    I got me and the Wife the Ultimate Direction AK3.0 and Ultra Vesta vests. Best purchases ever. ​It was a tough call between the Salomon vests and UD but after seeing how strange some of the Salomon packs looked when fully loaded and bulging around the hips, I preferred the UD vests and the fact they fit high on the back. https://ultimatedirection.com/ak-mountain-vest-3-0/ https://ultimatedirection.com/ultra-vesta/

    That "studio footage" was pretty impressive. ​They had entire sets built out on the N2 towards Somerset West, the town, a few of the Ships, etc. Looks impressive seeing a fully rigged wooden ship while heading home on the N2.

    Snap! ​Was wondering why I didn't get my points for Exxaro today! ​Realised that I keep picking the wrong one when using my mobile!

    Thanks to Team Bulls and a bad Exxaro choice I dropped over 100places! Damn!

    Would also be great if the drop down options had the same names as the race register? Mixed category has a Thomas and Johan?

    Awesome clip but I have to say, less of the riding uphill footage, they just look strange, haha!

    Work in the medical field, even these puppies made out of carbon fibre carry disclaimers that there's no guarantee that you will not injure your knee wearing them. There are so many variables as mentioned before! http://p.vitalmx.com/photos/forums/2015/05/26/92432/s1200_Screen_Shot_2015_05_26_at_5.50.54_PM.jpg

    Yeah, dilute it for plants or straight down the drain to eliminate odours apparently.

    Yip, they don't even have to fit into each other, there's a kind of tray/ seperator at the bottom in order to collect the fertilizer probiotic liquid stuff that would be the only tickt thing to source/ make and a tap with seal at the bottom. But at the end of the day it was also about supporting local.

    Ordered off the site and had it delivered direct. If you sign up to the newsletter you get a discount too. You can also order off Faithful to Nature website but even with the additional delivery fee it works out cheaper to go direct

    Yip, i've got 2 bins. ​Amazing to see how much food waste there is!
  12. Epic Rookie
    Anybody used this before and what's the best way to get it back in the garden? ​Just started using one and it's half-full already. https://www.bokashishop.co.za/bokashi-food-waste-kits-c-1/bokashi-food-waste-recycling-starter-kit-special-save-r1000-p-2.html?zenid=0c5q05u1p4fp6e4ne00fjd4gb5

    And some local flavour apologies for the poor quality video, guy called Dave Knowles covers Massive Attack - Teardrops https://youtu.be/yWMKVefizBQ

    Epic cover by Ben Howard, Wife thought his was the original:

    WOW! ​That's the Knife's Edge Trail I think? I've run it before with a howling wind and poor visibility but you definitely get a sense of the sheer drops to each side without even seeing them. Had a few "sit-down and think" moments on that section!
  16. Epic Rookie
    Best of luck out there!

    Anybody else go to CT Fest of Beer? Pretty disappointing, beers weren't that great, smaller stands than last year and can't believe some of the awards winners but have to agree on DPBC Grapefruit IPA being the best. Feel like i'd rather spend my money on actual beers I like.

    You should have got a mail, I was given the choice of either having the board posted to me or collecting it from Complete Cyclist in Hout Bay. I'd follow up witht them, besides I'm not too sure if the trails re-opened after the work being done earlier this week.
  19. Epic Rookie
    Am I the only one who's first reaction was Ariane who? Took a second to realize, haha.
  20. Epic Rookie
    Just out of interest, are these trails accessible to general public? ​Permits? Routes?

    This is absolute gold, my friends kids name is Sloane. "Never register your child at home affairs during tea time. It will be named after a pastry. Please welcome SCOANE Harper Forman. "

    The Americans! Binge watching it at the moment, it's been around for a while already and think it's up to Season 4. Not too sure if it's been mentioned on here already.
  23. Epic Rookie
    Done! Can't wait to do a few laps!
  24. Epic Rookie
    Yeah, I thought so too. The HR max wouldn't have given her anything because we really didn't push it, even stopped for coffee and a muffin at K-bosch but I thought at least the 30min+ speed data. She did it with her FitBit Blaze and when she logged the workout it just said activity too slow for points or something like that. Strange
  25. Epic Rookie
    I have, nothing seems to have changed too much except now I get points for doing activities wth lower average HR. Eg: My wife and I did a super chilled 12km trail run, just over 2 hrs with avg HR around 120bpm . I got 450 points and she got none, I've signed up on the Endurance level and she hasn't.
