Red Zone Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 I hear the water is unusually warm, like in the "no wetsuit" range
sluiper Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 I hear the water is unusually warm, like in the "no wetsuit" range Ha ha, we'll see a mass exodus if that happens.
Adrian Fogg Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 ha ha BRRRRRINGWET SUITS, the water has a little bite to it.
JGR Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 We find that the www.yr.no.com is the most reliable of the lot. But I agree the fisherman normally are spot on with there predictions.Yet the accuracy about how big the fish actually were is never accurate? I believe it was 38 degs there today

I believe it was 38 degs there today oh yes the good old (I caught this size fish story) haha. The temperature was about 25-26 degrees but a hectic North Easterly wind today about 45km/h.
Bodhi Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Lots of crazies with bikes on their cars on the N1/N6. Must be a race on somewhere...
JGR Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Spend most of last night in the ER after getting food poisoning after eating out with my gf. 2 Hours sleep and landed and hour ago - it is cooking here. Was on the plane with Jodie Swallow and James Cunnama

When the spuiting and poeping stops start drinking some electrolytes. Those Rehidrate sachet drinks work really well after food poisoning.
kingalton Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 James Cunnamas bike for this weekend ..GOODNESS it looks fast.
Snytjie Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Arrived last night @22:00 after late start. For those from CT: the road is fine up to 20km past Grahamstown. Then it gets hairy with roadworks up to King Williamstown. Be careful there. It was very hot up to me arriving here (30+). This morning was also hot. Temp gauge in car said 25, but 40km cycle and one lap of run felt more like 30. Very high humidity surprised me. This evening it cooled down nicely with some showers. My weather site says Sunday = same as today but with NE wind. Whatever... After today I'm starting to think that this is going to be fun!

scottm Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 Helloooo Just wandering how the race number works as I only have one, is that correct?Do you only wear it for the run or do you have to wear it on the bike and then unpin it and put it on your running shirt? Did anybody else do the training swim this morning? I feel a lot more confident about it after that apart from not being able to see any of the buoys.
