believe that good people that take up the challenge will triumph over evil. It's up to us to support them in whatever manner we can. I also have to doff my cap to AM for trying to address the negatives from the price fixing issue by making a substantial donation. However, I can see that you will not be swayed. Never mind hopefully the little extra I put in (knowing you would not) will make a difference. The challenge I'm laying down is for others that feel the same way as I do to do the same (or beat it!) . Edited August 10, 2011 by River Rat
Wyatt Earp Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 @River Rat, your positive outlook is much appreciated.
rouxtjie Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 As suggested previously, if YOU are so keen to donate your hard earned 1000s, why don't you create your own website for people to contribute and hire your own investigator to investigate stolen bicycles and hijacking and price fixing? Perhaps we can meet up at one of the MTB races in the Cape, have a beer after the race and have a discussion on all the burning questions you have?He doesnt like beer, I have tried that one. Just for the record, if you guys do make a contribution via the cyclelab race entry site, it works exactly the same way as entering a race but at the end you just choose how much you want to give, pay via credit card and bob is your oom. Easy peasy, PS I havent received any spam from cyclelab on my phone or email due to entering personal details for previous races on the same site, dont see why I will start getting them now.
The Drongo Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 Watched it last night.Well done dudes. That Bike Block is a smart idea. Bush telegraph will do the rest - hopefully. Interesting the foreigner angle though: I wrote a while ago about the number of high end roadbikes in Mozza. Stands to reason that a MTB would be a far better choice. Given the road conditions there. Zim direction interesting though.
TNT1 Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 bob is your oom. I'm your what? PS, why didn't you have a braai yet?

The Drongo Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 What ya angry for? 'cause "mense regte" don't allow him to spank The Wurm and the grb(rat).
rouxtjie Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 I'm your what? PS, why didn't you have a braai yet?hehehehhe I did, nobody pitched...they must have been packing or something
TNT1 Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 'cause "mense regte" don't allow him to spank The Wurm and the grb(rat). Yeah, maybe grb is a tad abrasive, but he raised some valid points, and there seem to be a lot of other peeps on the fred doing the name calling. I still don't see why grb is being victimised here.

Can't attend, but my offer still stands.
Tumbleweed Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 Okay, guys, this thread is in danger of slipping back to the personal stuff again. Please keep to the topic and leave the personal stuff out of it.
Wyatt Earp Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 Can't attend, but my offer still stands.Thanks again for that offer, much appreciated.Let's set up a Saturday arvie where we could all get together, a nice social and discuss bicycle safety and our trails, we could turn this in to a club for the people to create a much closer and close knit community.The FB froup is there for people to share their thoughts, as well as their trails, if any of you are using sportstracker , Garmin or anything as such, feel free to share those trails on our FB group.

You emphatically told me so. Now you are? Which is it? Nathrix, what makes you think I'd want to have a beer with you? All you have been is abusive to me.
