  1. Simple rules to follow.. 5l = Races that are supported along the way (ie: Cape Town Ultra - tons of water points, will carry the bare necessities, less food, min. liquids) 12l = Races that have minimal or no support (ie: Mnweni - completely on your own, need to carry thermals, all food etc)
  2. If you can still find them, then grab a pair of First Ascent Magnitude Shorts. Best in the business. Otherwise grab their new X-Trail tights. http://www.firstascent.co.za/shop/mens-x-trail-short-tights/
  3. Picked up an Ambit 2S from clevertraining.com last year. Loving it, meets all my needs (running, mtb, gym, duathlons, hiking etc). Took around 5-6 days to get here from the US. Duties were around 10%, VAT at the usual 14%.
  4. So no rain here yet in Bryanston.. Very gloomy though. Let's hope it keeps holding!
  5. Entered the individual, see you there with the nerd
  6. Entered the Full! Gonna be much better with the cooler weather.
  7. First event for me, did the half to see what the level would be, must say it was a good mix of tech and jeep track.. Heat was hectic but very keen to take the step up to the full in June! Believe I came in around 1h15.. Anyone know where / when the official results will be up?
  8. Great to hear this! Got my Ambit 2S from Clevertraining last year and the heart rate strap seems to have deteriorated a lot faster than my previous Polar strap did. Been wanting to contact them to see what they can do. Could you PM me their details?
  9. Weather is looking good.. Good luck to all!!
  10. Cruising with the nerd. Corp group. Think its actually at 7:45. See ya at the pub!
  11. 45% duties on clothing. Always work on a total of around 67% of total commercial value (as VAT is never just 14%... Need to factor in other charges). The clearing / disbursement fee most likely bumped the total charge up. What was the initial shipping charge? A few courier companies will advertise a lower shipping charge but will nail you when the goods have landed / cleared.
