  1. The Hub jury must still be asleep this morning. Nobody blasted the cyclist for not stopping at a 4-Way Stop. None the less, glad the guy is ok and glad that motorists quickly acted as that is the reason those guys ran. It is sad to see that even in the platteland it is unsafe to do sport at the current rate.
  2. The Universe is talking to you there
  3. Took a easy flat loop this morning before work. Stopped in Wolfratshausen, the town next to us just before the end of my loop for this picture. This is the Loisach river with the old town center just behind the trees on the left of this picture.
  4. Took a quick loop with the mtb before starting my work or the day. Signs of autumn is rather visible in this picture. Although we are having lovely day temps of 25 degrees, the low lying fog in the mornings are there, typical for this time of the year.

  6. Sagz was boxed in
  7. He He. Hub court is in full force today. Ouzo, good post and hear what you are saying. We all make mistakes. I normally try not to overreact when a motorists does something. Used to just bring it to their attention and most of the times they would actually realise their mistake and apologise and I would leave it there and wave and smile and wish them a good day. There were however those times when a motorist would go balastic if you would mention to them they made a mistake.
  8. I always liked a good tow behind a truck especially if the driver was not a cowboy. Since in Germany I very seldom get the chance to motorpace behind trucks as here they are roadworthy and accelerate to fast in most cases but every now and then their is a chance. However I think I am getting old now, I seldom exceed 80 km/h, even on my own going downhill. Roads are also very narrow here and when you have winding pass you can't go to fast you can't use the whole road.
  9. 94 km/h, in the slip of a bus down Eeufees Road in Pretoria. Many moons ago though.
  10. Just seeing the number of Hubbers being hit it is pretty obvious there is already a sharp rise.
  11. A good tight fitting sports bra should sort that out.

    Tennis...

    Read about it in the paper this morning. Now seeing the video, I was amazed that he did not even hit the ball as hard. Just bad luck. Zverev stated it well. Had the ball gone anywhere else it would at worst have been a fine.
  13. Sorry to hear Morne
  14. Can't you go to an exhaust specialist and just have a little mod added to the end of the exhaust to blow down?
  15. Take my hat off for you. I am not made for temps over 35.
  16. Pretty much the same wrt to which pockets I use for what. I lately also carry on long rides on new routes a power bank as the Garmin when it navigates chomps batteries so to enable me to charge the Garmin along the way. But only on routes that I am not familiar with
  17. Please don't let trump read this.
  18. The German tuna is actually not bad. Not my first choice but my wife likes it.
  19. That France cream is actually not a Pizza. Well very similar but a traditional thing actually from France and the parts of Germany bordering France. It is very nice actually.
  20. That could have been my wife painting that. She also can't make up her mind on things often and also often tend to go against the flow of things.

    Who remembers?

    Who remembers the series Sha na na. You just triggered that part of my memory. The original A-team is running on one of the private German channels here. I was channel hopping a couple of months ago and stepped on an episode. Was fun to see the one episode but not like I would set the recorder to keep watching it.

    Who remembers?

    Most of those series were good for its time, but time moves on and even the story lines doesn't fit in nowadays. I remember there was that TV series Chips (those highway patrol cops) we used to love. About 10 years later they did a rerun of the series on TV and I was so excited but after seeing the first episode I was wondering how in the heck I thought this was cool and an utter waste of time.
  23. That is obviously not Cape Town. Where is it?
