    Ah, now that would be lovely. Even just a price freeze that they advertise often will probably do the trick.

    On a side note, I actually feel sorry for the charities this year. With the entries not selling out they have lost the desperate cyclists looking for an entry no matter the cost. Obviously they still get the people that do it willingly but it would be interesting to know how this has adversely affected their selling of entries.

    I do find it funny that most of the articles paint the situation as if they won't be flying at all anymore and will be mothballed and never seen again. It sad to see it stop production I guess, but guarantee we will still see them flying for many years to come.

    You forgot to put your seeding in, you just put a "#"

    Imagine how much faster he is going to go now!!!
  6. Jase619
    Yeah, I get that, was just a bit of a kick in the balls to see the start group drop haha
  7. Jase619
    Agreed, seeding index didn't really change either yet we also dropped a few groups. Oh well
  8. Jase619
    Not sure if this is directed at me or yourself, but agreed

    Meh, it's worth it for me. Coming from a small town you struggle to get certain things and this usually affords me the opportunity to purchase them without having to go through a lot of effort. Your experience is based on your attitude, if you see it as a waste of time and a trap then that is how you will experience it.

    Relax man, sheesh, he was making an observation on the general trend that repeats itself every year. See my comment below. Same thing. Next we will hear the bitching about having to trek to the expo and how its a waste of time bla bla bla. No need to get your mammaries in a twist.

    Also time for the annual: "I'm seeded in [insert group here], what's my chances of making a Sub 3?"

    You don't know what you are talking about as you aren't a licenced elite and don't know how it works unless you have ridden in those bunches
  14. Jase619
    Goodness okay, didn't know they did it down to 3rd decimal places
  15. Jase619
    Is it out?
  16. Jase619
    Do as Ouzo suggested, report his race number and have them investigate it. That's the kind of thing that puts people in the higher starting groups that don't belong their and cause crashes and incidents. Edit: Atrocious spelling and grammar
  17. Jase619
    Was it early on in the race? Saw a guy getting loaded into an ambulance probably around 10-20km in?
  18. Jase619
    They are based in Bloem, they do fly as far as I am aware.
  19. Jase619
    Caught me out last year as well, will be prepared for it this year haha

    Just remembered a pretty insane experience that I had a few years ago, we went to watch a night shooting display at the army base in Bloemfontein. This included some missile firing runs and so on from a few Rooivalk Helicopters. On our way into the base, while driving along the access road, the 2 Rooivalke were flying up and down the road showing off a bit. Unexpectedly, one of them decided it would be a good idea to fly next to me on the road, with the helicopter facing towards me!!! The look on our face must have been priceless as the Pilots burst into laughter before flying off. The amazing skill those pilots have to fly sideways along a road is insane.

    Along the centre white line apparently

    First Flight was in 2016. After my first Argus, between Cape Town and Bloemfontein with Mango. Super short. Crapped myself on Takeoff, and on Landing haha. Now I love it.

    You took what I meant and put it in better words, naturally pressing too hard won't work, was more referring to the right amount of pressure per string.

    Always disliked this video and the whole premise of it being a conspiracy. It's an oversimplification of musical theory. Based on your example of C G F Am, you could play all those songs in D A G Bm and it would sound the same, just in a different key
  25. Jase619
    That being said, teaching new fingers to Barre a fret properly is an art form on its own. Nothing is more annoying than a dead string because your finger isn't pressing hard enough
