Sad indeed. Hope he is ok.

very sad indeed. condolences to the family

Great stuff, happy its a good ending!

Big dissapointment, I was really not a happy chappy We should have a ride for the safety of cyclists it seems pity couldnt make Sat's from Newtown. Anyone went there?

Can someone give a short summary of the reason for the thread? Did anything happen at Telkom that we should know about?

Can't say I've set foot inside one since the "cartel" issue!! since they started asking for id's it is a problem getting in yes Del!!

Ok, I've read the Hoorn article now... its horrific and it scares the crap out of me

does anyone know on which road this happened?

So LA's passport is full, no space for the stamp, so he can't enter the country officially. Pretty messed up start to his visit

Can't say I have experienced bad service(workshop) from them at the 4 Ways branch. Would be good to get their side of the story too........

ok its official now, they have landed.

Aparently he has landed or is about to check out www.twitter.com/alimclean would he not have flown in, in his own plane?

they were in Gabon by 14:30 today...... if that is any help

I'll do socks and insul tape all week!!

Just remember that the top players/riders/athletes etc gets to use the best or personalised equipment, thus the Nike spikes you and I can buy isnt nearly the same quality , weight etc as the one's that the world's best run in. So although it might seem as if the mass market appeal downgrades the brand name, the opposite is actually true. The GM bats that you can buy and the one's the top batsmen use is worlds appart. They dont necessarily sell those as it really is exclusive (read, not affordable), and the co probably only makes a few of them anyway. Saw an article today where Reebok is offering a $10000 reward for anyone that can return the hockey stick and gloves the Canadian, who shot the winning goal in Vancouver against the US at the winter games, used. He tossed it away after scoring to celebrate and never got it back.

Very sad news indeed. Condolences to the families.

they dont let themselves being kept up, so dont worry

hi pepsi the Xumbugs 5:15 group will no longer ride there till spring time later in the year from tues a group will be back at Steers Meyersdal @ 5:00, and do a loop of about 40/45 km's through Alberton and the south back to Meyersdal. You welcome to join, Kid will be riding there 3 x per week for the next 6 months too!!

Cant wait for their new offerings...............

forgot to add its still my fastest. last year I was determined to better that time and ended up with a 3:45....

did my first Argus on this Daccordi. I was in the SANDF and this was the perfect opp to get away from the unit for a week! Was running fit and could do a 2.4 in less than 7 mins. Cycling was another story though!! Good memories 1990/03/10The Argus M-Net Cycle Tour10503:36:48 2816/11235 Trubie2010-03-02 07:04:09

I would suggest, rather go and do the SBR on its own first, you will have a very good idea of how your body react to the reserve. then as a next ride attempt your idea. To do the long loop is about 60 km's, add to that the reserve and the odd km's there and back off the lido loop and youll get more than the 140 you plan. maybe do it in your car first (the route you plan) and then take a decision. the reserve is a tester at the best of times

no its not the same entrance most riders enter and start at the Protea Hotel side, there is a parking area , toilets etc. you can start either side though If you only want to ride in and out again on other side, you will cut about a third of the route off 57/8 km's.
