All you have to do is get a bunch of fireblades.org stickers, and stick them on your local tea rooms. Or at Hypermarket

Spread the word!!!

I want to move to CT so I can ride Chapmans Peak all day long, in the warm SA air!!

No. I would like to but I live in the UK now. I am going to be in Jo'burg the last week of May and first week of June. Do you know of any events at Kyalami during that time as I will be staying quite nearby in Fourways?

Re: Any South Africans on here??

Another one here from the same side of the river as my friend bladerunner. Heck they change the names so often I'm not sure if it's still Pretoria or Tshwane or whatever - actually I'm from Centurion. Anyway it's the place with the biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig rugby fever for tomorrow's super 14 semi-final. BTW, rugby is a game where 30 blokes all fight for one ball but it's very popular here - almost a religion and it's expected that the stadium will be full again like the last 3 games, and it seats almost 60 000 people.

Whoot..........my blood is blue !!!

Would't it be sweet if we had a South African final? And for the record, it's the super 13 and the lions

Hallo all you fast people, my name is Gerhard and I am from Pretoria. I just bought my Repsol 2005 on Friday 5 Oct 07. Traded in my VFR800 for it. So far I am impressed and cannot wait to ride every day. I also planned for the Rhino until my wife reminded me that it is my daughters birthday the 27th
