  1. I got bitten by a dog once. I don't call him anymore.
  2. DMC007, I could be old enough to be your mommy or worse, have hairy legs. Can we start next Saturday as I'm away this week. Main Road at the Builders Warehouse entrance, meet 6h45, to leave 7am latest. That ok?
  3. Road bike on tar.
  4. Thanks Johan. I emailed her.
  5. Ag shame man Buffwack, would have liked to join you, but ja... Good luck. Hope you get a decent response. Desi, it is road although I do the odd mtb ride on a w/end, but I suck at it (because I don't do it enough). Because I can't do a back to back long ride (Saturday and Sunday), I'd say anything under 80km on a Saturday is a waste of time. 25km ave? I've been of sick for 4 weeks so I might drop back to 15km ave. I'm only laughing on the outside...
  6. Hi Slave, ok, good idea. Sorry if I offended. Really don't mind the guys but just find they 'loose the plot' sometimes. For example, see hill, must sprint hill. Hey wena, I'm trying to work on endurance here. Not bloody race every Saturday. Consistant distance training at a lekker pace (not racing) is the aim for me. If that's anyone here's aim, by all means, PLEASE join me/us.
  7. Any 'slow' to 'medium' paced girls to join me for endurance rides on Saturday mornings. Please pm me.
  8. http://www.beeld.com/Suid-Afrika/Nuus/8-kort-n%C3%A1-mekaar-beroof-20100509 8 kort n? mekaar beroof Vyf fiets- en drie motorfietsryers is eergisteroggend kort n? mekaar op dieselfde plek by Pretoria oorval en van hul selfone, geld en fietse beroof. Twee gewapende rowers wat in die lang gras langs ?n grondpad in Hoekplaats, suidwes van die stad, geskuil het, het die agt mans van hul vervoermiddels gedwing en hulle met draad vasgebind. Mnr. Deon Cilliers (39) van Lonehill in Johannesburg, wat saam met vier ander fietsryers van die Cycle Lab-fietsryklub oorval is, het gister ges? die rowers was baie kalm en doelgerig. ?Ons was op ?n oefenrit en het oudergewoonte di? steil bult aangedurf omdat dit goeie oefening is,? het Cilliers ges?. Op pad boontoe het drie motorfietsryers hom verbygesteek. ?Naby die bokant van die bult hetek een van die motorfietsryers op sy maag op die grond sien l?. Net daarna het ?n gewapende rower in die pad gespring en ?n silwer rewolwer op my en my vriend gerig. ?Die rower het ges? ons moet stil wees en kalm bly. Hy en nog ?n rower het ons langs die drie motorfietsryers op ons mae laat l? en ons hande styf agter ons r?e vasgebind. ?Drie minute later het hulle die volgende fietsryer en ?n minuut later die laaste twee fietsryers ook oorrompel.? Die rowers het hul selfone afgeneem. ?Een van die fietsryers se regterhand is klein en half gebreklik en daarom kon hy homself en toe vir ons loswikkel.? Die motorfietsryers, wie se motorfietse deur die rowers agtergelaat is, het die fietsryers opgelaai en ?n polisievoertuig voorgekeer. Die fietsryers wie se name Cilliers ken, is mnre. Simon Murray en Greg en Michael von Holtz. ?Ons hoor elke liewe naweek van nog ?n fietskaping; dit moet stopgesit word,? het hy ges?. Kapt. Agnes Huma, polisiewoordvoerder, het ges? die waarde van die gesteelde goed, insluitend die vyf fietse, beloop sowat R200 000. Mnr. Andr? Snyman, hoof van eblockwatch, ?n nasionale selfoonnetwerk teen misdaad, het ges? eblockwatch is besig om ?n nasionale hulplyn vir fietsryers te stig. ?Ons het die laaste tyd agtergekom al hoe meer fietsryers word gekaap en het besluit om ?n nasionale ondersteuningstelsel vir fietsryers op die been te bring. Fietse het geen opsporingstoestelle in soos baie motors nie en dit is baie makliker om ?n gesteelde fiets te verkoop,? het Snyman ges?. ?Van die fietse kos tot R65 000, dus is dit ?vinnige geld? vir die misdadigers. ?Dit is ook baie makliker om ?n fiets weg te steek of daarmee weg te kom as ?n motor.? Snyman het ges? eblockwatch gaan sy fietsryer-lede van ?n paniek-reaksiediens op hul selfone voorsien en sal voortaan op Saterdae veiligheidsmaatskappye kry om te help om gewilde fietsroetes in Gauteng te beveilig. Huma vra enigeen met inligting om die Erasmia-polisie te bel by 012 370 1777.

  10. And I made a decision this weekend not to read the news anymore... Anyway, yes, that?s life in SA. I cycle with a shock gun and pepper spray in <?: prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Tokai Forest. The funny thing is I'm not even afraid anymore. I'm angry. I would stay clear of me. Touch my (beautiful girlie) bike and die!
  11. There you go again. Can you explain what you mean by savage? A guy that does not pay his workers a fair wage? I guy that disowns others of their land by deceit and violence? A guy that treats the less fortunate as sub-human? A guy that destabilises a sub continent? A guy that believes that God supports his racist world view? A guy that tries to hide is insecurities behind pseudo intellectualism? OR is a savage anyone who does not agree with you? And you actually believe that they killed him because of a wage dispute. I guess they confirmed that with dead ET.
  12. After loosing a motorcycling friend yesterday in Adderley street (hit by a taxi) I can't help but agree with Nicci. I'm sorry to be negative, but I do think we are fighting a loosing battle. Please prove me wrong. Having said that, can I just ask why don't SignUp and ThinkBike work together? Why must there be two organisations fighting for the same cause?
  13. I was there Persona. What a rush. Was impressed with the amount of woman taking on this tuff race.
  14. Wow. That's perfection for you. Congrats to you both.
  15. I'm sure you are a nice guy Gobbo, but even nice guys have to 'vat wat hulle uitdeel'.
  16. I heard Gobbo can't hold his wine...I mean line.
  17. Roer

    Lance = ?????

  18. Help.Me. that's quite an impressive site. (I love your quote. Let that be a lesson to me). Also, thanks Cassie, will do.
  19. Thanks Kosmonooit. That tail wind gives me hope. Slipstream, heat is not my enemy. I can handle it. Wind on the other hand... Good luck guys.
  20. This windguru thing changes by the minute but just to confirm... If I look at the knots predicted for Cape Town, its still fairly ok. (I'm light so anything above 12 knots is a nightmare for me). Ok, enter Cape Point. Mother!! 24 knots?! Somebody please explain to me, a South Easter at Cape Point, is that good or bad? And for goodness sake, if one more person tells me it can't be worse than last year, I'm going to loose it. I don't care about last year. (You can tell I'm a tad stressed about Sunday...)
  21. Great stuff. Thanks to all involved.
  22. Come on guys and girls. There is still hope... its fast fading, but its there.
  23. Splat's guy is in Hermanus. My girl is in Cape Town.
