  1. Maybe the suit is from his high school graduation? I doubt he picked up weight since he left school being a pro cyclist and all.....
  2. The Queen mishandled the sword. It should have been swung.....
  3. I'm too old to play dad once again. No dreams about daddy second time here But babies are life changing (for tje better)... and they do add a lot of perspective
  4. Tyd vir Carpet om 'n baba te kry sodat sy kan leer om na 'brandboudjies ' om te sien.... Lots of respect Carpet. Hope you are back on the bike soon!
  5. Medals for non podium positions detract from 'real' medals. Finishers medals, if needed, need at least to be cleary different from a podium medal.
  6. Decades ago you did not even receive a medal for a finish, merely a patch to be sewn onto your tracksuit
  7. Did you start an activity, or did you just start turning the pedals? You need to start an "official" activity for averages to be calculated...
  8. Did you pair the two? www.dcrainmaker.com/2012/02/cycleops-powerbeam-trainer-pro-in-depth.html "Like most ANT+ head units, the Joule works with the concept of ‘pairing’, which is like tethering. In this case, our first order of business is to pair the head unit with the trainer itself. While this is done via ANT+, it’s actually not open ANT+, so not every head unit can pair with the trainer (but, as I’ll discuss later, any head unit can get power information from the trainer)."
  9. Not a band. I had a look at this device at the Cycling Fair. Impact sensor mounts onto your helmet and uses your cell phone to send a message if impact(crash) detected. Definitely merit to it and the idea behind it!
  10. I've started compiling a map on Google Maps - still in the testing out phase For the map I need to add / obtain a lot more information. Exact/approximate locations of accidents - not just city level and then dates, etc For some of the accidents I remember / seen on thehubsa here is a prelim view. I am very open to suggestions on what to include / remove, etc. At the moment it groups the accidents per province and the icon colours shows whether the accident was fatal or not
  11. You've had a look at these guys: www.cycletouring.co.za ?
  12. Hopefully the quad bikers and moto x'ers can be kept off these!
  13. H do I see you at BRG tomorrow at 5am? Not faster than 6min/km? I have some nasty cycling route ideas...
  14. They didn't use mine... luckily as my index for it is 200.... pages look very Racetec-y as per entry for racetec events and results of those events. Question: Is this the seeding that will be used for Racetec events country wide?
  15. When is CGT du champs? I'll have to just about re-learn how to run edit: V<>C
  16. Agreed! I've had a lazy year and I beat that on a 1/4 of the distance... Distance 2,723.4 km Elev Gain 32,505 m 120-130,000m vertical ascent should be "avg" for a distance of 10,000 km. Aim for 150-200,000m climbing
  17. I just want to do as many road races (MTB is for fun, and doing races for fun is not fun for the wallet) and improve on my placing in the 2013 94.7 Cycle Challenge
  18. work on your core - it will help you to get out of the saddle and have power to kick when doing so! do some running Yes, it is more work Yes, it is tiring Yes, it uses different muscles and to answer your question: slow down the cadence when pedalling whilst standing Use your body weight to push down on the pedals pull on the opposite handle bar when pushing on the pedals Lean forward - over the handle bars so you can kick back at the pedals
  19. Anybody keen for a roadie ride tomorrow morning. Flexible on start time - am on leave
  20. See you there, then
  21. 6:30-40 ish or 5:30-40 ish? You start at 5:15?
  22. I am keen. Will join on Kelly, just before Ysterhout where you turn right to go towards Lifestyle.
  23. How many minutes to when your holiday leave start?
  24. ADSL on contract is sheer madness. Prices keep on coming down, and service levels from ISPs fluctuate from year to year (giving them some credit...) if you are a sane person do not go for a contract for voice or ADSL !!!!
