  1. If they were talking about Magaluf then their adventures involved committed cash only long term (<1hr) relationships.
  2. I reckon you're right. I've always said the long range weather forecast is a day late in this town.
  3. not related but we rode with tin foil over our socks in Mallorca. Worked like a charm. (I actually just wanted to drop the word Mallorca into this thread) Mallorca.
  4. Went for a run up Chappies on Sunday. It was so so scary and I spent most of my time running well off the road. My one mate who rode his bike reckoned it was like playing Frogger (80's video game. Before your time) Next week it's over and we'll ride from Jubilee square to Scarborough without seeing another soul again.
  5. Pull in at Woodcutters. It's in HB so well out of your 1km radius but it's pretty festive on race day.
  6. Ja I am illiterate and can't read.
  7. Forget what I said. I'm illiterate.
  8. There were more that that out on the route yesterday.
  9. This isn't a problem. The transfering attorneys pay this and then the seller gets his proceeds net of those deductions. Standard practice.
  10. For sure. But my point stands. A dollar billionaire doesn't shop for birds on Tinder. Those people move in COMPLETELY different circles to normal people. He'll be dating princesses and supermodels that he met on the Ferrari yacht at the Monaco GP. I'm not saying those women deserved it AT ALL. But my god they are doff.
  11. Look No one deserves to be done in like those women. BUTTTT a billionaire who's father is friends with Putin and flies around in private jets isn't going to be looking for love on Tinder. He's going to be picking up super models at yacht parties in Monaco. Jirrrrre.
  12. Yes this is SA where you have to lock up your locks but that's been there several months. The owner of that garage is a super energetic and friendly guy and deserves all the success that comes his way. BTW there's a seattle there so you can top up on caffeine and rib your mate for not carrying the right tools all at the same time.
  13. WHAAAAAAATTTTT? What is wrong with these people?
  14. Haha. No I'm serious. You okes have all done stuff. My longest ever run is 15km. That's it. I run 15-20k a week. Anyways. You asked for it. I bought Asics GT2000 8's on the advice of someone on this thread. Purely because I seemed to be rolling my ankle every other run and the wisdom on this forum was that I needed a support shoe. The GT2000's were great and have now transitioned to my dog walking, summer driving to a surf shoe. As for the Kayano's. Compared to the GT2000's they feel a little warmer and the colorway is about as exiting as a Cyril speech. They do feel great tho and there's definitely a different feel to them compared to my old shoes. They feel way less harsh but that hasn't translated to faster times on chappies. If I get mugged on my run tomorrow morning I can't think of a compelling reason to replace them with anything else.
  15. Eeerm. I hardly qualify as a real runner so I'd be reluctant to give a review on them. They feel hotter than the GT2000's I was using but they do feel less harsh.
  16. I think they are great and any negative comments I make are 100% out of jealousy. As an aside there's a company called Stark making an electric motocross bike called the Varg. It claims the same range as a motocross bike with a full tank of gas. The full monty one produces up to EIGHTY bhp and is fully tunable. So it can emulate anything from a 125cc 2 stroke up to an 80 bhp firebreathing monster. For reference a 450 motocross bike makes around 50 bhp and that's generally way more than enough. Now if Asics could please make some E-running shoes for me......
  17. I've never understood the obsession with Garmin. If you are on a budget you can get a Giant Neos GPS for R1500. It doesn't link to a power meter or a cadensiometer. If you don't use those things it's a great option You can also get the Giant Neos Track (bigger with more functions) for under 3k.
  18. Ok so report back time on my ordering process through poopie naidoo. I ordered Gel Kayano 28's and my bird ordered Gel Numbus 23's. I got a different colorway to what I ordered but I don't really look at my feet when I'm running so it's all good. Tomorrow we'll test them out.
  19. I maintain that if you stay away from the bars and the restaurants feeding yourself in Europe is cheaper than here. That's certainly been my experience.
  20. Jirre bru. 70k for a Kickr Bike. And you can only ride it in a cartoon.
  21. My little family shares 1 direct drive trainer and 3 bikes. What's the problem? To ensure easy swapping the bikes all have the same axle setup and number of gears. Swapping a bike out takes all of 1 minute. We use Rouvy coz $15 gives you 3 users. Each person has their own login and metrics. We use 1 computer that has the software installed. There's a spare TV that gets used as a second monitor. There's absolutely no issues at all.
  22. I just went for the newer version of what I'm on. This running thing is much like my surfing. I don't have the time (or money) to experiment on maybe's so I just get the thing that I know works. I pay more for my boards but I KNOW they will work from wave #1.
  23. I looked at the Nike online store at the knit something and blah. Their support shoe. And the video of the guy modellling the shoe has me so disturbed that I can't see myself buying a Nike product ever again. I was never a fan of Nike but this has closed the door forever. https://www.nike.com/za/t/react-infinity-run-flyknit-2-road-running-shoes-QTGr9C/CT2357-007
