  1. Just purchased one of these after seeing it at my mate... Looks really good and price is good (confirmed on Serval Tracker) Xiaomi Mi 16 in 1 ratchet screwdriver
  2. So I know this place is for the proper coffee aficionado's so please don't lynch me with my post.. Out with the old and in with the new: Introducing Judy who makes everything so much better:
  3. Logitech MX Keys and Logitech MX Master 3 🐭 Now I can type and mouse around this place like a racing snake 🥷
  4. I also have a Ciovita indoor bib (the black one) and as mentioned by thebob, the sizing is a bietjie small but quality is good
  5. This is how I will remember Cois- the definition of determination and courage!
  6. As mentioned by others, you have a whole group of people here, willing to assist in any way we can, so feel free to reach out. Perhaps it could also help to speak to a professional - there's no reason you should suffer alone when there are people who can help. Regarding the trainer - I'm more than happy to chat to you if you'd like to get you up and running... heck I think we're even friends on Zwift 😎
  7. Reinet, I'm absolutely devastated to hear this- I'm so so sorry for your loss 😢 Despite not having met him, it was such a privilege be part of this unfortunate journey and be beyond inspired by his courage and determination to fight right till the very end. I and I think everyone here have learnt so many life lessons from Cois that we will carry with us forever. Wishing you and the family comfort and strength during this time
  8. Hey Cois, Just wanted to pop in and see how you're doing? I hope you're ok and that things are settling down ???? KEEP AT IT!!!
  9. I'd deff go the SSD or M.2 route (if the device supports it) and perhaps consider upping the RAM if its got less than 16Gb of RAM. My lil NUC runs Zwift perfect like this.
  10. This could be an option for some: https://shop.dbg.co.za/mups60w17-6ah.html R1183.00 incl VAT
  11. I used to plug a 60 or so watt fan into the inverter and barring the motor hum (it's a non sine wave inverter), it worked fine. I've since upgraded to a much larger fan but will see what load this puts on the inverter and see if it'll work.
  12. I have the same system which is hooked up to my trainer (Wahoo Kickr 3), mini PC and TV and it works perfectly... Spent a few afternoons last week running the various "Norsk extension cables" from the inverter to all required bedrooms and pain cave. I just left the fan out of the equation. Still need to neaten everything up ????
  13. @CoisJust wanted to wish you and the Mrs an awesome trip and safe travels ???? Hoping that this trip gives you guys all the energy and strength that you need to kick the cancers butt!
  14. I found that this happens to me periodically... I found that using a VPN usually sorts this out. You can use the free version of Proton VPN if you don't have one already ????
  15. EFT done... hoping that this trip is the boost that you & your Mrs need to klap this thing! Keep fighting Cois!!!
  16. Cois, you've been let down in a massive way by the medical fraternity- I'm so sorry that it's come to this ???? Wishing you all the strength that you need to keep pushing on. We're all still rooting for you and will carry on doing so!
  17. So happy to hear that it seems like you've found a great doctor and your scooter. I reckon you need to add a dropper post too for the twisty bits ???? You've got this!
  18. Cois, if you can, try focus on getting well and your marriage.... everything else right now (I think) is second priority. My colleague's dad has a mobility scooter and when I heard about this, I asked if you could borrow it. Unfortunately, his uncle needs it in KZN as he also can the dreaded C. If his uncle didn't need it, you could've used it ???? Hope the scooter test drives go well and that it's a great day and week ahead- hang in there ????
  19. Cois, once all this nonsense is past, I look forward to crowd funding for your next bike with the gang here! Hang in there!
  20. Cois, what you're going through is just not normal and I am always amazed at how you manage to push on despite every obstacle that is thrown your way. I think most of us can relate to the family members who care more about the material things than their actual loved ones- just know you're not the only one who has this k@k! My Mrs and I made a small donation to your backabuddy campaign - we're rooting all the way for you Cois!
  21. I think these were the guys: https://vymaps.com/ZA/Wahoo-kickr-gen-1-2-3-upgrade-to-silent-version-111998400279762/
  22. Welcome to the fam! Can't comment on the Sufferfest as I haven't used it but this is what works best for me: Trainingpeaks premium - you can find coupon codes online for a discount on the yearly sub - it's worth it IMO as I use it to plan all my workouts using the calendar - the ability to drag n drop/copy pasta workouts is great. Then I purchased a 3 month structured training plan within Trainingpeaks. Did an FTP test (in Zwift), did the 3 month plan, re-did an FTP test and started the same plan again by copy/pasta'ing it with my improved FTP test. That has worked great for me. Zwift - I use this as my riding platform. Once linked to Trainingpeaks, your workouts appear in Zwift. I find that Zwift helps with the gamification/social aspect as it somewhat removes the monotony of indoor riding. Plus if you're into racing, you can do Zwift races/events. Some folks swear by Trainer Road but I haven't used it so can't comment. I also find that the structured workouts which Zwift has are not great, hence my suggestion of using Trainingpeaks. Shout if you get stuck ????
  23. I and I'm sure most here have absolutely no idea what you're going through but I'm truly hopeful that all the treatment and side effects will be worth it in the long run! Please thank your Mrs for being an absolute rock star and taking such good care of you!! Stay strong Cois!
