  1. For sure they do! But drones get the Gatwick treatment.
  2. Whenever I ride past Lanseria it's a sure bet that I'll stop and watch if I see planes on approach. Nothing more interesting than being under the flight path of an incoming 737. So I think this place would do my head in, completely.
  3. Agree. I think by the time you got to the finished product you had seen enough drifting and sliding already. But I must say it was good to see how they edited the final footage to create that result. My favourite was the Pikes Peak filming.
  4. Just reading Anything You Can Imagine, about Peter Jackson and the making of the Lord of the Rings. So now I've started watching the series all over again, with new insights. Fascinating stuff.
  5. https://www.news24.com/SouthAfrica/News/anc-warns-of-con-artists-exploiting-zumas-name-for-nefarious-objectives-20181214 ANC warns of con artists exploiting Zuma's name for 'nefarious objectives' You couldn't make this 5h1t up, even if you tried.
  6. Enhanced braking technology - just drop your heels.
  7. Roadies, and their compassion sucks
  8. Watched the first episode of Ken Block's new Gymkhana series last night. In awe of the skills!
  9. Anyone want to complain about short socks again?
  10. Kids from ET all grown up?
  11. Enjoyed first episode of Archangel, with Daniel Craig. Based on a novel by Robert Harris (also wrote Enigma).
  12. My bike looked a bit like that after descending Tokai forest, but eventually Loctite sorted it out.
  13. Williams (2017) The story of Frank Williams, the team and the family. Powerful stuff. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6981046/
  14. If that's your business model then you're dead (or dying). "Wasted salesman's time"...? I get way more useful information about my target purchases from online sources than any salesman has ever given me.
  15. Sons of Anarchy combined with El Chapo/Narcos. Watched the first but I think I'll pass on it.
  16. Where you you get it? Been trying to find it for ages.
  17. I finally realized what's wrong with that picture! Maybe because I was so fascinated (not in a good way) by the saddle bag that I didn't see it.
  18. Probably costs the same too...?
  19. Agree. SS are really a monumental waste of space.
  20. Bear is not thinking "Those dogs are scary". Bear is thinking "Best not stick around, those little b@5tards are going to get me shot".
  21. As a Capetonian in Joburg this makes me smile. Ice-cream seller calling out "A lollie makes you jollie!" Only in Cape Town, bless them.
  22. TBH I can't imagine the damage disk brakes would have caused, because there's no indication that a disk would have come anywhere near him. In fact, I have yet to see evidence that disks cause injuries to the extent that people should fear them. This concern about disk brakes is a bit like the concerns people use to express about seat-belts when they first appeared (I'll be trapped in my car when I crash into the river!"). Personally, I've not been hurt by a disk brake, but I have been "chain-sawed" in the leg by my own chain-ring in a crash. That one did hurt, I can tell you.
  23. Nice. I've been trying to get that one with English subs, after watching Babylon Berlin.
  24. Rita Just started this one. Enjoying. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j95Zle1x10E
