  1. Your bad. That cat's name is Joshua. Not bloo-cat. Nice wrench your Wendys got
  2. We,re in. All good
  3. Agree 100%. Even though the measurements aren't accurate, we still burn a heap more than the couch brigade. That likely to pay you back as you age.
  4. What always amazes me is the amount of calories we burn, relative to non exercising people. Well over a million calories used up by just those who have thrown up their stats here. Take 10 couchies, those calories are still inside those boys, and counting. Thats worth a few beers and peanut butter sarmies over a lifetime. Imagine your lazy mates trying to do 40K on a MTB, they going to bleed from the eyeballs, and we just cruise that on a Thursday morning without thinking. And we're avg Joes.
  5. Was a fuuny movie. Im sitting here trying to watch The Wall that I PVRd the other day , while my lighties are watching crap downsatirs. Now that thing, not so funny! I remember it being better.
  6. Hey bru That's pretty good, 90k of climbing over 80 rides, more than 1000m per ride. I reckon that's better than avg. You a racing snake?
  7. What is it about bike riders and cup of chinos? Like milk stout goes with canoeing, beer with hockey practice, bikies and cup of chinos?
  8. Hey shot Skiddy. Works well.
  9. Is there a cut and paste function for text with my Ipad? If so, how do you use it ?
  10. Yebo. I use mine all the time. All good. Haven't got the footpod so never know how far I run, but the bike features are great. Can also get attaching gps unit which I haven't got.
  11. just a blip on the radar. Kimberley a hard place to play. Rating Raubenheimer . Great game from him
  12. The " Evil Undead". Seems a bit dark... Hey Dad, pls can I have an Evil Undead for my birthday?
  13. Happy to be a nanny-stater in the medical profession this time round - ususally im saying do whatever you do bru - but the kind of injury probable from a helmetless tip and roll just not worth it.
  14. I have cable tied a 2nd case onto the back of my layback post. Works for me. Lost a bottle once down a rocky section but otherwise hundreds
  15. Oi. What's wrong with Fortuners. :huh Every man deserves to have a bakkie but still dig my Fortuner.
  16. Haibo. What happens when all the positive charge runs out and the negative ions start increasing your pH. All that alkalinity going to upset your harmony, and you going to crash your bike. . Maybe that's when you need a new one??? Or maybe a different colour.
  17. I pay for a family of 5 so I know. Bank on all in 1k per good race, incl entry fees , petrol, spares, juice, lunch and a beer. Not complaining, my family loves it and I love them loving it, but just means we don't do every race. Some I'll go to on my own and some we just bypass altogether. All about supply and demand and as customers of the events we choose which we want to do. No beef with the race that charges more, I look at what it offers then decide. All good.
  18. Proper musician that boy. " the bigger the cushion, the better the pushin......". Named my cat buttrash after one of his songs
  19. Trek fuel ex9. Go anywhere bike. Good deal at the mo if you can get. (26 full Suss)

    First time I ever saw snow was in Switzerland. First day of ski school, dude heard we were saffas, could surf and ride skateboards, so basically straight up the slopes and by the afternoon could operate. Takes a few more days to get it properly but then you are away, can ski down any slope and go anywhere ( just depends how fast). My wife absolutely loves it, would go every year if we could afford it......

    Not to that exact valley but over the mountain . Been to Austria a few times and to Italy and Switzerland. If you enjoyed the mtb there, skiing will blow your mind. Full day of skiing followed by a few hours at apreski pubs on the slopes as sun goes down. V v special. It Italy we skied at Sestrierre, same place as the TDF went through this year.

    Cracker pictures bru. Looks weird to see all the lifts and tracks and mountains with no snow. Do yourself a favor and go back there in winter , without yr bike and a set of skis or a snowboard under your arm. Rocks.
