  1. https://www.cyclingnews.com/news/alaphilippe-better-to-be-stripped-of-second-place-than-first/ He has apologised to Hirschi, which does seem sincere. I think it was a bit of a brain fade from him as I don't think he's done something like that before. But his move did deserve the relegation. Most importantly the other riders were ok and he will learn from this going forward, both the swerve and the premature celebration.
  2. Thanks. Targeting another 5 to 8kg loss before mid October in case this goes ahead, and the 947 if it happens
  3. I also want to test out my legs this time round. 28kg lighter than the last time I rode Tom Jenkins Should be easier

    RIFLE

    Grouping with my .308Win Sako L579. Shot off shooting sticks, aiming at the "S". 2 on the left are my hunting loads (200gr Nosler Partition), right 2 are my practice loads (190gr Nosler Custom Competition).

    RIFLE

    Nice going. Did my first hunt last weekend, nice Impala ram. Couple of test shots before but the rifle is printing within a bottle cap of zero at 100m off home made sticks so still as accurate as ever.
  7. Cradle Moon Red Route
  8. Video I filmed and edited from a digital camera of a trail I built on my property during lockdown. +-750m long trail. Still adding new sections. Will update video when new sections are done - want to build a tech loop with rock gardens, drop offs and small jumps.
  9. Thanks. It was activated before bank went live (activated last year). But forgot that since virgin active isn't charging, there is no cash back.
  10. Question, have Vitality on top of a life policy, and have had the gym booster activated more than a year ago. Does gym booster still pay back the 25% without a discovery bank account? My profile says it is activated, but booster still at 0%, and have met my 36 visits in early march, and 9 of my last 10 weekly point requirements.
  11. Yup, and the next revolution might involve a third Chainring, so you can have a revolutionary 620% range (42x11, 22x36). Not sure why the industry hasn't thought of it yet

  13. Well the Scott Spark 900 Pro SL is R 200k at cyclelab. Think there is also a road bike for that sort of money. But it is a mark of the sport that prices are increasing above inflation (Spark 910 which was under R 50k 5 or 6 years ago is now north of R 80k for similar level of components)

    RIFLE

    Beretta make seriously good shotguns. That 1301 comp looks cool. And the Silver Pigeon is a very nice shotgun. Won't go wrong with it.
  15. Where was the crash you heard? Was it the one coming up to the finish?
  16. Seems to have been resolved. Got my points for last week, and got my 100 instant miles. But no plays. Probably will have the extra play next week.
  17. Would be from meeting Health, drive and money points requirements. If all 3 are met, you get a bonus play
  18. Still showing on the site that there is a problem with gym visits and points not pulling through. Not sure how much longer it will go on, but I have now got a missed goal for last week, where I should be 100 points over.
  19. My Garmin workouts and steps have pulled through. But not my Virgin Active 100 points, since last Wednesday (5 different ones). Monday pulled through fine Edit: see that discovery is aware of the issue going back to the 14th, and are trying to fix it

    RIFLE

    Very nice looking rifle that. Enjoy
  21. Ja my ride from yesterday morning is still not showing on Discovery. Should be 300 points (+1hr at 70%). Going to see after a ride today if it syncs
  22. New Specialized MTB Comp Shoes
