  1. Have lived in joburg my whole life and only done 18(could be 1 or 2 out) 947s. Done 31 CTCTs. I used to ride the 947 because I had to when racing. Now that I'm more of a competitive fun rider, I don't bother. To be honest, it's a k@k race. It's not just the route, it's just not organized as well in my opinion. I have done just about every race on our calender and CTCT is tops in every aspect, followed by the kremetart.
  2. Looks like SAAT during lockdown. Couldn't swing a cat there were so many planes parked. Only other time I have seen SAAT so full was the night of the 2010 soccer world cup final. And within 3 hours of the game ending all the planes left. We have never worked so hard in such a short time.
  3. I think what he was saying is LH got a small fine for driving the victory lap without his seat belt on which is actually a safety hazard, whereas MV got fined more than I will earn in many years for simply touching another car. Here in RSA you also get fined for no seat belt but nothing for touching another car. Lighties will see their idol LH showboating like a tool without his seat belt on and want to do the same..........
  4. Not sure if this really qualifies for this thread. I'm on the fence here. Either way, I'm going to get one. https://www.takealot.com/multi-tool-bike-keychain/PLID72183172
  5. LOL sorry with those numbers I can't hey. You add them up and you beat me by 1????.
  6. Lekker man, I thought it only opened at 13h00? I must let my toppie know to log in now.
  7. Jase whatsapped me a lekker Pic with all the entry info, i have sent it to my toppie so he can enter us????????????????????????????????. Will be number 31 for me and 33 for him.
  8. Correct. Some were brand new and some were used NGs but they still had lowish hours. They came from air Austral.
  9. Pretty much all the B737s came with those sheep skin seat covers. You can take them off. Mango also used them.
  10. Good stuff. I have some competition.
  11. If you feel someone pushing you up malibongwe at 947,they actually trying to steal your bike.
  12. Anyone know what happened at sea point? Saw plenty cops and cop cars and those massive riot truck things. Did see a few people standing around with protest boards but nothing to warrant the amount of cops. I rode passed like an hour ago.
  13. I decided to wait a bit and went out not long ago, just got back. A bit cloudy at times but luckily not really windy. Also a bit chilly. All in all nice weather to ride.
  14. 1 more sleep. Whoop whoop. Going for a short ride just now, I see it's cloudy again, hope it clears because I got wet yesterday so didn't have a proper ride.
  15. All depends on what you've done up till now and what your goal is on the training side. Eating, just eat a healthy balanced diet, which is what we should all do year round.
  16. Definitely won't be chowing the pies, don't drink at all and about 4 to 5 kgs from race weight. Whoohoo, muscle memory pappie.
  17. I haven't trained enough to warrant a taper ????. Praying for muscle memory ????.
  18. So unnecessary. RIP. Condolences to his family and friends.
  19. Johann, doesn't own a helmut and wears those tiny shorts and ankle socks. Used to have an old vitus but it got removed from him a few years back near that open field just down from nissan/ford/renault along with a stick to his head, shame he had stitches and everything. There is a driving school there as well. Now he has a titan 29er. Take a wild guess how old he is? and then add on a good few years. Then go and try pick up something heavy, struggle and go ask him. He works for our facilities department, they all contractors, that's how he is still able to be working. He works harder than just about anyone still there and my word he's like an energizer bunny.
  20. All I take from this is I now know how to spell adieux.
  21. I really do wish them and technical all the best of luck and I really do hope for the sakes of my ex colleagues and friends that all the issues are in the past but I really am glad I got out.
  22. They fly either the B777 or A350 here. Both those planes have MASSIVE engines. The B777 was the first twin to go for those ginormous GE90, it has a very distinct sound when ignition takes place during start, we call it the mating call of the GE90.
