THE BODY CENTRE

who are these guys?

One of the V groups - unsure which Start to VD or VE group

Some interesting wheels .... The juniors are off What exactly was happening here? Looked like a guy strapped to a chair on a tandem?

Just to show the Capies what Jhb looks like @ 5 am My TCS contribution Slowpoke's friends And the Elites are off

Bikemax and Bruce probably have a shortcut for this, but I first make a clone of the current graph (just in case i mess the original one up beyond repair) And then in the clone: go to Options > customise this chart > are there you can put in different date ranges

Texas Sally (nice name )! Don't buy anything yet, first get to the root of this. Think back carefully - what did you change 5 months ago? And it might be something in the 'rest' of your life, not neccessarily something cycling or training related.

Nellie - couldnt resist! Do the black shorts work better for you? (This is Wayne's pic from Jnr tour)

The U/16 and Jnrs ride together as Senior Scholars. Here is a slightly fuller view of their numbers! WH - those shorts count for neutral kit. Not marked with any sponsor other than the manufacturer's logo.

What the hell??? Is jy nou ernstig - is di? ou onder 16??? As ek nie na die nommer op sy rug gekyk het nie sou ek wragtig gedink het hy's 19 of 20. (lyk bietjie na Michael actually) Ook maar goed die ouens moet hulle liga nommers dra anders kan jy jou mos lelik vasloop Nellie, your luck is in - Mark is a 2nd year Junior ...

note to self: next time use pink arrow first THANKS GUYS!!

Thanks for the matchmaking velo!

ok ... lets see if a pink arrow does the trick.

I am hoping that someone has a broken Ritchey stem lying around. I only need the part marked with the red arrow - the silver plate thingie (does it have a name?) , but it seems these can't be ordered separately. WCS 4-axis 110

Ollie - I'm not sure, but it might be either http://www.oakpics.com/ or http://www.actionography.co.za/ You have to check their sites, as they don't always post on the hub when they update after events.

And for our younger ones ... Evan and Stefan Ihlenfeldt who had a great season in the Junior Races. (and a big THANK YOU to Stefan's dad who lent a wheel to A. They don't even ride for the same team! MUCH APPRECIATED!!) Monkeyman Albertus and Louis Ronelle2007-11-11 11:06:41

Last Helshoogte batch

A couple more from Helshoogte

A well deserved win! Well done Michael! Will post more later

Elites over Helshoogte Chrissie, Lourens, Michael, Acsis followed by MTN rider and then (name Colonel)

SV Start Mark happily showing his new shorts! NICE!! A random shot into the VETS waiting to start Helshoogte to follow ...

RobM - i referred to the Spiral Line, of which TFL and ITB form part. You can Google that. (Try Spiral Line Anatomy Trains as keywords) or look at this http://www.massagetherapy.com/articles/index.php/article_id/738 for starters. So any adjustment on the bike which will influence the spiral line, will influence your pain. You are welcome to mail me rust AT iafrica DOT com to talk this through. Personally i'm not so pro resting if the initial cause is not addressed. AND one can stretch all you like, without actually stretching the tight structure! So in effect just wasting your time. The fascia itself is likely to be tight here, and 'normal stretching' is not going to adequate loosen the specific tightness. Ronelle2008-03-23 08:48:17
