  1. Thanks man!!! Good advice.
  2. Thanks will do! Ja well I am feeling the best I ever have and thought lets pump some vitamins this week and see what it does. Yes it can be seen as an "experimental race" i guess. Beer will flow on Saturday yes. Also yes I will have fun. My Flet B12 will ensure I do have fun! Ja i will jump in bed Friday at 7PM as I have to leave at 4AM Sat! Need to get to Midmar at around 11h30AM so that I can go for a short run and 20km bike to steel the "car-lag"....
  3. Ok but how about L-Glutamine? Should I take it pre or post race? What do you guys think about corn syrup?
  4. Ok so Midmar is coming up. Coming of some very good training. So this week I need to recover. Doing 1 hour gym session consisitng of easy running and cycling and swimming and some steam bathing etc. Taking the following pills:- 1.) Cramp Block x 2 per day. If I do this for a week before the race then I dont cramp. Its seems to work better then just shoving them down during the race 2.) 2 x Moducare per day because who wants do get sick? 3.) 2 x Stamino Growth or somehting like that... What else should I take? L-Glutamine? Does all of these actually make a difference? Also the week after the Midmar I have to do the Otter trail run. So I need a super recovery shake for right after the race. Cant make it fresh so is there something off the shelves from Dischem you guys can recommend?
  5. *** thx. Gym dwcided to close their pool for the week. Will try and go to another one today. Getting tight. Will probably need to latxh onto someone else during the swim.
  6. Get some w/p shoes. It will save you plenty of blisters on a rainy day. I always take my trial running shoes and my normal dry weather shoes with...
  7. Ja but seriously he needs to play the last game. If we need to win by a big margin then might just as well play this oke. Maybe open with AB and Amla and bring Levi in at 3? If he does come off then we are in the semis.... (assuming Auz win)
  8. Tell them if they dont allow suits then I wont pay my R70. I see its gonna be lekker and rainy!!
  9. Jawel dalk moet hulle begin fles vat voor die game dan sal die nerves nie so erg pla nie....
  10. So.... Lets discount Pakistan as Auz should dispose of them. Say we play India and we bat first and get 150. How much must we bowl them out for? Or say they bat first and get 150. How fast must we get it? Obviously we would like to bat second so that we know exactly what we need to do how fast......
  11. The fact that Goosen has to be watched so closely means more space for our outside backs. With Morne everyone shifts channel cuz they know he cant break and even if he does it wont come to anything. Therefore the defence of Aus will be in 2 minds the whole time.... Remember a few years back when Brent Russel come on as flyhalf against Aus after J vd Westhuizen was injured? We won with like 50 points or something.....
  12. I think Aus is in for a hiding. They are a crap team with a good coach. We are a good team with a good coach but a crap gameplan. However I do believe Heyneke has learned his lesson. With the Goose at Flyhalf expect rythm in our backline and a player like Jean de Villiers to have a massive game. If our forwards dominate like they should then it should become a really long afternoon for the Australians...... I say Boks to take it by close to 20 points but it could be more.... There.... The Garf has spoken. Now watch his prophecy come true....
  13. I got a new 302 Rockshox with a u-turn and lockout funtion. It has been used once. My dad bought a new Mongoose 2 years back. He rode one race then won tyres at the lucky draw. When he came back from the shop where he won the tyres from he had a new shock on as the guy sold him a "lighter shock" for various reasons I dont care about. So he gave me the "old" shock. Needless to say it doesnt fit on my 26'er and have been lying around in my garage for 18 months now. I might just as well sell it. What is it worth? Any buyers in Bfn?
  14. Why would he now all of a sudden give Lambie game time? He gave him a total of 10min in the previous 5 tests. If he wanted tom give him game time he should have let him play curriecup last weekend. If Lambie comes on and plays crap can we really blame him? If you dont race for 6 months and only train and then suddenly race its not the same. You need match fitness
  15. Indeed.... I remember the one year when the Cheetahs won the cup for the first time it was Semi Finals time against the Sharks. The Cheetahs had relatively conservative game plan with kicking and driving and only going wide late in games when the opposition got tired. Rassie changed the game plan and they ran with everything they got. At half time they were leading by 30 points already and the game was over against a much better Sharks team on paper. Rugby has become to generic/scientific. I say bring back the unpredictable. A coach is supposed to only en sure a lekker environment in which players can express themselves. Sure the basics need to apply but dont have pe-planned moves for evey position on the field...... Let the players do what they want. Sure Morne was crap, because he had to follow a crap Bulls gameplan. I also cannot understand why the hell not Lambie is played. He is the future fact. Name one thing that Kirchner can do better than him? Goosen last year kicked like 90% of all his kicks over, people tend to forget that. With Heynekes game plan he might just as well choose Andries Bekker at fullback as he doesnt believe in the fullback coming into the line. It is evident in that when the Boks broke the line last time and had an overlap.... they skrikked so groot they moered the bal weg cause that wasnt part of the game plan....
  16. Why would you sub Goosen if he plays well? Hopefully the nicknaks man will be substituted in the 10th minute. Adriaan will make a good captain you are right.
  17. Yes I am settled in thx. No I wasnt - went for a run instead. Cool I will attend them swim schools ... if I am still alive after Midmar 70.3 next weekend.
  18. Hi Hans I moved to Bfn last weekend. Enjoy Emmarentia. Best to wear your wetsuit. its gonna be a cold one!
  19. Haha thx. I was referring to the color comment!! Yes yes right next to the flush capacitor and zodeon core reactor
  20. Thx Now I know exactly what is wrong
  21. So it is inside the frame? The part in which the combustion shaft and the modular rotor connects?
  22. WTF is a bottom bracket? The thing through which your pedals go?
  23. No Dave. That must be why I get so aggressive. Put me in water and have a claw. Why do you think I leave swim training until 10 days to the event?
  24. What is BB's? Ball Bearings? Gonna take it to the LBS and ask the oke to "fasten" my bike.
