when is the second test starting?

that pic is a bit scary. would be nice to see him compete at the top level again though

please post

park at century city, take an easy gentle ride into town to warm up and then ride back afterwards to cool down.

i don't think you'll need a wetsuit. The water is likely to be around 20 degrees and that's not bad for 1.5km

well done. just be glad it wasn't in CT yesterday. Temp went up to around 45 in stellenbosch, paarl area. I registered around 39 in the century city area

it's great to carry a spare tubby but what happens if you have more than one puncture on a ride, aren't you a bit stuffed then. At least with a clincher you had keep putting patches on and you can carry a lot of patches.... or am I missing something.

the end is near, we need to start singing for rain

this seems crap expensive simply to walk around a company and then ride on roads you could probably ride on for free

don't think I've posted this set before. Did it this morning and quite enjoyed it 100 easy freestyle 200 (50m kick breast,back,free) 300 4x75 fast 400 pull 500 2x250 fast 600 (200 back,breast,free) 700 (100easy, 50 fast, 100 easy, 50 fast, 100 easy, 50 fast, 100easy, 50 fast 100 easy 700 easy freestyle or whatever you feel like

hey ramrod - what car are those rims going on?

the group set on this gumtree bike looks new, the manual or price tag in the front wheel, no pedals.... all looks too dodgy

I seriously want us to win but never under estimate the aussies. They can have 5 wickets down and still put on 400. The game is far from over and we've got a long way to go

better than a river of yellow and green

that's a cool pic

well done jigghead. condolences though to the family who lost a husband and dad in the swim

I like this thread

ouch

the omega's are probably in the region of R45000 at least

entries for the swim are open http://www.bcmile.co.za/ very well organised event. 4 x 1.6km swims starting every hr. you can do as many of then as you want.

my only recommendation is get one that fits. orca are also good

thanks. mine started to leak so had to stop using them.

26 or 29?

there's a bit of a discussion around kicking on one of the other threads. But basically you don't need to stress about doing loads of kicking training. You basically just need to keep your legs up as you're doing. I find those kick boards are difficult to use. So I kick with my arms stretched out in front without a board. And then I do about 4 freestyle strokes in every 25m. I can't kick for the whole length at the moment. Over time I might get better but for now this is enough
