  1. Not in this platteland hey, even the afrikaners have to speak english, I think it's one of the few areas where the english farmers far outnumber the afrikaans.
  2. They tried that at 2Oceans years ago, with boards down the street with projected finishing times, it seemed to work well then, but now people have just become too selfish, or maybe people have just lost their intellect I'd love to do a few more races but the crowds get to me, and the bottle-necks at even mildly tech sections. and yes it's easy to say train harder, then you'll not be held up, but that's not the point, the point is decency. If some one is faster than you uphill, make an effort to move over for them, I do, and the same on downhills. And Sheriff, I'm no technical genius, but I'm sure better than the run of the mill rider nowadays.
  3. Looks like he took the Whittlesea road by mistake, good that he corrected that, otherwise he'd have had to go via Adelaide.
  4. I don't know, I thought you had organized accom, Sorry if I'm wrong
  5. Can't you phone the accom in uMthata, to find out if he made it back.
  6. I noticed, nothing from last night. Hope there's no problem.
  7. Cool, Big Bike for the Twizza then :clap:
  8. Does the route still go down the steep game path off the hill. I love that bit. I'll do the 40 just for that section.

  12. I use it in bullet proof coffee, but in my coffee before riding I prefer the taste and texture(?) of flaxseed oil
  13. Dunno Dave, tweeted Tim. Waiting for a reply.
  14. All around Kei Mouth and Morgans Bay, and Double Mouth, but I took no pics. Rode along the edge of the kranzes, and saw a group of Gannets diving with some action in the water too. Probably tuna, or Bonnies, after the first sardines of the season. Oh and I found this family, which have been eaten
  15. What's the story with flaxseed oil. I see that the real meal revolution says to never eat it. I love it in my coffee.
