Jigghead

OK, Last year was my first and I managed 5hrs54 with cramp and a lot of other pain. Having said that, I'll be there with my cramp blockers and all the other cr~p. Hopefully I avoid the pain. EDIT: Entry Complete - See you all there...

No nothing, you missed nothing ????

Wonder how long it'll take for them to catch on, I've ammended my delivery address to the following: You Thieves C/O SAPS Bubba's Cell Polsmoor Prison Cape Town. I hope the can hang bikes on those bars.

I'm buying bikes for the whole of the hub, just lemme know what you're looking for

I've just ordered, online, around R500K worth of bikes, all separate orders, I used the name: You Thieves and used a gmail account: youthieves @ gmail.com The cell phone number I used when registering the account on their site was theirs, this could explain why the line is busy, they're probably trying to collect cash from themselves.

Garmin was added in addition to Polar

I think they stopped using sa-active in favor of doing the claims in house. I'm not sure there's anything clandestine about the change. All medical aids change something at his time of year. Multiply (Momentum's version of Vitality) has also made some big changes.

His & Hers colors. They should look into a tandem. Thanks to all for a good ride. Beers, burger and swim afterwards capped it all off. Nice to meet all of you.

Not far out for me. Mind and body cr~pped themselves when the alarm went off. But I'm almost awake and already on my way.

Roadie events don't count

Entered all of my events and got my 5000 bonus points for doing over 5 events. If you use a Polar, you can also get around 200 pts per exercise by registering them as a partner.

I'm locked and loaded. Very keen, glad we're still advocating a slow ride, I've done a bit of damage to my body/ training with November's activity. 06h00, I've even dusted off my camelbak...

So, why is there no MTBKen registered here. Congrats, this is great news. Awesome execution Ken!!!

OK, ready, my GPS knows where I'm going. See you all at 06h00...

Don't worry, I'm sure there's a little bit of tonsil in all of us, it's the c0ck part that I'm not sure of...

Just to add some more stir to the pot, doesn't look as if the car up ahead made use of the 1.5m passing distance. Just saying. There is such a fine line on these things, but I'm inclined to think that one should try and stick to the rules as often as possible. Let's not forget that idiot that mowed down a cyclist at the coast a while back. If I recall he was drunk and tried to flee the scene. Traffic volume may have been low at the time and this time it was the motorist who was to blame, but the point is that it only takes one car to kill a bunch of cyclists. I was also reminded of this when running the Soweto Marathon last month, there were a lot of signs up commemorating those ladies killed by a driver in Midrand whilst out on a morning run some time back. That was also early morning and probably pretty light traffic, but again, only 1 car needed to extinguish 5 lives. If StevieL had fumbled his camera and nailed a few of these guys during the recovery (yeh yeh, I know you were a passenger ) , we would have crucified him on this very site, irrespective of whether there were high traffic volumes or they were riding up to three abreast.

OK, so I go over the the neighbor upon his return from work and am about to ask why his daughter was worried about my cat. The son, who was not involved at all was there and said he saw our cat get over the 4m boundary wall and jump into the servitude which only our complex has access to and also is surrounded by 4m walls and electric fences. Apparently a small can can get in over 4m walls but not out. So, I find Bubbles looking very poked, covered in fleas and puffed up when I approach. Cat is happy, bathed and I have been next door to thank our neighbor's son. My 4 yr old looked as if she was going to cry when I got him back. All's well that ends well. Glad I didn't go over with any accusations.

Hope so, the walls to the estate are 3.5m high and the bars on the gates are not wide enough for a cat. The guard seems to think that he's friendly enough to have been "adopted" by whoever may have picked him up. Let's hope he is just under a sprinkler somewhere. Should teach him a lesson.

I've found that if you trap the perp and put a sprinkler on him for an hour or two, he will stop coming into your garden. I did that after I got tired of having my house clean and deodorised. As far as the ferocity of cat fights go, I had a cat that lived for around 20yrs and he needed to get sown up quite often after fights, so they can get nasty. I just want some finality on the fate of my kitty.

We have a neighbor who is a bit otherwise, not very friendly but we have no real need to interact. We live in a small estate (22 houses). We also have two cats one of which likes to visit on occasion. Now we've only had them for seven months, but they have developed a pretty stringent routine. Sleep all day, bugger around from around 16h00-19h00 then come inside and sleep. We keep them inside at night. Around two months ago my 16 yr old son had to go next door to collect the wanderer. Strange people these, they didn't even open the door but chose to pass the cat over the wall passing a comment that our kitty was lucky given that theirs would kill any other cat that comes into their yard. Now, ours still being relatively small and theirs being a generally big cat, this worried me a bit but i just thought she was being a little bit of a windgat. This was until last night, I was swinging my to smaller children on the swing when the lady of the house peers over with her daughter and asks if Bubbles (our cat) was all right. Now it was around 19h00 and just before bed time for my kids. She said her daughter was not keen to sleep until she new that our kitty was fine. A little weird I thought but I humored the little girl and said he was fine and that she mustn't worry because he's a little crazy. I hadn't seen him but that was not unusual at that time of day. I put my girls to sleep, lying down with the one who is a bit scared of the dark etc. and fell asleep on her bed. My wife then wakes me at 22h00 to go to bed and says she can't find Bubbles. I get my torch and do a general once over of the estate and find nothing. So, we leave a window open in two of the rooms in the hope that his wanderings have taken him a little further than usual. I woke this morning and looked around the estate and found nothing again. I went next door and asked if maybe our kitties had fought last night and was told that it hadn't happened. Still no cat though. I'm more than just a little suspicious, given the daughter's concern last night, that maybe my kitty may have fallen foul of either their large vicious cat or one of their dogs and they're hiding this fact. Now if this is the case, the whole family will be devastated as this little guy have crept under all of our skin. I am aware that cats do wander and get themselves into trouble from time to time so if this is the case, I'm not really going to hold anyone accountable, assuming I could. All I really want here is to get some idea of what has happened to our pet so that we can get closure. How then, do I re approach these guys with my suspicions without causing them to clam up when all I want to do is put the puzzle together. My kids are upset and I can't help but think that there is more to my cat's disappearance than meets the eye. Any ideas hubbers?

Best Buy has them for the same price. I've checked and they seem to be the best option.

Ordered my GoPro Hero 3 Black yesterday. Will be delivered to a mate in the USA and he will bring it home for me before Christmas.

This is awesome news. Glad she's back where she belongs.

These days you never know if the guy is armed or has a knife. Trying to take it could result in injury or worse. At least there is something that could identify this guy now.

If only all of cycling was thing honest, we may even have had a TDF winner for the first half of the 2000-2010 decade... BTW, glad you're OK. Good luck with the UCI inquiry...
