LeTurbo Posted February 23, 2012 Share If anyone other politician than Hellie did it, we'd have to make way for the blue light brigade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tankman Posted February 23, 2012 Share This is not her first Argus, she has completed a couple in her younger years. Great that's she is getting back on the bike tho! Good luck with the World Funride Championship Auntie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJR Posted February 23, 2012 Share I cannot for the life of me remember his name. But our ex-minister of defence often rode in races. He did a rather impressive face plant, on the tar, directly next to me at the Herald a number of years back.Mosioua Lekota? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, wait, no one else is involved and you're doing it already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tumbleweed Posted February 23, 2012 Share Fark steaks. I wouldn't try that with an ex MK leader with the nickname terror... He got soft. He said the SADF would be the "policemen of Africa", until Tim Sebastian picked him out for sending engineers instead of real soldiers to sort out problems in the DRC.

Tubehunter Posted February 23, 2012 Share Saw Helen Zille out on the road about a week ago. She was cycling with one other cyclist who looked like her 'cycle trainer'. Went past then when she was doing the run up over Llandudno in Bantry Bay and she went the distance as I came by them after going over and back up Bossie myself.when she was close to Dudno then. Smiled and waved as did she. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iwan Kemp Posted February 23, 2012 Share I saw her on yesterday after her training ride inspecting one of the MyCiti terminals as she was passing by and used the opportunity to do a little work. There was a small group of cyclist (around 5 maybe) and very little fuss around her. Most of the commuters who passed by had no idea of who she was. She just came in very low profile and left the same way. Respect to her Hairy The last two Fridays I've been to two Business Brief Breakfasts. One with Zille, one with Zuma the day after his big speach. Just by chance Zille and I arrived at the CTICC at the same time - she was driving herself! When she got out she greeted just about everybody who was waiting for her on their first names. No big entourage, no fuzz no drama. When she spoke it was an honest (if somewhat "political") and from the heart. Direct. Even had a swipe at an issue or two. Stayed for breakfast which she had at a table in between the rest of us. Afterwards she did her rounds talking to the people and answering more questions. She even posed for a pic with our MD and EC. Asked who we were and where we are from. Nice. A funny moment was when someone via sms asked who (what designer) she was wearing. She buys from a factory shop in Elsiesrivier! Zuma on the other hand arrived with the blue light brigade. Lots of fuzz and people running around not knowing what's cutting! When he arrived at the breakfast hall there was a MASSIVE entourage of which NONE knew where he was suppose to sit and at the same time not letting anybody wanting to tell him / them near them Quite funny actually. I must admit that I found him more personable as I would've imagined and the man has a sense of humor. But his answers weren't always to the point and it was very long-winded. The second he was done there was big commotion again with no one allowed near him. Gone before you could say "dry bacon". Not trying to say much (maybe I should run for parliament!), but the difference between the two was very apparent. Party and political issues aside I like her. Just a Tannie who loves our country and a will to make a difference. Hairy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
