  1. I get a load of SMS spam, I hate it. Internet service providers block email spam but cellphone providers promote it. 90% of emails sent are spam, in 11 months my mail server has blocked 4460666 spam emails. I think the cellphone service providers should credit our cell accounts with 50% of the cost of sending the spam
  2. Only if they are a WASPA member
  3. Stuff I entered lately Wilro Cradle Autumn Festival Bela Bela Kremetart And signed up on SA-Active Can't think of any others Anyone?
  4. Mee too, I wonder who sold them our details
  5. Is that a Chinarello?
  6. +1 to everyone above that said it is all about consuming less calories than you burn and it doesn't matter how you get the calories. That being said, to live a healthy lifestyle you should balance carbs, protein and fat - you can worry about this later, lose the weight first. I lost 28kg in 28 weeks and I didn't do a lot of exercise. Now that I am at my goal weight I am concentrating on getting fit, strong and healthy.
  7. Anyone interested in riding in the week during the day? Cycle Science guys are not doing the early morning rides at the moment.
  8. They stuck my cut together with sticky tape, much neater than staples
  9. Nice meeting you David and well done :clap:
  10. There was an extreme difference in the way my fingers felt the 2 days. I would say the Black Diamond worked well but as I say, the 2 rides were different. If you compare the material type and thickness of the Louis Garneau Wind Tex glove and the Black Diamond Windweight then the BD looks like it should be warmer. Make sure you don't buy the BD Lightweight for R299.00, you want the Windweight for R320.00. They have both at the Anatomic shop in Northcliff.
  11. Yes, as is. So far they seem good but..... It is hard to compare Saturday's ride with Sundays, Saturday was at 2 degrees and then quite a bit of downhill to start the ride. Sunday was at 4 degrees and quite a lot of uphill at the start of the ride
  12. I am a Gatorskin fan @ 9 bar
  13. I would go Silverback
  14. I bought Anatomic Maxi Therm Thermal Socks and tried them on Saturday with no booties. They seemed to keep my toes warm but I can't be sure, perhaps the pain in my numb fingers was too much to notice my toes
  15. Did you also get the Black Diamond Windweight gloves? I tested mine Sunday and all was good at 4 degrees, pity I didn't have them to try out on Saturday's 2 degree ride.
  16. And that is probably why there were so few cars :lol:
  17. I think they sell them because they don't make their own and feel these are pretty good. They do not sell ski gear. Yes on Sunday, it was 4 degrees. It was 2 degrees on Saturday
  18. The Anatomic factory shop in Northcliff sells them for R320.00
  19. No problem riding with the ski gloves, not bulky at all
  20. Are you referring to the DMD motorbike gloves I posted at the start of the thread or the Black Diamond ski gloves?
  21. I seem to be maintaining 67.5 which is 1kg more than my lightest weigh in. I would like to think 3 months of gym has added a bit of muscle
  22. It is not bulky, it is actually a glove liner http://www.blackdiamondequipment.com/en-glbl/shop/ski/snow-gloves/windweight Hands were sweating when I finished my ride - lucky they are machine washable Even though they are liners they are also designed to be used as is, they have leather on the palms and stuff to help you grip on the first 2 fingers
  23. I tried out my LG Wind Tex gloves yesterday morning - I thought my fingers were going to drop off. I went and bought some skiing gloves and tried them today and was warm. It is hard to compare though because it was 2 degrees warmer this morning.
  24. Well done FRAIL, you are a champ
