  1. Howzit I started in C batch and we had few small bottle necks next R21 ramp,tunnel under R21, wooden bridge (2-3 riders) river crossing but i just went trough water. On Endomondo i had 3.06 time and aver speed 22,than i got email saying i am DNF??????????. Also need to include stops as time on Endomondo stop as you stops probably 5-10 minutes extra and that youngster scan my board at finish and i ask him is it ok and he say it is. I done this one last year and we only had 1 bottle neck at river crossing ?? I send email to queries about DNF to them and still waiting for response?
  2. I agree been married 14 years feels longer and had some complaining in early years of cycling but now is ok except if is family gathering (then i try do early and short ride ) she likes to sleep longer it suits me as in summers days i am back by 9 and she is still in bed. I tell kids that they mustn't go on our bedroom (they are 8) until mom is awake . As to try you help you should take her to race and tell her that she can check all hot bods there( because we do that too ) Also helps that i do not mind going out with girls or whatever reason. Takes a lot work in marriage on both sides sometimes you want to kill each other .
  3. Been doing Pilates and yoga for a few years on and off and see a lot of improvement in my muscle flexibility and core strength ( getting 6 pack). Can touch ground with my flat hands and straight legs. By the way i am 46 years old,and when i start it, you look at people doing it, you think that is piece of cake until you start doing it and your muscle hurts for few days afterwards. Start doing it because i had compression fracture of my spine(had to wear plastic brace on my body for 6 months) and that was x two times(skydiving) now i do not have problem with by back at all.And still skydive Unless i fall of the bike . Definitely would recommend either of,just need to find teacher or class that suite you. I do Pilates at Edenglen Virgin active gym and that teacher make you sweat (OK boys calm down not that thoughts )

  10. My opinion what is point getting tracking system when you need it they not work.You are still paying for insurance(they give you crap like you saving on it) . I choose insurance which do not required it. Any way who cares about car as long you do not get hurt. Friend of my got hijack few moths back had tracking Matrix (you need press button when you star the bakkie otherwise they should phone you ). They drove him to nearest ATM to withdraw money lucky he didn't have card,as they switch car need to be started and normally buzzer sound and if you not press override they should phone you which they didn't(Buggers). That happen bout 14,00h they been driving around about 19,00h and same time beating him and trying to choke him with his tie .They left him at intersection R 24/R21 under bridge.He was tied up outside the bakiee trough the window,he was in such bad shape that couldn't stand anymore so was hanging on ropes. Luckily for him about 20,00h police spot him as they been driving on top of the bridge.He almost didn't make it how badly he was beaten. Matrix response why didn't respond on signal that is technical problem?????. Thief only took cell and GPS (or was cops). His father want take car but cops took it in impound to do finger prints(no powder on car at all)took him few day to get car back what a mission. So if tracking save you it is wort it but like in this case........ stuff them Sorry about English not my first language: Keep save and ride fast

  12. Watched on DR Oz how to make energy drinks 250ml H2O,table spoon sugar,pinch of salt and wala .I suppose you can mix Oros instead sugar to taste better?. I use to use gels and energy drinks now make my own.when i started.If they sponsor me with it i will use it. I suppose is all in our head and instead train more. Why spend on energy crap (spend instead on bike parts) . Done Lion man without and of that just refreshment on the tabel and finished 4,23 H.
