Dips ek sien nie jou naam op die lys nie..................HOEKOM NIE ???

We all know by now that Escapee is a guy.....so judging by his claimed height as given by 50 CC (as Dips calls him) does he then qualify for the thread ?

My guess that Dips might be in the same boat.......kudos to the guys who managed to break that sub 90 mark.....let's see how soon I can join that group.....

Well, with all you guys cheating on the second day already, this comp is going to be a walk in the park.

 

My daughters started to bake there cookies and other sweet stuffs for the holiday and I didn't taste one, despite many offers and this was frikkin hard. What makes it harder is that daddy is now the bad guy because he doesn't like their cookies.

 

Except for weekend rides, I currently don't train during the week due to work load, but hopefully from next week I'll get some descent training when on Holiday.

 

good luck guys, and remember to have those beers and fruit cakes, hahaha.

HAHAHAHA! Yeah, I know. 

 

Already down a kilo from last week, and this week should see a further drop barring any disasters like last night's...

I think he was referring to V12

That's great, pity you don't have a Black Steer in WC so you can reward yourself, best eaten in one sitting.  :w00t:

Yes.....I was referring to V12 (50 cc) talking about your height......if you are 2 feet tall  :ph34r: then you should be here.....regardless of being under 90.....so my assumptions as to why Dips os not here is that he is also in the sub 90 bracket.....but my guess is that you might be taller than 50 cc

Thanks to the OP for starting this thread, and for all the posts made thus far.

It made me get of my lard ass and back on the bike for the first time since mid April 2015. Been letting myself go a bit, but it's time to get fit and slim again.

Not going to register or anything here, but will follow closely.

So this seems to be like a two horse race then. we'll see who is the thoroughbred then.. the short term guy or the life guy, hehe

 

(jeepers, I'm putting a lot of pressure on myself)

As Naas Botha famously said, the Currie Cup is not won in May.

 

We are not cheating, we are pacing ourselves.

 

Like the Munga, this is going to be a hard, long struggle and it does not help peaking too soon. :whistling:  :whistling:

I hear you. Ek is lekker groot bek. I go on holiday on Tuesday and then my challenge really starts. Although I'll be able to ride and jog more, it's going to be difficult to sit at the sea for 3 weeks and not cheating. Fortunately my wife supports me very well and baked some banting cookies and rusks, which is nogal quite lekker.

The man, um, horse with a tapered feedbag should take it...

My Diet started officially this morning (last koeksister went down the hatch just after 5am this morning) now the house is clean of all evil...till saturday when its my bday party, accept for the alcohol it should actually be quite fairly low carb party, biltong and droewors as snacks and ribs and sushi as mains.

 

But i got a ride in on monday morning, a short relaaaxed night ride last night with the kiddies and tomorrow and friday morning should be hard training rides and should be able to work another on saturday.

 

This alone should see me a bit down on monday. I'll hit it hard from next week!

I also leave on Tuesday and then the problems start.

 

1st day problem:   cycle from Willowmore to Klaarstroom - 100 km

2nd day problem:  cycle from Klaarstroom to Prince Albert over Swartberg pass - 94km

3rd day problem : cycle from Prince Albert to Calitzdorp over Swartberg pass - 87 km

4th day problem : cycle from Calitzdorp to van Wyksdorp over Rooiberg pass - 55 km

 

You didn't really think that I did not have a strategy before I created this challenge did you ?? :ph34r:
