  1. This weekend's rides. Perfect weather [emoji108]
  2. #finishenklaar
  3. I see the new changes in my Strava mobile app - limited leader-board etc, but I can still see my personal previous attempts on a segment
  4. Essential agricultural feed delivery
  5. Anyone walking up an Alpine pass wearing a suit and tie must have been on dope
  6. Two bikes: 2 years for me, 1.5 years for my wife - I feel exactly the same. That time include loads of thunderstorm / very wet rides and @ high heat. I only charging the battery every 2-3 months. Not a moment of issues for me.
  7. Yup, TdF 2013 stage 9 come to mind. Although that was many many moons ago...
  8. Perfect morning [emoji108]
  9. Hi BSG, yes ended up in Outeniqua strand. This is going to take a while [emoji2357] - Hope I make it home before 2021... In the meantime, I can think about worse places to be stuck during this time. Very safe here in terms of the virus as well. Still many local riders to meet [emoji6]
  10. First coffee during a ride in 40+ days. Aalwyn tyd is n mooi tyd [emoji108]
  11. Just a real question to understand/interested - because you are not allowed to take water or is it absolute not allowed in SA? I ask because in Malaysia most of the fasting guys ride in the evenings after iftar, but some do ride during the morning/day - but DONT consume water/anything. Which is nuts in that climate, but allowed.
  12. You just solved my similar problem of losing out on 19.63km^2 of riding area. (Locked down in Glentana)
  13. Payback time - Google "Nkosazana Dlamini Zuma Adriano Mazzotti" Anyone who know what is the current black market price for a packet?
  14. Attempted a HITT session in the very private backyard of our temp lock-down accommodation. Torn a calve muscle. 95kg cannot accelerate and de-accelerate like that
  15. Awesome pic!
  16. Now that is a track I'm adding to my bucket list to ride one day.
  17. Well done sir, tip my hat to you.
  18. Out to wiggle the hips (downhill)
  19. Agree 100% with this. I'm 49 years old, long term cyclist, 19 years since previous 21km and a non-natural runner (i.e rugby prop): Took me 18 months before I could run a 21km (no walking / sub-2h) in Dec 2019. I did 4 earlier as part of 3x70.3's and a night run - but that was more walking than a elephant shuffle.I followed a couch to 5k app initially - but had to take it twice as as slow - bones and joins just could not do it quicker. I had to learn to run again! (Dont think I would have been able to get going if I waited another 10 years)I had to focus on running technique before I could get past injuries - I kept on getting injuries (lightly torn calf muscle) on border (bottom and sides) of calf where it taper into the bone/other flesh - pretty much exactly the location devocean describe above. (I had to force myself to take shorter steps. The moment I tried to go fast with big strides instead of higher tempo... - bang - injury. This video made a massive difference to my natural bad style - probably the worst case scenario.)
  20. Phuket over Christmas and into 2020. The 6.5km loop around Bang Wad dam was pretty good[emoji108]
  21. Whoa, where is this?
  22. Jig, that is really good time - respect!
