supercycling

The only negative thing I can say of her, with experience, she give's a crappy slipstream

[Radfahrer]

 

Is this still a thread about supercycling?

• Why not get one of the lady cyclists in.
• How about seeing what the old boys are up to (Robbie Mac) etc
• Where are the groups riding in the morning, routes etc?
  • the TDF morning group is a prime example of how a group grows before the big races, hence the crashes the other morning.
• Maybe follow a group around, in the morning.

Before we crit Arnie (or his haircut), AM or Owen (who openly spoke about his suspension) remember what we sound like when the camera is on us. Watch when the camera is on a cyclist, always a stoooopid response that may have seemed funny when they are dehydrated.

• The hottie that replaces Arnie from time to time is refreshing, but clueless about cycling. 

AM has done a LOT for sa cycling and its popularity in this country.

I enjoyed watching AM in one of those old races against Alan van Heerden

 

What are the young cyclists up to.

 

We spoke to Christoff van Heerden this morning, what a nice guy. Have you guys seen his bike handling skills? Maybe he should be the STIG for supercycling.

 

What is happening at government level regarding cycling - at school level-safety etc etc? Make them accountable on TV

This platform is HUGE, it should be used

We know the olympic selectors were idiots by sending a 1 stage race winner (Where everyone else crashed)to a hill climb race, confront them.

Have someone interviewing these guys placing them on the spot.

 

Maybe a regular Joe Public cyclist could be entertaining testing stuff could be quite cool, seeing the difference that deep sections give, compared to lightweight wheels, compared to their ride. Or Joe public's endeavour to upgrade his bike and lose 5kg's.

 

Go to bike shops around the country, what are the guys offering/not offering.

 

PHEW did I type all that......

AHHHH instead of being a little girls blouse and measuring your intellect or quirky response by the size of your..er..post count, why not respond to the topic.

 

Don't be a chop, this IS all talk, that is what a forum is (NOT?)

[/quote'] Get some serious counseling mate, your attitude sucks........most of us on the hub are pretty good mates and take the micky in a light hearted way which is exactlty what mine was.

[Radfahrer]

Dude, normally I wouldn't bother with a response, but your sarcasm and then overdefense is ...well just strange.

 

You then drag EVERYONE into your fight expecting a mass defense. (a bit girly don't you think)

 

If you found my comments of referring to you as a girls blouse or a chop as overly aggressive, or hurt you emotionally,  I will gladly forward my counselling groups number to you, as we are making great progress....

 

I was trying to add some form of contructive input with my post. Unless I am confused and on the sarcasm forum that is restricted to a select group that "take the micky in a light hearted way" on which NOBODY else may comment otherwise you get a sarcastic comment totally off topic.

 

Now if you would like, I could start a thread (Even with a poll) and continue this banter as it has become most enjoyable, or should we just carry on giving constructive criticism to the thread that was originally started.....     S.U.P.E.R.C.Y.C.L.I.N.G.

 

c'mon spud, give us a hug and lets be friends

All very good suggestions ? constructive, relevant, realistic and possible within the show's tight budget limits.

Eeeeeeeeeerm! If you read my first post in response to what you said, I was suggesting that they were all good ideas and when are you going to open the threads...............glad counseling is working well though............plonker!

[turtlek]

has anybody on the hub been on a ride with christff durin the week other than me because they can probably vouch for his bike handling skills aswell we usually go fro mountain bike sessions on our road bikes and no not just next to the tar we go on all sorts of terrain wont start mentioning the scares and funnies we have had

 

 

 

also to be able to bounce on your back wheel for the duration of a robot change that has four stages is nothing to laugh about

 

 

 

i think radfharer has a great point there and yes stof should be the stig but under a different name and seeing as we all know what he looks like he will just have to wear normal kit!!!!

<<SNIP>> we usually go fro mountain bike sessions on our road bikes and no not just

?

i am not sponsored i cant tell you how much i have spent on my bike but i still do it because it is fun and a change from the old slog on the road

 

in the end the worst is that we might get a puncture..... i promise you if a bike can last one of our sessions it will survive anything in south africa except epic or one of frits pienaars early year races

 

 

 

and yes i agree we get a crew out to the east and stof myself and a few buddies will take you guys out on a decent off-road\road rides

 

 

 

but i must warn you it is more impulse than actually planned riding
