    Couldn't agree more .... skipping Xterra though but looking forward to GWWW - 3km Swim, 70 Bike, 30 Run R495 limited field and takes place in a national park.

    Eleven Cape Town

    Highly over rated race imo ....few boring flat loops around big bay ELEVEN Prize Money Only for Olympic distance Overall Male and Female 1st:R1000 2nd:R750 3rd:R500 Entry fee R880 at current exchange rates ... If you come second it doesn't even cover your entry? Seems a bit odd.
  3. err you mean you have space for 2 bikes

    That is quite popular Gary, they sometime have full packages.

    He would say it was from the structure he put into place which are bearing fruit now Jokes aside I get the sense that the players did really buy into him - its basically the same team but lets see how they get along outside of Aus before saying they are a force once again

    Fortunately for him there is a panel for the national side. Interesting that Thami might not have made the side but gets elevated to Capt. I think NMcK said he didn't want to be Capt a while ago so was probably a non starter but don't see how someone who isn't an automatic selection could be Capt.
  7. I think the 20% would more accurate as it is relative. My last 70.3 run split was more than 20% of my PB or even recent time. You are just a machine so 90kms would hardly touch sides for you - as I didn't come from a cycling background the ride really kills my run.
  8. Joe Friel says you should be able to run 20% faster than your goal time for IM. in your case 3hours 12 mins could be your number then ... based on PB.
  9. That is closer to what a pro would do ... as per the multiple interviews and articles ive read. 70kms a week at 12km/hr is about 6 hours of running possibly more for slower sessions + 12 hrs of riding and 4 hours of swimming ... then add 30-40 mins to get to and from training and a bit of stretching Thats well over 25 hrs plus? for a working age grouper? Maybe guys like Kyle who work a few hours a day but not for the majority who, like me, work upward of 50 hrs a week.
  10. BBoooooo
  11. I can see him on the roof from my office ... he is still there. http://www.news24.com/Multimedia/South-Africa/Man-threatens-to-jump-off-CT-Civic-Centre-20140116
  12. What about a dynamic IP address and then you would have to prove that person wrote the message and not some person that walked past an unlocked PC. But an interesting one - Carte Blanche had a social media special this last sunday and spoke about people being prosecuted about their tweets Also a boxer that went to confront a troll giving him abuse - it was priceless. The boxer was tweeting he is on the way and they guy, thinking he was joking carried on taunting him until the boxer tweeted a picture of the street sign of his road ......
  13. Im looking out the other side to see if this guy is going to jump or not - he has been on the roof since 10!
  14. Couldn't resist
  15. Huh ... I thought it was a Mandela coin?
  16. Gotcha suckers Now im RICH and chilling with my home boys!
  17. Could have fooled me reading the threads the last few days .... actually more like Jerry Springer
  18. I know you work across the road from me .....
  19. After decades and countless denials I will admit it - I am Lance Armstrong

    swim sets

    I went to see Natalie Tissink for analysis, best R350 I spent. 45 min session, plus DVD and feedback session. Im a decent swimmer but hoping to go under 30 mins and her input was great
  21. Cant be many around. Maybe a place like Motorstars would know the owner .... or rented him the car. They would also, in all likely hood do the repairs to the car

    Cricket......

    How are you reading it? Power struggle within the team? To many cooks in the kitchen? Alviro has always come across as a very level headed and calm person (I don't know him from Adam) so something must have riled im a lot to throw away the captaincy before a match. He is a national player who respects the game ... weird
  23. Hope all are ok - I thought it was Kloof st, not Kloof Rd.
  24. Name the stores .... for interest of course
  25. I drive via kloof street to work and didn't see anything this morning - around 7h30. Hectic!
