    What rims and tyres are those?

    Sometimes it's worth getting up early Dabbling in a bit of HDR

    She is fed 200g (1 cup) twice a day as per Vets instructions. (Same as previous food) I must say it seems like she is not going looking for more food as much as she was on the other stuff.

    Quick question to those with Labs and larger breed dogs What do you guys feed your fur-kids to keep them healthy (weight down, etc.) We've currently got Ming (Lab/Bull-Mastiff) on a diet. She's down 4kgs from 66 kgs four weeks ago. The Vet reckons she should be about 45kg. She is overweight, but I believe this is a bit optimistic. Nonetheless we're going to try.Vet reckons it'll take 2 years to get her weight down. On the contrary, her brother Congo (Staffie) gets fed exactly the same as her but is just skin, bone and muscle. The Vet has given us special Hills diet food, but the problem is that it is R700 a 12kg bag. I have no problem if there is no other option. We want the best for her and Congo.

    Did any Zwaanswyk and /or Tokai residents go to the meeting? From the Tokai Trailbuilders FB page I attended the SANParks meeting last night as a resident of Zwaanswyk. No free booze, but there was a presentation on the current situation in the former Tokai plantation. The focus is currently twofold, it seems. Firstly to get all the pine and gums out as soon as possible - they reckon it will take 6 months - and secondly to stabilize and protect the slopes from what is likely to be some nasty erosion. The intense heat from the burning aliens has caused damage to the depth of about a meter. I asked a specific question about what the plans were for mountainbiking and the answer was positive. They see it currently as having a blank canvas and the opportunity to put in a "world class mountainbiking facility" and want to engage the MTB forum and include good trail building ideas. Meetings are scheduled and some of you may be involved with this. He mentioned that they weren't keen to invest in infrastructure in the previous pine plantations as this would inevitably be lost when logging occurred. Time frames given where that Silvermine would likely open in October and Tokai in 18 months or so. I think the message is that we need to engage with them, put forward our ideas and proposals to get what we want.

    I don't get it They invited Tokai residents, I suspect that many/most of TnTs clients are from the area. Now they can't come?
  11. Flowta
    LOL!!!
  12. Flowta
    Maybe they'll bring some of this http://d77r3ym80c2os.cloudfront.net/HTCforums280_TNT.png
  13. Flowta
    I imagine a lot of TnT guys live in Tokai, so may be going anyway
  14. Flowta
    That is all anyone wants. Maybe some Tokai residents will go and then report back
  15. Flowta
    FYI
  16. Flowta
    Sorry, was an afterthought. Didn't think you'd reply that quickly
  17. Flowta
    Sorry, edited my reply. I'm not on the committee. Previously my suggestions have been met with disdain by some of the committee members.
  18. Flowta
    Follow Rob Vogel's lead? Don't just accept what they say. Challenge them on thing. Criticise. This has been said before, even within the committee
  19. Flowta
    Same Park, same obstacles?
  20. Flowta
    Rob is also getting a fair bit of traction with his proposal for the Green Belts
  21. Flowta
    On a positive note, it seems that some previously restricted areas within TMNP will be open to MTB on trial basis in the near future, thanks to Rob Vogel of Table Mountain Bikers
  22. Flowta
    I get that Deon,but if as you say the after a few months the timber may become unusable, would it not make sense to tackle the affected trees first? If there are a few unaffected in a compartment they are harvesting, then cool. But if majority of a compartment are not burnt, leave that for later. Maybe it requires too much thinking, or maybe I'm asking "STUPID" questions (in which case I'm sorry). I'll have to have a closer look to see which "significant portion of levels 4 and 5 have been cleared".
  23. Flowta
    I'm asking whether it is burnt trees that they are taking out? There are some sections that haven't been burnt and are still green
  24. Flowta
    Like I said, I could be wrong. Have you seen them yourself? Also are they from the burnt areas or still healthy timber? It would be interesting to get an idea of percentage (i.e which areas have been cleared)
  25. Flowta
    Any idea how the progress of the Harvesting is going? I understand that some of the lower forest has had some harvesting. Maybe I'm wrong, but it doesn't look like they've done anything in the upper forest.
