  1. Hey guys, shot for the feedback i'll hopefully b able to post properly again in the week when i'm back in front of a real pc
  2. Yeah, tell me about it...there is already a lot of single track...but it is all just XC type...and that is fun, but not nearly as fun as a trail type single track could be ANd yeah, there is a lot of potential...Just gotta find peeps who are keen to join in the building I think we can just modify portions of existing track bu making more technical, freeride type routes which loop off then join back in, that way we don't have to build all new tracks initially, and we don't bugger up the existing track.
  3. Ah, thank you v much Edman Ya, I only though about that this morning...had it (the Forerunner 305) on the other mode because the bat only lasts 3.5 hrs on 1s intervals. But I think I will turn off the GPS receiver and just use the HR monitor...That should let it last through the night I hope Thanks for the advice about the CSV export, it would be useful to analyse the data in Excel. I could do some funky maths on it as well to see if there are any underlying patterns then
  4. Now that you mention it...my friend never noticed it either...but we sure as hell did when he randomly fell asleep on the floor while visiting us
  5. Hey Squier, thanks for the info, but I am pretty sure I don't have that ... thankfully. A couple o my friends have been diagnosed with it though. As far as I know nobody in the family has it and my BMI is hovering around 23, so am safe in that dep. Also, don't you occasionally wake up gasping for air? I am sometimes tired during the day...but that is usually after a late night, or when I have gone long periods without decent exercise
  6. Yeah, I do notice I am more restless in the morning from say around 5:30 when I get to that semi-awake and uncomfortable state... Wannabe, will be cool to see other people's graphs too, so I am looking forward to it. Does anybody know how to export the Heart Rate (or any other data) from the Garmin (or Sport Tracks) software into a table type format? Lol...I will wear it next time I am playing Counter Strike online...It would spike like crazy during a clan match Oh...yeah, living in George I get out of bed at 07:30 to get to work on time by 08:00 All 1.3 km away My resting HR is in the late 50's, around 58 or so. The average heart rate over the night was 60 bpm, but I think that is being distorted by those "spikes" where I am presumable turning over or something (dreaming of the blonde )
  7. Yeah, I am going for a good ride on Saturday in PE, so will monitor Sat night as well... But I think I am going to start monitoring this at least every second night...It might be pretty interesting
  8. Do feel a little tired in the morning.... As for a glitch...I get what you are saying, but then why does it stay constant over like 30 min? I was thinking the spikes could be when I turn over in the night and need to use muscles to do so I reckon... The average for the night is 60, but that is obscured by the "spikes". I would have to look at the mode, but don;t feel like extracting the data to Excel and analyzing it right now...
  9. lol lol... As usual...I can't remember
  10. So I did try to search for this on the forums but came up wanting. Basically I decided to experiment last night and sleep with the hearth rate monitor on to monitor my heart rate from sleepy time to wake up time. Attached is the plot of my heart rate over the night last night. Now my question is...can anyone help in interpreting this? I See there was a 30 min period in which my heart rate was in the mid 30's...kind of low...But then there are all the spikes up to close to 100 bpm...Is this related to dreaming or what? Dunno if it helps, but I am 28 years old (as of this past Tuesday). Has anyone else ever tried this "experiment"....Maybe give it a go and upload your graphs...Could be fun to experiment...Maybe even get a scientific paper out of it someday
  11. Sweet, will do
  12. Ah, thanks Just gonna be in PE this weekend then the weekend of 10 September too. Gonna try train for Karoo to Coast, but also wanna have some fun, so not do just plain gravel roads. Where is the Woodridge track? Do I go in the school gate?
  13. Hey guys, anybody up for a ride this Sat and/or Sunday in PE...As little tar as possible please. I am looking to TRY do around 50 to 60 km or so Please let me know. I am from PE originally, but new to MTB there...I know the Baakens has some good stuff, but isn't it lekker dodgey with bergies and stuff?
  14. I'd like to know the same thing to be honest... Also, what is the best way to remove the old paint? And if sprayed, could you use normal motorcar paint/primer/etc?
  15. Hey all, I am living in George at the moment and looking for more people who are keen to ride single track and technical descents/ascents and jumps/etc. This would include riding the DH track (but probably skipping some o the jumps). I'd be keen to hook up and build some new track with slightly smaller jumps as a stepping stone to the larger ones we all probably know already. So who is keen? I am getting a little bored of gravel roads to be honest and I think we need some more single track with jumps and drop offs....ESPECIALLY seeing as the drops in Saarsveld are now gone
