  1. I have no sympathy for the dead dude. If you play with guns and point them at people and terrorise them then there are consequences to that. Pitty the other two got away but hopefully they can track them down. I am sure that these are the same 3 that have been doing all the jackings. Thats one less armed parasite on the spruit to worry about.
  2. Will it be possible to ride jonkershoek on Friday or saturday before the event on Sunday ?
  3. Rode the Red yesterday again, its really rutted in the corners and seems to have taken a hammering since the riders from Origin of trails rode it. Not sure that it was the best idea to have hundreds of riders hammer it before it had time to settle. Its going to need some rain and some TLC some time soon.
  4. Rode the red route this morning, was nice and damp. By far the best trail I have ridden in a long long time, can't get the smile off my face. A lot of thought has gone into making this trail flow -big up to the guys who have put so much work into the trails. Cant imagine how good it will be when it has been ridden in and bedded down.
  5. Any update on the completion of the Red Line, will it be open by the weekend ? Holding thumbs
  6. I hope these guys get one in the exit chute while in the holding cells. Disgraceful bunch.
  7. Watched the clip what a bunch of scumbags they look like used car dealers, hope Cycle Scinece go under and these two scumbags loose everything.
  8. don't know why these people don't put up a route profile - its like entering blind - no clue of the route or the profile - doesn't look like its very well organised.
  9. Ha Ha looks like I am famous. Its a pleasure man. I think i have been given more tubes from other riders than i have given out, so its all good karma. Glad you made it home.
  10. Santa Cruz is an amazing brand. I ride the Tallboy LTC and its by far the best bike i have owned and that includes the other brands mentioned above. My brother is on a Tallboy 2 and I have a few friends riding them and they all love them. Once you have had a Santa Cruz its hard to ride anything else. If you are still unsure take one for a test ride. @Johny Bravo - i don't know what you been smoking but a specialised lighter and better components are is going to cost you a whole lot more than R65k they Sworks epic is retailing for around R110k.

  13. Hi Guys Did a lipogram today to check cholestrol levels. I have been on LCHF for about +- 2 months. A little concerned with the results : Total cholestrol 7.1 up from 5.1 a year ago HDL 1.6 up from 1.3 a year ago LDL 4.8 up form 3.3 a year ago I dont have HDL and LDL from just before starting the diet but when i did my Discovery test a few months ago total was 5.76, so it has gone from 5.76 to 7.1 over the period of 2 months on LCHF. Any advise maybe cutting back on saturated fats like cheese etc. Cheers
  14. Hi Guys, Looking for a bit of advise. I have been LCHF for about two months now. Initial period was terrible, no energy etc. That improved somewhat and think i have adapted to burning fat. The one problem that i am finding is that my legs seem to "lactate" as soon as i up the tempo. It feels almost as if my muscles run out of energy and i have to back off to let my legs recover, before being able to push the pace again. I have been training on water and have used super starch for races. If i do two consecutive days of riding my legs feel very heavy ie recovery post ride seems to be slower than normal. My heart rate generally is very high on rides > 70% of max, to keep it down i would have to ride really slowly, i know this probably puts me in a zone where my body will be trying to burn glucose, but note sure how to avoid this. I have been upping my sodium intake but still feel fairly dehydrated after a ride. Ant advise would be appreciated
