  1. I think the class should be on a Friday ... It just makes more sense
  2. haha I learnt this a very funny way whilst in Bern. I went to a restaurant and took up a position myself, small 2 seater right on the end of the balcony (I was alone at the time). I was then told I must go sit at this huge 12 seater round table in the middle of the place ... I was like ok but that a bit silly. Within 10 mins the table was full with various people - maybe 5 separate groups Imagine Migro/Coop caffateria without table sharing
  3. Thats how it works in Europe and a lot of places in Cape Town ... just saying
  4. JGR

    Roth 2014

    So I want to get this right - you met a German guy on holiday and now you are going to share apartments?
  5. The one fuels the other and vice versa
  6. If the entry fee goes to charity you can deduct it from your tax return
  7. DG article on gear ratios last month was excellent and othe okes have a good sense of humour
  8. LOL indeed ..... you clearly mean just the frame and fork
  9. Higher inherent emotional intelligence
  10. A fair while and pick up a copy at the LBS, the owners writes the odd article. Some ex-Getaway guys involved I think
  11. We dont have the telecoms infastructure to support VC's and secondly imagine cycling 20kms to client ..in a suit ... in summer
  12. I was just referring to increases and inflation in general - but agreed people are ramping the prices not gradually lifting them. The assumption of the rand/$ is that they are brand new and imported recently. If they were just from a stock pile in the back then we /you are really getting ripped a new one
  13. I posted a thread on how food has double in the last 5 years a while back Food in this country is more expensive than the US and EU on most products except meat
  14. Looks like you got lucky .....
  15. Focus on the thread not your religous views as it has nought to do with the topic
  16. Die Cape of good Dope
  17. What if the member lets you in .....
  18. ]haha I wasnt at Selborne but he was - we played against each other (hockey) and together at provincial stuff There was an article in the Herlad I think - both looking very sad in the picture Are you also from the slum?
  19. Jeff at triangle is great (although as his best man i might be biased) I know Blaine from high school and he has always been a decent oke but have heard nothing but bad of Garth. werent they banned from Ironman?
  20. R900 a day ... i dont understand events like this. A single day event costs between R250 - R300 a day but the moment its more than one day the prices per day triples? Would really like to give a stage race ago but there is hardly anything priced well enough to give it a chance or a first timer.
  21. I guess all main stream sports receive the lime light ..... To think Elton Jantjies got over R2m for his 'season' at the stormers and lets not talk about Wayne PArnell getting over a R1m for a 4 week tournement and then getting injured and not bowling a ball. Either way he is a legend!
  22. Im not playing down their plight but I was referring to the 'award' each respectively recieved. Im also quite sure Impey struggled with sponsorship starting out. My issues is the R15k he was given .... it was a joke - on par with adminstrators flights to the FINA event
  23. There is a difference between a fast swimmer, strong swimmer and good swimmer and you dont have to be any to complete 2kms. 2kms or 40 mins is not far considering this is an ultra event (in a dam) Canoe triatheltes? thing of the past and I would say that changing from canoe to swim made the sports much more accesible
  24. I think any person owning a canoe is familr with the water and most likely a decent swimmer - i dont see people who are afriad of the water having canoes ... just a thought
  25. Look like a welding mask for a helmet as well ..
