Edition 507

Sias, I am saying that with tongue in cheek but just maybe the sh*t should hit the fan, maybe the whites should retaliate. How many more farmers need to be slaughtered before something is done? Violence begets violence. Maybe its bra Jules' turn to beget a bit of violence.

Actually there are always three sides to a story. Your version, their version and the truth. I don't believe anyone will behave in such a way 'just because'. Perhaps your wife was not looking and turned in front of him almost taking him out, in which case I would also bang on her window so that she would catch a wake up.

A black man calling a white man a 'boer' is the same a white man calling a black man a 'kaffir'. The racial connotations are identical. Unfortunately Bra Jules is leading by example. Killing Eugene is open season on treating farm 'kaffirs' like sh*t. Enjoy the suffering black man, if you want more, just vote for Jules. Remember, reconciliation is a two way street!

I can't comment on the locals, but my suppliers are usually Nigerian with a strict COD policy

I felt the same way about it as you do until the Polar techie explained to me why they prefer to do it. It is a very sensitive instrument and bricklayer hands like mine could damage something if it is not done with the delicacy and care of a brain surgeons hands. My pliers, screwdriver and hammer are not really considered jewelers tools which could result in damage to the altimeter and seals etc. So I listen to the techies. By the way, have you ever tried to buy a Polar battery?

The motorbiker is just back in his crack. Clever word play dude

My mum worked at the docks. Maybe you're my Dad?

I volunteer driving the bus

Pray that God gives you guidance in making this tough decision!

Someone stole the road, or at least a helluva big chunk of it. What does one do with a 10 meter square piece of road?

The guy was cross training

Ja, probably those colords people

So BigH, are you a pile driver?

Tough sh*t man!! Whoops, serious wrong choice of words Tough luck man, sympathies, and I hope you will be able to ride Sunday!

That's quite an improvement from the first one1978 - 446 finishers 1980 - 1119 1981 - 13721982 - 1347 (slightly less than previous year)1983 - 1st/1829?? 2:411984 - 2nd/2023? 2:48 1988 - 6th/8707?? 2:40Those are results of Francois du Toit, competed in the first ever tour in 1978, won in 1983 and is still kicking ass today!Im sure he can tell you loads about the changes in bikes & equipment he has experienced but that Pinarello Prince remains a beaut!<table id="table2" style="border: 1px solid rgb148, 160, 147;" align="center" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" width="100%"><t><tr><td ="tbtwo" align="center"></td><td ="tbtwo" align="left"></td><td ="tbtwo" align="center"></td><td ="tbtwo" align="center"></td><td ="tbtwo" align="center"></td></tr></t></table> Very interesting how the Argus almost grew exponentially to the point where it has to be capped due to logistics and safety. It reflects how cycling has grown in popularity, from being a very selective sport to being one of mass appeal.

In those days the Argus was just picking up in popularity in Cape Town but was practically unheard of in JHB. Travelling 1400 k's to do a 3hr fun ride was considered insane. Nowadays, the number of people travelling from all over the world to do this fun ride is insane

Got this off Racetec. The results from my first Argus. Check the total number of finishers!!! Geez, I think some of the lower order groups are that size alone these days 1984/03/31 The Argus Cycle Tour 104 03:18:47 151/2023

Here's a blast from the past. Me on the far left riding an 1983 ALAN with toe straps nog al. Still got the bike. Did a 2:43 on that bike way back in my youth

Rather than swearing, I would rather take God's or some other fictitious religious figures name in vain
