Another awesome ride in Jonkershoek this morning. Since the Topfuel is in the shop for a service, the Stumpy did duty. I just love the Stumpy on days like this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

We also lost away against India. The pitches were dust bowls though. We’ll have to get another spin option or 2 if we are to be competitive with the new ICC test ‘series’. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Good PR this. It is probably more about awareness than the actual reduction in water footprint. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

The water demands on this race is probably about 300Kl. This = the monthly allowance of 30 households. In real terms it is negligible. Edit: thanks for the link Hilton, numbers updated. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Riveting cricket! I enjoyed the intensity from both teams throughout the match. Credit to the Newlands curator. This is such a good advertisement for Test cricket Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

This reminds me of one of my neighbours doing her nut early last year when she saw sprinklers on my lawn with water coming out of them. She almost put her BMW through my gate and jumped out screaming obscenities at my gardener. Fortunately I was home to deal with he situation. I calmly asked her if she can read, as I have 3 signs up indicating that non-potable water is used in my garden, then I asked het if she can smell as gray water has a bit of an odor. She then mumbled something and left. People see green lawn and assume the worst / simply make their own conclusions, much like when they see someone on a high end bike that does not quite fit the profile of a typical cyclist.

Enjoyed your rendition of GRTP. We booked the cottage (just below the loop) between Christmas and New Year with friends (earlier last year we booked over Easter as well). With the addition of a back packers at the trail center it provides even more accommodation options for GRTP riders and Cross Cape riders as well. This is fast becoming the premier mtb destination in SA. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Gutted for Pandya. He showed some spunk. Now lets end this quickly and put some runs on the board. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Well played SA! I think we are well on top at this stage courtesy of some valuable runs by the tail. Even with Sunday looking like a rain affected day (we need rain!) the match is progressing well enough to get a result by Monday evening. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Jip. Its great to have more trailside shops these days. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

A quick Helderberg ride Followed by a mean flat white Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

India has been traveling much better recently and have a very professional support team looking after their players. They have no obvious weaknesses, they can bowl sides out twice and have batsmen that score big and score quickly. I think we’ll do well if we can win this series. I’m looking forward to two sides who can push each other to the limit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Forgot to add, do a list of assets and liabilities as well for each. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Draw up a list of income vs expenses each and work out what both can afford and where sacrifices are to be made. You lose the synergy of sharing accommodation, groceries property utilities, etc. so neither you or your lady will be able to maintain the lifestyle you are accustomed to.

I haven’t done any trailseeker races in the last 12 months and have not done Atta since 2010 and got a C seeding. I did quite well in PE Plett (the short one) as well as Origin (again the short one). I’m guessing that if you wish to boost your seeding you need to hit a couple of shorter races hard. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro

Decided to take the Marathon bike around Tokai this morning. First ride back since 2014. Took it easy. The work done is great, but at R80 for a day permit I’ll be rather selective for return trips. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

The gap between the players with national contracts and the franchise players is huge. Fielding in particular was way below standard. No one in the wings at present knocking on the door and this is a concern. I would have liked to see 1 foreign based player per franchise. It could have evened the playing field somewhat with the Titans and Cobras in particular being loaded with Proteas. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Furthermore, have TV coverage for all the games. Why do we have 3 games on a Wednesday, 3 on a Friday and then a double header on a Sunday? Do what the IPL and other leagues do and have 6 games from Tuesday to Sunday and ensure that each game get coverage. I agree on the issue around weather. Earlier games for Durbs, Centurion and Wanderers and weather days if needed. On Saturday the Dolphins looked like a side who played very little cricket this season. Bouch seems to be getting a lot of things right at Centurion. The mass exodus from the Lions in particular to the Titans points to things not being well South of the Jukskei. I am also wondering what was behind Parnell being dropped from the Cobras side earlier in the season, and then he mysteriously makes an appearance in the Warriors side towards the back end. Was he on loan, was there issues around his contract or perhaps a personality clash? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Great day out! Thanks to the Wildekrans team for an awesome ride today. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Oak Valley was showing off again today Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Heal up soon Tomik. I saw quite a few people that ran out of talent over the 2 days. We often forget that mountain biking is an extreme sport and that things can go very wrong very quickly. People often ask why events are expensive, until they need medical attention in a remote area. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Thats like saying Japan beat us just the other day, so France will be heartened by their performance. I did not watch the Japan vs France game so cannot comment on whether the Japs played out of their skins or the French didn’t pitch for the game. I agree that Wales will be a tough proposition, but if we prepare well and play for each other we can definitely take them on. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
