  1. Why/how? Are you NOT going to join Discovery because they do not have some kind of agreement with Garmin? Agteros do you know much about IT as this is very simple to do and Discovery are just being difficult. Why should I have to buy a Polar to claim the points. To me it is a principle thing and disciminating against me the client. I am loyal Discovery member and the fact is thay do not care. Do you work for Discovery? miggies212010-02-16 10:08:58
  2. Discovery does not receive the files The polarpersonaltrainer.com website as well as the Polar Upload technology belongs to Polar. Discovery merely gets sent information regarding your POLAR training sessions which they then convert into Vitality point (150+50) per workout. Polar obviously are not going to cater for Garmin devices to upload data to their website (www.polarpersonaltraininer), just a Garmin will not cater for Polar data to be loaded onto http://connect.garmin.com Anycase each will protect their intellectual property to the n-th degree, so will not easily allow their workout files to be sent to a competitor... You are correct about the Dicovery and the files, but you are missing the point. Discovery will not accept files from the Garmin site. I have discussed this with Discovery and the bottom line that do not give a stuff.
  3. is there a policy that one can pay for an amount of cover, but not bike specific. It is a pain swopping MTB and ROAD bike on the policy each time.
  4. The race is well organised. I rode in the G bunch and some of the guys were putting all our lives at risk. A bike marshal would have sorted this out quickly. The back road to Phillie and N7 was not great and to narrow for big bunches. The hills at the end were hard work and Odendaal should be cut out if the same route is kept. I do think this route was chosen for the league guys in mind and not us fun riders.
  5. E 500 also calculates calories correctly and not like the E 705

  9. hurry please ... was off to buy one today from the local shop
  10. we had no traffic jam at all ... just went past the fruit sellers four way stop and and took the turn we did on the bikes ... 3km longer, but a 60 min shorter ...
  11. this was a great race and I much prefered the bump after 30km and not within the 1st 10km like Stellenbosch.
  12. not lekker. we were on that road yesterday. The aArgus says it happended near the Silo's .. is that true? Lets all pray for the family at this hard time

  14. good luck to all doing the DC ... this is my first one and I am really looking forward to it
  15. I went to collect some shoes at the main sorting office in Goodwood and while waiting I was watching the customs guys open parcels and look at what was on the "menu" .... twice I pointed out to the one chap that goods had been left out of the opended parcel when it was being resealed...
  16. Hats off to this parent as he has now created a memory that will live on forever with his son ...
  17. this is photoshopped .... has been around for a while
  18. I know the LBS I use would have loaned me a saddle and maybe that is because I drop at at least R2k per month at his shop..... good luck
  19. i went for the Edge 705 as I was feedup with Polar heart strap not functioning. Have not had a days problem with the 705.
