  1. And it was a European record
  2. I am not sure how I feel about all of this. I am conflicted. One the one hand I feel almost betrayed that supporters of the site and regular contributors requests are outright ignored, but on the other hand my use of the site is dwindling ....so maybe my input is not the important anyway. I have always mainly played on the NCR side. I think I have sold one bike and bought one bike through here...but it has still be something I interact with daily for the last 12 years. Its also my only real link back to the motherland...but maybe its time to cut the apron strings
  3. Don't disagree with the statement... But as far as the last decade goes.. Rachel Atherton would rank higher than Greg... But I still think nino wins
  4. Nowhere..I like to discuss with like minded people. All those other things can't give you that. The closest is probably Reddit... Which I do use to discuss TV shows.. But it's not the same as this Didn't renew my plus subscription because of this though
  5. but it is not politics, religion or current affairs...so its good even though running is my religion...
  6. I thought it would bug me... But it's not actually. I'm spending less time on here anyway. Some of those offtopics threads have become tiresome I'll just stick around for my staple threads: Running, DH, XC, and then the offtopics: TV, song, movies That said..I think you'll battle to prevent future current affairs discussions... And it's a bit short-sighted to include it in the exclusion list because the next big current affairs thing will want to be discussed by all and everyone
  7. It's only for the last decade. Greg's been dominant over 2 decades... But ninos dominance has been compressed into 1.... The decade in question
  8. so basically discussions around haberdashery only
  9. Watched the leftovers again with my daughter.... Still maintain its my favourite TV show
  10. Undoing was good.. But the end was meh! Mare was great. Kate Winslet is a great actor
  11. Friend in Dublin bought one last year.. But didn't really see any outside of Dublin... Now you're starting to see them more regularly because people are starting to trade them in to upgrade. What's the electric car market like in SA?. I would say the biggest market share at the moment here is the Nissan leaf.. They are pretty accessible.. There's about 4 or 5 companies doing home charger installations and there are chargers at most petrol stations along the motorway.. But it's still limited that I wouldn't mind to go on a road trip with a leaf
  12. Actually nothing.. They're quite nice to drive... But there's a trend of Tesla owners making sure to let people know they drive a tesla... It's quite nauseating now
  13. you missed the latest that is now worse than vegans and crosfitters combined..its the: "I drive a Tesla"
  14. and if you think the bikehub offtopic threads are toxic.......theyre pale in comparison to those. My usage has actually declined on the offtopic threads. Not only because of the UI change, but also just because. I'm mainly in and around running, downhill and XC. Still think diminishing off topic is a bad idea
  15. On another note: Look how pathetic our athletics contingent currently is. Athletics SA is a disgrace kani Simbine, Clarence Munyai, Antonio Alkana, Cheswill Johnson, Ruswahl Samaai, Rocco van Rooyen, Jason van Rooyen, Stephen Mokoka, Desmond Mokgobu, Elroy Gelant, Wayne Snyman, Men’s 4X100m Relay and Men’s 4X400m Relay (The athletes are still to be determined by Athletics South Africa), Wenda Nel, Dominique Scott, Gerda Steyn and Irvette van Zyl
  16. Well I am ridiculously excited for the track and field events. The ultimate showdown is going to be in the 400m and 1500m. I think the 5000m is a foregone conclusion. 800m is also going to be exciting even with the news that Rudisha has pulled out (but his initial announcement he was competing was a surprise anyway). for the 400m. i would love Wayde to take it again and hush all the Norman fans...but I think it is too soon after his recovery Ladies 100m and 200m is going to be a good watch with Richardson and her long nails And then of course...the mens marathon
  17. Justin Theroux playing the lead in a TV series based upon a novel by his uncle... Defintely Added to my watchlist
  18. I have this on repeat-rewind at the moment
  19. No tapatalk support is a game changer for me
  20. Het Chris al gery?
  21. As has been mentioned.. It was the last decade..2010 to 2020. No one dominated in that period more than nino. Closest was Rachel.. But even there were had Manon, pompon, Tracey etc stealing her thunder temporarily.
  22. Its very good.. But then it's got Jared Harris too
  23. no one gonna beat Nino schurter in that list...but then its a vote system and pinkbike readers are not XC fans really
  24. I see Kate Cortney Broke her arm in Czechia and still carried on and finished the race. Pretty beastly stuff that
