  1. Vettie, love the jersey ! And nice coat!
  2. You need ridges on that ramp DJR. Also, as an engineer you know, it will soon start getting a bit to steep, so you might need to make it longer and a bit wider. Sides will also help as the age kicks in. You have a supplement with the food ?
  3. Saturday, is that the day you do the work you needed to do on Monday ? After school sports? Oh and the shopping and the cleaning house and mow the lawn and fix the light globe and ...and ..and....oh and it is your birthday so you get to fix the autoclave at work .and and .... and I am hijacking this thread POST MORE PICHTA'S ... FAST .
  4. I dont think that 20metres from the front door of the house (aka kitchen) to the front dooor of the office (aka study), will count as a ride. And besides, there is so much stock "aka stuff not being sold and hence why working so hard" is in the way a bike will not fit.
  5. This has to be the worst thread of the year It is more motivating than Impey winning stage 9!! And when one has been office bound for most of the year, this thread just makes you want to ride. And then cry because there will not be much let up for the next 6 months.
  6. What is also missing is more people who have done this giving talks. (And if they do, they should be better advertised). It is one thing reading about it on TheBikeHUb, or a blog or a publication, as opposed to seeing photos and hearing someone speak about it. You get to ask questions, you get to interact with someone who has done it. And yes it was a talk all that long ago that started the journey into long distance riding. Munga, RASA, RAAM, PbP all fit up there because of one talk.
  7. Has he stopped racing ? Miss his reports. Actually miss race reports in general. It seems all these long distance folk are the only ones to write reports now. EDIT: Nice photo by the way NSBB
  8. Will try make contact with 2bliss, or else with have to try via the doc.
  9. Needed a good dose of humour. The right to critique an add without really been interested in purchasing the item. All you guys are like ...... no no no, when I buy, mint is perfect and perfect is like new and new means it has never ever been ridden. But best of all your understanding of these terms gives you license to drive the price into the ground - because barely used cannot possibly mean fair and decent pricing for the seller. BUT, by golly when you guys sell, no no no. Then hardly ridden means like new and new means top notch pricing, and recently serviced adds double the value and no negotiation at all. It is going to be fun watching all you percfectionist buyers complain when you try be sellers and everyone else gives you a taste of their 4p's. Perfectionist Purchasing Pricing Policy.

  11. Hey Guys I still have a fair amount of money in my lonely savings account. Anyway we can get hold of 2bliss and co to find out what the parents might need/want through winter and more importantly how we can get it to them?
  12. Tony as my wife and I face our own challenges in trying to get new ventures off the ground, I just want to say thank you for the inspiration to not give up. Just when it feels like we want to throw in the towel you pop something on this thread and it reminds us to just keep on keeping on. Thanks for all the posts on this thread, they really are inspirational.
  13. The ind has just arrived in Somerset West. Boy I hope those riders have their hats well tied on. This weather is no joke!
