  1. ******* sucks man I met barry through the hub way back when. He hosted Fanie and myself for one very debauched 94.7 weekend. I have fond memories of time spent with him, and the general banter on the hub and twitter with him. He is one of my longest cycling friends and I will miss him dearly

  3. in all seriousness i'm bleak that i'm missing it. The vibe is just amazing, and theres something to be said for pedaling your lungs out @ 3am in the morning up some gnarly single track through a pine forest We had already planned out team comeback and were eyeing a win again, when I realized i'd be in the middle of the indian ocean on a ship. Maybe 2018!
  4. such a rad event! Dane, you're lucky i'm not entering this one - your title is safe for another year
  5. its not an arbitrary line. The line is drawn by WADA. Its called the banned substances list. By partaking in the sport, you agree on that line. You dont get to compete in the sport then afterwards complain about the line. If you dont like the line, dont compete in the sport
  6. Fahmy Galant | SAIDS <fahmy@saids.org.za> 1:36 PM (1 minute ago) to zayin Dear Mr. Krige Thank you for your query. For every adverse analytical finding, an athlete is given an opportunity to present his/her side to ensure a process of fairness.
  7. taken yesterday afternoon because of how ridiculous i look. swimming goggles work great at keeping smoke out your eyes will remember to find a straw hat for patch (and dangle) next time im firefighting
  8. yes in hindsight i was kicking myself
  9. yesterday was tough. I spent the whole night firefighting, took an hour sleep, then spent until 2pm fighting more fires and co-ordinating rescue services in the estate. I took a very slow 25min walk with my daughter and the dogs yesterday afternoon, then passed out for 14hours
  10. Terry thank you so much for your assistance last night. We're all so grateful
  11. Just had to walk my horse to firlands. Fire isn't threatening our house just yet but rather safe than sorry
  12. yeah, but that was and international thing. I'm not quite sure if no-needles applies to local riders?
  13. I just googled and I see the ship DOES have a running track, so maybe i'll just take my garmin with
  14. yes, you should have asked - what if you were allergic and died? Also, I'm not sure if no-needles is a UCI policy or a WADA policy.
  15. ok so, i'm going on a cruise at the end of Jan, and recording a 20min session might be tricky. The ship has fully kitted gym, so a treadmill session would be fine. What kind of device could i use for a treadmill session that I could upload to strava with?
  16. sounds like someone with a very expensive bike and a 9mm should take a cycle around the area
  17. sure, but there is a hearing as part of the initial tribunal and i'm guessing this info would have been presented? unless there is some new info which has come to light
  18. my limited understanding is that that has already happened. the process is something like this - athlete gets notified of adverse finding - athlete gets opportunity to present his side, lawyers, etc - once all hearings have been had, a decision is made - if decision is that adverse finding stays, then press release is issued so all these clowns who bleat about how it was a mistake have already tried to convince the powers that be, and they didnt buy it. So their next best bet is to make the public think they are being unfairly done in
  19. I've got a few 30m tall blue gums I need chopped down. I'll supply the axe. Let me know once you're done how much of a workout you think it was
