There is a P5 being launched :drool:

I think its wonderful. Important to note that users can use the track for three hours. The gate times posted above by Joe Low is the time cyclists etc are allowed to enter the complex, and from that time you will be allowed three hours on the track, so you can enter at 8 and cycle until 11, or enter at 10:30 and cycle until 13:30. Sounds good.

The pod things work out expensive, as you pay per cup. Also, as the pod fit is patented, you are at the manufacturer's mercy for pod price increases and flavours etc. Keep that in mind when buying.

try getting Fikile Mbalula to join us as well, that way we can have the protection of the blue light brigade too

Absolutely brilliant!

Just got the notice - they are investigating opening the track to cyclists, walkers, runners and roller bladers on Sundays between 7 am and 10 am, for R20 per person. Whether it will be open would be dependent on feedback received. If you think you would use the track drop an email to pa@universalproperty.co.za and voice your support.

I would try my chances in the SCC. The fact that he agreed to pay 50% shows some sort of culpability, and your defence could be that you are better off with half than nothing. It will cost you nothing in the SCC, and worse case scenario, is that you end up with what you have now, which is nothing. My opinion is that he knows he was wrong and that since you are not going to sue for a couple of grand or come up to Jhb to knock on his front door, he is safe paying you nothing. Don't leave it, follow it through.

Seems like it was designed for body builders by a muscle guy, so that leaves me sceptical already.

A few months ago there was a similar story on 702 with David O'Sullivan. Same thing, guys had all his details, but there was also some stand-out thing that raised the fund's caution and they called the investor to confirm. Seems like a fairly new type fo scam.

It sucked.

My experience with them has always been positive, especially when the robots at the intersection of Woodlands Drive and Woodmead Drive is down. It always moves smoother when they are around.

If I remember correctly, the transport left Durban beachfront at around 4am last year.

I have a rechargable LED Lenser, think the model number is H7R. I use it as a headlight when doing game drives, and it is often brighter than the lights the game viewing vehicle uses to spot animals. Cost was R550. If you can get a bike mount bracket for that, your wife would be training in lighting conditions almost similar to daylight.

Why sink the ship? If it survived a tsunami intact and then floated for a full year while drifiting all the way across the ocean, surely it must be seaworthy? Or is this just the US wanting to blow stuff up again!

I don't think thats the price of the Pinarello. Thats the price of the Autostyle branded bikes.

DisChem sells it. Works like a bomb

He may as well have said "if it looks like a pigeon and it coo'ed like a pigeon...' because associations for duck go along the lines of lame duck and sitting duck, all are victim-type descriptions, definately not dangerous nuclear duck! Why not use something fearsome in true crowd pleasing rhetoric style, instead of just a duck.

And your bike weighs how much again?

of all the creatures on Earth, why a duck?

If this were turned abit on its head, if you needed to go somewhere on your way back from work occasioanlly, would you be willing to pay extra? If I were in your situation, I'd pay my half.

As cyclist we should understand the implications of a blocked number plate in a hit and run incident, and how vital it would be to tracking the perp down and getting him/her off the road. I would say that cops need to enforce "rolling violations" in that they should be driving around in unmarked cars to find dangerous and wreckless drivers and remove them from the road.

Consider you pay R350 to enter the Comrades marathon. That is just under R4 per km, or, if you take the full 12 hours, 48 cents per minute (@Eugene, this is value for your seconds). It has full road closure. And then there is the "catering" and the medics (stats from 2009): 46 Refreshment Tables 1350 litres of Coke & Cream Soda 350,000 sachets of Powerade 5000 sachets of Mageu 1,100,000 sachets of water 5,4 tons of bananas 448 pockets of oranges 1 ton of Chocolates 2 tons of baby potatoes 400kgs biscuits 400,000 plastic bottles 2500 litter bins 750 tubes of Deep Heat Health care stats: 16 Netcare 911 ambulances equipped with satellite tracking 6 Netcare 911 rapid response vehicles with advanced life support paramedics 4 Netcare 911 motorbikes (quads) with paramedics 1 dedicated helicopter 1 standby helicopter 8 medical first aid stations on route staffed by professional nurses and paramedical staff. These stations incorporate diabetic stations where blood sugar levels can be tested. 8 physio stations on route staffed by qualified physios and 3rd year physio students Medical tent at the finish staffed by 40 doctors and 20 nurses, including a 2-bed fully equipped ICU-type resuscitation unit An emergency resuscitation unit at the finish line St John’s Ambulance tent at the finish to attend to minor discomforts, provide rub downs, strapping and massages Physio tent at the finish Public first aid tent Now that's value for money!!!

How much did it cost, and how long did it take to make?

The name is Yunnan Baiyao. Used it at a running race when I cramped - all I could say was WOW! That stuff works. And it has the most interesting story behind it too... http://www.yunnan.co.za/cat2.php?catID=3

Unbelievable..... http://thechive.com/2012/02/23/girl-tattoos-boyfriend-of-1-week-on-her-arm-a-facebook-thread-ensues-12-photos/
