  1. How much longer are we going to allow these Buffoons to tear away our freedoms. Dont give me this flattening the curve bolloks. We have given over our hard faught freedoms to people who couldnt manage a tuck shop at a school sports day. Seriously there comes a time when enough is enough. We now live in a police state at the mercy of ill trained and incompetent power hungry Cops and soldiers. To deploy the army against your own population is actually treason. We are allowing this Govt to have complete control over where we can move, what we must wear, what we can eat etc. This virus is out there and cannot be stopped. Its like trying to stop the wind. Whats the point of shutting an economy down when 90% of the population cannot through no fault of there own keep isolated or distanced at all. So in reality there has been no lockdown and this virus has still not killed any people. When are people going to actually realise that we elect the Govt and they work for us and for our best interest, and this excuse to completely steamroll our rights is illegal and unconstitutional.
  2. Thanks guys some great advice. Lets hope the sea is calm and flat . Once past the swim im confident with my cycling and running to finish this. Time to put in the hard work now.
  3. Just entered and it will be my first my first triathalon. Im a failry decent runner, did a marathon last year, and can do argus in 3h20 The swim is my weakness, im a strong swimmer but not fast. My main concern is the swim. Is open water swimming really that much tougher than the pool? My goal is to fiinish. i dont want to crawl over the line but i also dont need to race. So i need a good training programme for the above goals. I have 15 weeks to get fit. Any advice for a noob.
  4. And dont forget she is smokin hot.
  5. Oh my she sure is puuurty . Ill take it.
  6. This thread has stated me looking for a new bike. I already own a great full suss trail bike but i have always been drawn to the simplicity of hardtails. I ride very rocky technical stuff so i want an agressive HT. What do you hardtail experts think of the Trek Roscoe? The slade looks nice or should i just build up from scratch. Wheels 27.5 + vs 29er 2.6 inch ? Steel alu or carbon? Big question singlespeed or 1 x 11? Option option options
  7. Yes its like icing a bruise. Stops the swelling
  8. Joe Rogan actually brought this up. He said why do we even have rounds? Just let them fight until there is a winner.
  9. I actually scored the fight a draw. First 2 rounds to Reyes 3 rd round i had a draw last 2 Jones was on top. I felt though if there was another round or two Jones would of had him. But i agree the one judge at 49-46 was on drugs. In my opinion the correct result was a draw. But as you said to beat the champ you need to convincingly beat him. Either way was a great fight but UFC needs to seriously look at how judges score fights.
  10. John Bones Jones manged to defend his legacy against Domink Reyes...... just. Was a great fight one of the best ive seen. 2 unbelievable athletes giving and getting for 5 long rounds. Reyes looks like he will be the next Light heavyweight champ. Dana owes him a re match.
  11. Cowboy was a disappointment he must hang up his boots. ( see what I did there) But this has setup so many potential great fights CM vs KAbib 2 Cm V Masvidal CM V Usman Cm V Colby Good times for ufc
  12. Wow . That was I pressured by CM. He really had a plan and educated to perfection by mobbing slow starter cowboy. This division is getting better and better now . I think next fight must be CM v Masvidal. It will be massive. No direspect to Usman but the fans want to see JM v CM. I’m sure Dana is salivating at getting that fight Organized will be massive. Then winner fight Usman.
  13. Disagree on the grappling. Cowboy is a very good grappler and he has an amazing takedown technique. I think he will want this fight on the ground. Hard to call but i think Cowboy has lost 2 mnay lately i think 4 out of his last 5. SO this could be his swansong. My call Mcregor to win in the 5th.
  14. Dont ride that much about 3 rides a week. My riding habits havent changed from my previous bike, i had xt on that and never had a issue after 4 years . Bike shop owner said to me GX is not quality and wears out very quickly. My one derailer literally exploded the other one got bent maybe i hit a rock not sure. Ive upgraded to xo so far all good. But i think shimano is much more durable , based on past products ive used.
  15. Been thru 2 derailer a cassette and 2 chains in 12 months
  16. NX AND Gx complete trash . Don’t even bother with this low end **** rather stay on 11 speed or cough up for XO or XX
  17. I have enjoyed the new bonds but they seem lost in the world of Jason Bourne, MI etc franchises that have had the jump on Bond recently. That being said Bond needs to get back to what worked and that formula included a Hero that is not the least bit concerned with what is WOKE.
  18. Its not that, the modern day politically correct world cannot allow a Roger Moore type character to pomp his way around the world whilst throwing bad guys to the sharks then chirping a classic one liner. Like this Bond: “Who are you?” Pussy: “My name is Pussy Galore.” Bond: “I must be dreaming.” or Tiger Tanaka: “Rule number two; in Japan, men come first, women come second.” Bond: “I just might retire here.” or Bond: “I was wrong about you.” Christmas Jones: “Yeah, how so?” Bond: “I thought Christmas only comes once a year.” or Never Say Never Again Fatima Blush: “Oh, how reckless of me. I made you all wet.” Bond: “Yes, but my martini is still dry. My name is James.”
  19. Very good film, one of the best ive seen in a few years. Oh and it goes ike This 1. Connery 2. Moore 3. Brosnan Craig is way to serious, Bond has never taken himself seriously.
  20. I want him to do it, as Shaper above said it will break the mental barrier and like the 4 min mile in 10 years become a common occurence.

  22. Thanks for that im building up to longer runs so i will add 10% per week . I do run up signal hill a lot so they helps i just need to slowly build up up to the longer distances . My main query is doing 2 x 10km plus a weekly long run x 11 weeks enough to finish the marathon in a sub 430 or so?
  23. Guys im running my first marathon in 11 weeks . At the moment im running 2 x 10km runs and a long 15-18km on sundays. I still ride MTB 2 x a week plus i do gym 2 x a week .Anything else i should be doing? Aim is to finish in approx 4h30 . Basically happy to finish without walking.
