  1. Hope you heat the water above 50c every now and again , you created perfect enviroment(35-38C) for germs to grow in. Most germs only gets killed >45c so recomended min for geyser is 50C. Just put proper blanket on it and insulate the pipes. Edit: Some more info from eishkom. http://www.eskom.co.za/sites/idm/Documents/Legionaires_Fact_sheet_hot_water_bacteria_simple_facts.pdf
  2. Just buy some water from local spar , R20?/5l and imported from vereeniging or somewhere up country already. Then we get your water and your money
  3. Seeding expected first week of Feb rest just normal watered (or not) down nonsense
  4. Ok, they responded, all mtb routes canned, such a pity ..
  5. Has the MTB part been canned, nothing on website about it?
  6. Somewhere lost in the thread is calculations of impact .. about 0.03% increase in water usage if extra ?45000(family etc) come down for 2 days. Edit: From Press Release: It is estimated that visitors coming to Cape Town for the event will use between 1.5-million to 1.750-million litres of water over the duration of their stay. The Cape Town Cycle Tour Trust – who represent our two key beneficiaries – has therefore committed to taking some of the money that would have gone to charitable distribution to purchase an amount of 2-million litres of spring water sourced from only licenced and fully tested suppliers, and from an area not experiencing drought. This water will be put back into the local water grid. We are working closely with the City of Cape Town around the mechanics of how this water will be introduced back into the municipal reticulation system.
  7. Any wild predictions when seeding might be released ?
  8. Yup, expected if we save 4%, no day zero for next few years. They started planning for drought in 2015-16 already and 26 boreholes was sunk over the years. Think population of stellenbsoch going to expand rapidly if CPT hits D0
  9. And thats only 1.2% for about 2 days. (out of 77 left till day 0) so, 2/77 => 2.5% of days left till day zero the water usage will increase by 1.2% .. about 0.03% impact i think (my wiskunde is geroes)
  10. Most large buildings aircons all work with evoparitive water as its lot cheaper than compressors/eskom. Where my better half work , if I recalll correctley,use about 10kl water per day to keep server Room (IT) cold. They drilled boreholes now, not to use muni water, but of course, this use ground water which can very well run dry. I assume there be many buildings like this, I know of few here in Stellies as well (gym etc) but that ok, one just sweat bit more without aircon. Wondering if Gyms gonna shut down, people sweat to much so use more water...
  11. Wonder whos clever idea was it to put everyones who entered id numbers for everyone to See on the website
  12. Nothing wrong, just bit moeg of the MTB after the race2where...
  13. After today, none.. :-)
  14. Why on same weekend as 360one?
  15. if I recall correctly, someone posted a xls spreadsheet/google_doc with start time vs index(seeding group) , but cannot find it now. anyone maybe have link somewhere?
  16. Just reply and ask to clarify, sure that "not" is typo
  17. Apologies if already posted ..
  18. Sportiff site: This series will count towards your seeding for the Cape Town Cycle Tour. So who knows
  19. Just to be fair ,they do call it course record , not DC record. Which means for the current course (2016/2017) , its a record , so just bit better than last year.
  20. if you were team 208, appreciate that i was allowed to sit in between the two stops, managed to catch my team again!!
  21. Strava Route https://www.strava.com/routes/11247102 Gpx Coronation Double Century DC - 202 km.gpx
