I will dude. Thanks for showing all of us that money talks. Go practice your golf swing before you hit the course.

And you have just shown everyone that a jock with a spray-on tan should rather stay locked up in the gym. Go chest press those 8's and drink your chocolate whey protein while you look at yourself in the mirror.

nothing wrong with being fit. However being a **** is not advised.

you should take some of your own advice. The way that you addressed the OP with your queries / concerns smacks of arrogance and disrespect.

Apologies to the others who are actually interested in the event. This is the last I will post as handbag slinging with a jock will not get any of us anywhere.

I am sorry you feel that way. . If you have a issue with fit people you are in the wrong sport, as most of us who cycle do it for fitness and love of the sport.See you at the next event. Cheers dude.

...If you charge that amount and you are too cheap for a medal, you aint getting my cash...

I am not sure what this statement has to do with being fit. The organizers are donating the cost of medals to a very worthy cause and you respond like this? We clearly ride with different crowds. Come and ride Attakwas in January. They have very nice medals there. I have 3 of them already.

I am done arguing with you. You making such a fuss about this event, yet you are not even riding it. Calling people names because we complain about an event being to expensive. I dont care if the money is for charity or Jacob zumas petrol fund, if it is expensive, more so than similar other events, I will point it out. Calling me a Jock etc etc, you are very strong behind your keyboard. Looking forward to meeting you so we can see if you are just as strong in person. I work hard in the gym and on the bike. Nothing you say will change that. Glad you have 3 Attekwas medals, I will hopefully also get the privilidge to earn one one day.

Yup, and you dont even get a medal, yes I know everyone does not like them or need them, but I love em, and so do my friends. If you charge that amount and you are too cheap for a medal, you aint getting my cash.Please consider to provide riders with the option to receive a medal after completing the ride over and above the donation to your charity. I will also be doing the Helderberg race te Sunday, so will everyone else I ride with. My friends and I will rather do an event that is more in line with what we can afford.

There, I fixed it for you. Now go play with your weights.

Thats 100 percent accurate. Fanks. I agree I could have used slightly better language. But only slightly, us Jocks are not very clever, its all the steroids and stuff. No hard feelings. Sweet dude.

No hard feelings here. Remember that you are talking to real people here who often post here with only good intentions. I got very annoyed when you addressed the OP in the way that you did as I felt that it was unnecessary. Apologies for the name calling on my side. It was also unnecessary.

Now kiss and make up you two...

Both of you have hi-jacked a perfectly good thread advertising a new event.

 

if it's too expensive for your liking - vote with your wallet!!!

If a reader points the expensiveness out and commnets on that...so be it...no disrespect there..its his/her opinion!

 

deal with it get over it....move on nothing to see here...

OK!

 

R10 /individual entry, R300/corporate entry, R100/family entry and 20% of the profit will be donated to the Bovlei Community Centre. What is left after all the organising cost, trail maintenance and trail building for this event will go back into more trail building.

I did not make the prices.

 

If a race is a Cycletour qaulifier it cost R300. All the MTN/ Nissan races is also in that range. The Karoo to Coast is also in that price range. No trail stay in rideable condition without maintenance, especially after a winter like this one. Every year there is new laws and rules to have an event on your property. It is getting more expensive to host events. I stopped doing events because of fuel prices and event cost. Anybody can go to Welvanpas, Meerendal, Bottelary and Jonkers for R40/day. Do appreciate these places, there is a lot of effort going into all of them and hosting an events does help. Please just go and enjoy your mountainbike.
