  1. I dunno, eh. Been reading up on it and apparently the back-story has been building up to SW over several titles for a number of years. So if anything I need to start from the very beginning, but that's more than 80 years of history... I almost need one of those MARVEL coffee table books as a sort of high-level summary of the history of the Multiverse and each character's involvement. THEN start SW. Whew.
  2. BAHAHAHAHA! Embrace it, stretchie http://scamp030.grads.digitalodu.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Resistance-is-futile-Picard-Borg.jpg
  3. YES. I need to get back into comics. Badly. Bedtime reading - but there's SO MUCH!!!
  4. IT DOES!!! Flash, though, is a close 2nd. AOS is a bit (okay, a LOT) cheesy. Flash is a bit better, and has a solid storyline. But re Daredevil - if that's how Netflix is going to do their series from now on, I'm hooked. Can't wait for the new season...
  5. well, if you stayed beyond the end of the movie you'd have seen the truth of that statement. They're all one big endless story, and you also have to tie it into the Agents of SHIELD series to get the full effect of it. Latest AOS episode started on the success of the Avengers at that town that was lifted so damn high. They dovetail so nicely...
  6. When Vision picked up Mjilnir. That was a collective OMFS.
  7. there's someone overseas who has machined a token fr the DP. I haven't seen any additional details (yet) but it is an option... Don't know how it affects the DP functionality yet, as I haven't read enough on it. But it is an option to consider.
  8. What about checking to see if you can buy the normal assembly and switch it out for the do?
  9. way more than 50, ran out of chairs! But ja, the time now should be spent ensuring that tokai reopens as the mtb,trail,hiking,horsey,nature urban jewel it should be. I'm not sure how we do that, but user groups need to work together. That's what we are doing, shebeen. We're almost done with the project charter, and are setting a time to hand it over to parks. Once that's done we'll be continuing to ask for earlier access so that we can get back in and revitalise and bud new trail. Vince is mapping out new dh trail at the moment and working on a few more things on the peninsula together with Reto and a couple more people, and Jason is working on the green belts. There will be a newsletter coming out this week, detailing where we are, where we were and where we want to be. But for now, all it is is exactly the same as it was a month ago. Cape pine are logging extensively, there's only one access road to the park which means that they can't delineate one side of the mountain for mtb use - it'd just be too dangerous. In addition we haven't exactly been making the best name for ourselves with riding where we're not supposed to be riding, so the blanket closure was expected - we just weren't expecting it to be that long. We are aiming to get in there sooner, and if we can start work on the trails mid winter to end winter and have uninterrupted building then we should have something mega by the time the park reopens in (now) 16 months time. Anyway. We will let you know of any developments. For now, they are slow. But we are working on things even though it can't be seen. Rob, on the other hand, is in a sector of the park that was un touched by the fire. Plus we have all been campaigning for YEARS to get the Cecilia section open end for cyclists. It wasn't just a snap decision by parks. The time was just right, and they opened it. Yes, a club structure would be great, but then again we need to get certain things in place for that and then it'd be another fee and another number board and another set of rules. But maybe that's the best way to go to get Joe Bloggs invved in the trail building and repair without actually lifting a finger. That option is still there, though. But again - I'd rather suggest waiting to see what happens with the project charter, and whether we'll be allowed in sooner than the 18 month timeline before requesting sponsorships. Anyway. More to come later this week
  10. Apparently the only reason that the MET has the better certification is that the Bell can't get it due to the fact that it is collapsible ie the chin and head portions are 2 separate pieces. Met is a one-piece lid so it qualifies.
  11. ANC. One ring to ruin them all.
  12. Awesome. Best keep the actual location under wraps until then. I hope your strava segment was set to private!
  13. yep. I was doing that arithmetic in my head on the way home yesterday. Personally, I wonder at the level of the subsidisation, and if it IS actually R 1.5Bn. It is the ST after all.
  14. It wouldn't survive one morning with the kick it'd get.
  15. Yeah. That's what the rest of them did yesterday while I had to get home. That's the way I'd do it again
  16. That's what I read as well. They do NOT want an "activist" approach and it's something thAt they put together for the ZAPO members. TnT just put a different spin on it.
  17. But then maybe I was just a bit too tired to appreciate it to it's best... Will definitely go back to re test and confirm my thoughts. A few times. Imo conters is much better.
  18. Meerendal is... meh. Its climbs and berms. Then more climbs. Then more berms. Rinse, repeat. Brilliant for hill training and cornering. There's a sum total of one rock drop, and about 2 jumps. You can get some serious speed though.
  19. Never heard of comic-con? http://www.blastr.com/sites/blastr/files/styles/media_gallery_image/public/images/ComicConPast26.jpg?itok=UtteaNUE
