  1. How many mambas you found digging in that bush bru?
  2. Trek Fuel EX. Sweet.
  3. Nigel all good bru, just one jump that is too small, probably the one you talking about. Can see someone bombing that and landing on their front wheel and tip and rolling. Probably me. Otherwise all good. You guys have done a lot of work there. Any chance of removing the slippery cross angle root that runs across the trail , high up on the original section?
  4. Can't be that high, that's like the gym pool. Garfield you well enough to race bru?
  5. For bike riding definitely the way to go. I've got a pair of Oakley Jawbones with photochromic lenses and they are world class.
  6. I use a RS800 CX and very happy. Always had cracker service from Polar
  7. Agree absolutely. Me and my riding mates are very much the beer and braai and talk about the ride after race types. My Fortuner exhaust does almost drag on the ground with 5 or 6 bikes loaded on. Current wife and kids all ride and come with to races and we love it. None of us ever going to win anything. But when the thing is timed , we all compare times and whether we like it or not, feels cracker to beat your mate who is is faster than you. But that's as far as it goes. Still swallow beer afterwards. As for pushing others out the way to get threre, well there will always be chops around.
  8. Bunch of ous lined up on the start line, no difference if A batch or Z batch, when that gun goes, something goes click in your brain and you travel. Aim is to get to the other end, quick as you can. First question everyone asks at the end is " what was your / my time" . It's just how we built. As long as where you come and what your tine was doesn't define you, nothing wrong with wanting to beat your mate. Closest feeling any of us will get to winning is beating our mate who normally beats you. And when it happens it feels like you won Olympic gold. All good.
  9. Lucky you had a glove on. I froze one to my hand once. Not pretty.
  10. Trek fuel EX8. Schweet.
  11. I like it. Although bit bit biased as have always ridden and loved pull bikes.
  12. Dude. What's an out of focus eye?
  13. Stop eating your wife's chow bru. You need " The Green Juice"!
  14. Alll about choices. Your choice is the juice . All good ( unless you make me drink the stuff in the photo). All depends what you trying to achieve. I'm early 40s and ride and swim for fun, I'm not overweight but def not a racing snake. No chance I can keep up with the lighties in a bike race , so I ride for fun and race my mates of the same age. Best thing after a ride on the weekend is a cold beer and a braai, to me that's the balance I'm after. If juicing makes you feel like you want to, go for it.
  15. We will panel them. As we should. Playing at home, we should beat them 10 times out of 10. If we play properly.
  16. Haven't been watching, hard at work, but sounds like the cracking it around. Alviro is world class. Should never have lost his place first time round. Rudolph at 6 could be good. This makes our effort in Durban look even more lame.
  17. Good luck with that!
  18. Boys, I'm very chuffed to see the term "current wife" being adopted as Hub lingua fraqua. Go ahead and use it "prn".
  19. What work you doing till 3 am?
  20. Supply. Demand. You say you can't buy the frame on its own through regular channels so have to buy a used one. Decide how much you willing to pay to have a complete set of sunnies. If seller accepts that, happy days. If not then no deal. Btw, what lenses are those you can buy for 800 bucks?
  21. Nice run out . That will help
  22. Alviro Peterson. Look to see him and Duminy in the reckoning for Newlands test. Boucher/Smith dropping Sanga on 3 looking a bit costly now. Can't believe they have played so much today. Pouring with rain outside my office now.
  23. Raining properly here today so not sure how much play we will see. That might just save us. I was at the ground on day 1, seemed like an easy wicket to bat on. Just how we managed to toss it like that I'm not sure. Hope Gary can sort these ous out before we go to England.
  24. Eish, heard plenty stories of guys seeing snakes out on the trails around KZN just recently. One dude I ride with has always said we should take an anti venom kit with us. If a mamba gives you one out there, ESP with your heart rate going full taps while riding, that venom going to go fast and even a cellphone ain't going to help.
  25. Nice bike that white La Pierre
