  1. Fanie behoort dan seker die K2C te maak?
  2. Just spoke with Leon, as i have to start thinking about new tyres. he gave good and honest advice, not trying to take me for a ride Will pick them up later this week. Good on you South Bay Cycles! and for what it's worth, welcome in the neighbourhood!
  3. At last I find someone with the same strategy as me! FrancoisC, for someone talking about moangatte, you are quite a vocal chap, calm down boet, no need to get your knickers in a knot, just because you got your goodies at at good price. You have all the reason in the world to smile and not wine about it One great thing about living in a largely democratic society is the fact that each person can buy, search for goodies wherever he/she wants to.
  4. So guys I went to see a surgeon yesterday, have a problem with these veins in lower left leg. Was starting to become quite serious, the dr said I should thank some family member, as these are "oorerflik". Its quite hectic as they will make a cut from ankle right up to knee on inside of leg and at every place where a vein comes through the muscle, it will be sealed/cut off, something like that. The operation is scheduled for the 24th of this month If all goes well, I will be out of action (read training) for 4weeks max Now I havent been able to train much this year, 2 times a week (including weekend LSD ride- MTB) If I get the green light, I will have 4 and half months to start basically from scratch to prepare for Karoo to Coast. Dont just wanna finish it. So now the question is: * Do I train from today until the 23rd like a madman in order to further improve my base, or continue as normal * and will I make it to prepare for K2C if I have to start basically from scratch? Thanks!
  5. Mamma by die huis sal self ook nie te gelukkig wees nie
  6. Are you the one with the cow-suit?
  7. Thats bound to get him going like a rocket
  8. sorry guys, I just have to say this (doubt if I'll ever get the chance again) This fred ies jooselis wifout piektjas Hi Jackoff +1
  9. Bugger the race-packs/goodie bags, I just wanna ride
  10. My son (just over 2 years) always "helps" me to wash my bike, got him his own little bucket and brush, and it almost always ends up with us splashing each other soaking wet. Involving your kids from a young age in what you do is almost guaranteed to get them cycling too when grown up. just so awesome
  11. An essential item in preparing for race day is prolly a bike as well? Sorry for that, just had to As a MTB'er, I always take the following: One/two bottles/Camelback depnding on lenght of race Pump (I dont run tubeless) Saddlebag with Multi-tool, 2quick links, slime peel&stick pacthes, tyre levers and one tube with slime On my body I carry stuff like gels, or whatever I take with me on race day to eat/drink. Makes more sense if you have stuff to carry, to put that on your bike as far as possible, much more stable methinks just my 2c
  12. quickly tried it,,,,got around 2650 on first try, nice,
  13. Must say that Berocca Boost's not too bad at all! *Hijack on* Regard is that your real name? it's my son's name, just spell it Reghardt. Wanna get a tattoo with his starsign and meaning of his name "strong ruler/brave warrior" combined Hijack off
  14. Was just busy getting back into the swing of things...ai jai jai anyways
  15. Thanks to all. It confirms that I know what I should have done...flippit. Anyways...lemme pop over to the chemist for a prick...erm...Vit B injection
  16. Thanks Dude, Vit B last week Wednesday, will go get some now and some of that Berocca Boost, have two more days of Anti Biotics left so will take rest of week off....eish man. makes sense what u said, They must revoke my dr;s lisence to practise
  17. I know you shouldnt train while on Anti-Biotics....but flippit Had tonsilitis a month or so ago, got Augmentin, was fine, left it for two days after it was finished and started training light. Was at Dr AGAIN last week, this time throat infection (have a little germ transporter, who imports the stuff from his school) The idiot of a dr said I can start training again after two days, and like an idiot I did just that and went for long ride yesterday. So today, I feel lekker k*k. Now what, do I finish the course and wait and see what happens, or should I take off training for a week? So desperate to get back on track again
  18. Yep, you got it right there. I mean, just look at the way CWC operate If i can get the job I want in CT, would "immigrate" immediately
  19. Well good luck with your battle hope you get it sorted. Thats why I would think very carefully before ordering on-line, somehow my surname is coupled to chaos and wrong orders and issues with suppliers 70% of the time!
  20. Agent, Check your pm dude
  21. Is there no way that one can arrange to pick up the stuff from them directly? See they in Pta East?
  22. I will start with it this weekend, and let you know. I must perhaps also add, that I train and race for the fun of it, and not to be in top ten every race, well maybe one day in the super masters class or sumtin like dat! But I make sure that after each ride, I had a good workout, so ja. Thats the way I think about it
  23. I thought of a new plan for 2011. So far I have trained 75% on IDT each time for an hour or just less, use water for it. LSD ride (mtb) and trail riding on weekend I will take either 32GI or Bio Anabolics (both low GI) but only one bottle and that's it. Off course the odd sarmie, and bar will go along, but not always Will then do the same in races (Half Marathons) In Marathons as someone else said will take a bar or so along and longer races (such as Karoo to Coast) will take the sarmie banana etc along
  24. DAMN, to be stuck in France,,,,you poor thing... anyways Like some hubbers said, the trick of speaking afrikaans first and then ask if you could try english, works like a charm. Damn this brings back good memories, southern France, Duffel Beer, cosy little hotel, winter, seeing snow on the Pyrenees Mountain tops...
