  1. The 63km starts at 8am
  2. No unfortunately not. That would have been much more comfortable. I rode my bike the last 8km through the Grabouw plantations single track, which would normally have been bliss but with a broken clavicle it was hell. Medics at the end said just seems like your ac joint is dislocated..... Rather trust the x-rays
  3. So before I started mtbing I had never brocken a bone Well between 2008 and now the list is 2008 broken ribs 2009 left broken clavicle. Plate put in and six months later taken out due to plate starting to lift as one screw snapped 2010 broken ribs 2011 chipped elbow 2012 ribs again 2013 as in now broke the right clavicle, plate and eight crews solved the issue Moral of the story is that MtbĂ­ng is not for sissy's or I need new glasses.
  4. We all have to earn a living some how and cycling is the hobby. The day job funds the hobby Cheers The Pool Guy
  5. A salt water pool feels more silky as you say due to the fact that the salt in the water is more gentle on your skin eyes and hair. Yo can achieve the same effect with a normal chlorine (HTH) pool by simply adding 200kg of salt per 50000L of pool water and still use the chlorine to sanitize.
  6. Different salt chlorinators have varying Ideal salt levels and for this reason you may have the perception that that the one pool is more salty than the next. Salt by itself does not sanitize the water. We had a client who had a floating pool. This means that the salt level was similar to that of the dead sea and they still needed a specialized chlorinator to sanitize the pools
  7. The Salt water chlorinator builds a up a chlorine residual in the water that should be about 2-3ppm. So there should always be chlorine in the water otherwise the pool will not be sanitized properly.
  8. Ok Guys and Gals A salt water pool is also a chlorine pool. The salt water chlorinator is just a onsite chlorine factory. The unit turns salt into chlorine gas. Nuff said Cheers The Pool Guy www.pooldoctor.co.za
  9. Had a great ride on my new 29er hard tail. The hard tail made the climbs much easier but made me suffer a bit more on the downhills. The vibe of the ride is always great and this is the third time I have done it. Will be back next year as I am a sucker for punishment.
  10. Just laughed three times in a row.
