The Garmin Fenix 7 is due to be released soon (possible early 2022) meaning that you should be able to find a Garmin Fenix 6 at a reasonable price. ( I have noticed that they have started dropping in price recently)

Probably making sure that everyone was wearing a mask and observing covid19 social distancing protocol. You know, the important stuff in a race.

Wow, that's poor from the organisers. The lead car stuff-up is one thing, but then to not communicate with Emma? Proper ***. "I don’t know why the lead car and motorbike didn’t say anything or in the race why the race commissaire was back with the group, all all I know is I did my post race interviews, I went to drug testing, got called to the podium and then never got called up on it, no-one told me I was disqualified, that’s how I found out."

Yup, I've had it a couple of times on my Fenix 3. Had to power off and on again for GPS tracking to start working again.

As long as you don't buy anything for your cousin as a surprise you're good to go ????

In your defense the site does look pretty legit from first glance. Also, doesn't seem that it has been widely reported as a scam site (yet). I guess the only clue is the fairly recent domain registration date (although obviously new, legit sites get created every day) https://www.scam-detector.com/validator/hokashoessouthafrica-co-za-review/

Sjo, It's going to be a hot one... Hopefully races will start opening up again in the new year (Just a lot better to go run a race than going out for a 25km training slog on your own)

Haven't seen this posted anywhere, so apologies if it has. Big congrats to Jeanni Seymour with silver at the Ironman 70.3 World Championships! Can't find a race report yet, but will post if I find it. https://fb.watch/85Xmm-FvPH/ Edit: Race report: https://www.tri247.com/triathlon-news/elite/ironman-70-3-world-championship-2021-results-women

Anybody else having issues with their gym tracker? My gym visit count dropped from 60 to 32 all of a sudden (with January all of a sudden showing zero visits where it previously had around 12). Only 1 of 13 August swipes have been recorded. (My workouts are all in excess of 30 min although there isn't any facility to swipe on exiting the gym so the 30 min workout duration shouldn't even come in to play)

Canyon smanyon, at least we'll always have our Makro Cannondales

My my.... did this forum just become a whole lot of boring. To recap:

You guys are stressing waaaaay too much about these changes; just make your posts bike topical e.g. I added some new gatorskins to my bike yesterday; man, they are the BEST. I had to do it because Donald Trump thinks he can run again for president in 4 years time. What a [d]00s; I mean did he not screw up the country enough in his last... etc etc etc etc. *Disclaimer - This post does not necessarily reflect the writer's own views, it is purely to illustrate a point by example. (Everybody knows Gatorskins are not the best)

Frankly, even if I had the money I would be too embarrassed to ride it. When riding a R400k bike I think you should at least have a modicum of talent and not get dropped by a guy on a dikwiel with a basket.

You'll be hard-pressed to find a vegan Bulls fan though....

Normally I would laugh this comment off as someone being funny, but in this instance you might actually have a celeste point...

Bwahahahahahaha.... two weeks. I like your optimism. In case you missed it, this is the CFR at the moment

I was quite surprised as well, my license status was stuck in "Preparing for Consideration" for more than a year. Once it moved past that, both licenses were approved in a week.

What? You're still waiting for your Glock? I have received mine as well had two other firearms re-licensed which were handed in during amnesty. Think I must starting playing lotto

No... I get in my car, check that everything I asked for was done, take the highway home. If all is good, happy days, if not, I take it back. Quite simple really.

Uhm.... yes

Just a heads-up; be prepared for the Fu**'s to come back in a few weeks' time to come and see whether there is a nice insurance replacement to collect

Having gone through the same thing where bikes were taken from garage (Electrical garage door that was forced open - Not that difficult when you have 3 men lifting the door and basically wrecking the entire mechanism) I implemented the following - Deadbolt in the door that gets locked every night (Basically I added a steel bolt in the rail the garage door's wheels run on) - Thick Chain and lock to secure bikes to garage wall - Skunk pepperspray that gets triggered by motion in the garage (also activated at night) (I have activated this by accident once, in the confined space of a garage it is more than a little potent!) There has been a few more theft attempts since then but without on success on the criminals' part
