Going like a nose diving Boeing out of the race due to unforeseen circumstances, lost 12kg, not as fit as I would like to be, but a really good base for next year.......

...and then there's this:

How to be really stupid and still be lucky. The funniest thing is that it's referred to as a "charge". They have no idea.

As witnessed recently in the Baviaans, the confused and panic stricken Bosbok may pose a bigger threat to cyclists than the mighty Buffalo. Long may that continue.

Had a Kudu jump across the road about 5m in front of me and my bike in the Osseberg during a pleasure ride in 2014. It in one jump appeared from the bush in the lower ying left up the embankment on the right. Crossed the track and jumped up the embankment several meters high in one go even more scary than the umongous monkey that I could hear for atleast 15min before i spotted it. the size of a professional sumo wrestler on the other river bank. 

 

The Buffalo reminds me and JT stopping for a middle of the road picknick in 2015. Two guys appearing from the bush with a massive rifle. The guys please pack up and go eat outside the park we are after a Buffalo that attacked several cars here yesterday. They didn't know the exact location but we where most likely very close. We dodged a Buffalo there and some ranger bullets aswell.

are the guys going to be using those GPS tracker thingies again?

Yes, Spot trackers through the Trackmybike interface. Works extremely well.

I heard a bird whistle that it's going to be a awesome year to watch and to race, truly a great line racing line up, I'll have to start banking on sleep, cause it's going to be a sleepless event to be repeated.......

 

Maybe I must give the Boeing some clean air and lift the nose....

Has anyone got suggestions for the best Cycle computer for RASA.(non GPS of course). 

I can't find any with Dist1 and Dist2 as well as ODO apart from Cateye.
