Rocket-Boy Posted April 25, 2016 Share 1000mg Vitamin C a day, has had my back all Winter 2015.I'll be doing the same this year! I have tried all kinds of things but for the last month been doing exactly that, strong daily doses of vitamin c. Has already beaten two colds that tried to get started. cfcjim and J∆kk∆ls 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hairy Posted April 25, 2016 Share So you swam home is what you are saying?It looks both awesome and terrible at the same time.so much fun riding through the water ... lot's of laughing all round .... scary not knowing what is lurking below the water, or where any holes/pavements are! highly rate everyone rides through water like this at some stage in their life .... think this is flood no. 4 for me Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belgarath Posted April 26, 2016 Share I hope to commute to work soon. First need to get fit as I have to go over Tiekiedraai. Don't know if its a good idea to start commuting in Winter however? I think start at least. You have a few more minutes daylight down there than what we have up here. Just remember your lights. At the start you'll probably not commute everyday, at least until you have a rhythm going. backtobasics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lechatnoir Posted April 26, 2016 Share The most important thing I've learned during my short time commuting is to get packed the night before and make sure that I know that all my kit is at hand. Make sure tyres are pumped and my steed is good to go. All I need to do is chug a a quick espresso and I'm off Remove all obstacles, so that even when it's dark and cold and rainy and windy, there are fewer impediments to make me take the car/bus.

I have put a list of all items I need for my commute on the cell phone. Even though by now I know the list off by heart, I still check it. It gives me peace of my mind, knowing that I am well prepared for the commute. I hate that gnawing feeling in the back of your mind that you have forgotten something or to discover at the office I didn't pack in my shirt...

I FLY Posted April 29, 2016 Share Not all traffic is stressful. Held up by these guys on my 5km commute home last night. No comparison in stress levels when compared to my previous commute from Sandton to Honeydew. DJR, cat-i and SimpleDom 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kk6gan Posted April 29, 2016 Share I have learnt that an X9 rear derailleur will snap your shifter cable with no warning whatsoever and one should always keep a spare to avoid having to ride all the way home in the hardest gear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernard Horn Posted May 3, 2016 Share Guys who crash their cars on the cycle route on payday weekend are never going to own up or clean up all their glass,carparts and beer bottles.Be careful early in the morning over the weekend Belgarath 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belgarath Posted May 4, 2016 Share Almost barrelled into an idiot that pulled off the road in front of me, then opened his door right as I was passing him. And I forgot my undies.... And I only started feeling my feet again after the shower. Still had fun though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
