  1. Melancholy. The infinite sadness is an after-effect...
  2. Short answer - No. They're weekly goals. Even though you have an ITB strain you can still do other stuff at the gym. If there's a broken bone or you undergo surgery, THEN you can attempt to get a reprieve for a couple weeks by emailing Vitality together with proof of the procedure you underwent, and get it suspended for a while. Otherwise - suck it up, cupcake. Slightly shorter answer - there should be for things that legitimately prevent you from doing any exercise at all. But it's at their own discretion.
  3. I'll agree with this. In 2009 I was able to stay on my bike and ride through the venturi that is the civic centre. Granted, I was the only person in my group able to do that, but the point is I was able to. From what I saw, even the racing tandems weren't able to stay upright. And they've got a LOT more weight and momentum than I would have had. I don't know if I would have been able to keep going. And I've ridden home in the middle of the S'wester on Main Road. When I had to change into granny, and even then could only just move forwards. Felt like I was riding through treacle. This, was worse. 2009 was bad, but this was badder. In '09 it was also rustig through the M3. And then you hit the wind going over Boyes. And again in Simonstown. And Smits was a good climb (my best time up there IIRC) but chappies was a clusterfeck. The correct and responsible decision was made today.
  4. Awesome. Thinking more and more about doing something like that. Except on MTB.
  5. There was a break in the fuel line of his old Corsa. It must have ruptured, 'cos as he started the car one morning it got engulfed in flames. He'd quipped just the day or 2 before that he was lucky it wasn't a Kuga, cos he saw smoke.
  6. Been a long day. Would either need to be 2500kg or have a 75:1 leverage ratio.
  7. Oh wow. Lol. Yeah. Then that's definitely not for me
  8. at a leverage ratio of just under 3:1 it's what I need for my lard ass
  9. Hmm. Shock size is 200x57. Probably a bit too long. Shot for the offer though
  10. Ah, Wolfie. So sad.... When I saw the news this morning I was gutted. Good to see your name again, man. But yeah.
  11. Nope Serious. GB1.99 on clearout. Only those weights.
  12. Willie, I'm sad that it's under these circumstances that you're back here, but I understand why. It seems almost fitting that you say goodbye here, as this was his 2nd home in many ways...
  13. because you're lost and looking for a reason?
  14. First, the Minion was the tyre that all riders sponsored by other brands would put on their bikes and then blank out the logo. Then it was the Magic Mary. Now, the playing field is a bit more level, but they (Minion & Magic) are still the Sharpie-Tyres.
