Wednesday? Could be, I can see the resemblance. Especially if it is her, then I definitely see the resemblance. 

 

Ja, that's who I was thinking...

 

Searched for the mommy of the family and bikes...found this:

Thought I'd have some fun after a ride the other day...

 

My cycling evolution:

 

I was an avid runner, but after a knee op in April 2013 I was told I should never run again if I wanted to walk past the age of 40. By October I had fully recovered and figured I needed some form of exercise. My wife suggested cycling, which I was not found of at all, but dusted off the old Makro special and headed to contermanskloof.

 

This is her and my getup at the time:

After my first ride, which was actually just the climb and back down the climb (had no idea how trails worked) I was HOOKED! Thanks wifey!

 

Some rides later I had figured out the trail system and was starting to hit bigger things, I loved it, my Makro special did not. After a stint down the Kloof at conties both wheels were buckled and the head tube cracked top and bottom. So I shopped. At that stage I did not know much about the cycling world, so a salesman told me to get a dual sus XC, so I did.

 

In comes my Axis:

We had an awesome time together, compared to my Makro special, the axis was a luxury car. BUT, as my skills progressed over time, I realised that I wanted more travel and a bike that could take bigger hits, the Axis was struggling and I was getting odd looks from the DH guys standing at the top of a black line drop in on a 29er XC in between all the DH rigs. So after about two years and many upgrades to the Axis trying to get it as close to a trail bike as possible, I bit the bullet and spent more money on a bike than I ever thought I would.

 

The new baby, my Reign:

Every now and then we step outside our comfort zone and try and up our skills a bit more, and get the edge of that oh sh&t feeling. (Generally with a shirt though).

The ugliest ship ever built! IMHO.

Very similar in design and look to the Megayacht "A". Don't like the look of either of them but both will be very difficult to "see" on Radar.

there is ABSOLUTELY nothing awesome about this. Just sheer sadness on all fronts for all reasons.

 

we need more bicycle pics

was not posting it for it's awesomeness, that's for sure.

Yoh! Where did you get this? A lot of questions and major concerns comes from this. The person recording this obviously knew it was going down - incitement of violence? Distribution of violent material? The attacker is incited and obviously primed to attack the guy. The inciter (girl's father?) faces some serious assault charges. Also for the attacker - some serious charges coming his way.

 

If the girl was raped by an obvious very older guy, the necessary medical, and other, evidence should've been taken. He should rot in jail.

 

But, I would have probably acted the same if I was the father. Sorry, let me rephrase, I will do the same. I just don't have a posse of wolves to do it for me...
