cat-i Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 This week will be slow. Did ride yesterday witth the mtb in rain. Took a break today and glad I did as the wind came out of nowhere. Will try to ride tommorow but will propably be rainy again and then Thursday looking good. Might then join to others on a commute which propably will be bringing me to tears again. Friday not looking good as heavy rain predictions and we have a seminar in the afternoon and not sure whether to bike or take the train. How much mileage did you do in the last 2 months? I remember around our Sani2C CommutingChallenge-time Isomewhere in May I was chasing you, and now you're more than 1000 km's ahead

I remember around our Sani2C CommutingChallenge-time Isomewhere in May I was chasing you, and now you're more than 1000 km's ahead Did just short of 1100 for May and just over 900 vor June. I aim to commute 300 km per week but that does not pan out always. The week my wife had back problems I only got to do 70km.
Andrew64 Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 Hahaha you started it! I wouldn't have knocked you down a peg if you didn't knock me down a peg first! And while I wasn't looking, Bateleur got his 3000 and a whole lot extraDont believe you, still waiting for a beer or something
cat-i Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 Dont believe you, still waiting for a beer or something Wasn't the beer or something if you let me win? I see there's going to be a 4000 on that list before the end of this week
samson99 Posted July 13, 2017 Posted July 13, 2017 Congrats Stefano for hitting the 4000 mark.Thanks Bateleur. Won't lie, there have been days i wish i stayed in my warm bed. But once on the bike, totally worth it.
Bateleur1 Posted July 13, 2017 Posted July 13, 2017 Thanks Bateleur. Won't lie, there have been days i wish i stayed in my warm bed. But once on the bike, totally worth it. Yip I know the feeling. Was like that this morning. Was only raining slightly and did not feel like commuting. Tommorow the weather is worse and we have a company function off site thus making it inpractical to commute. So I just had to force myself on the bike this morning as it was already a bad week wrt to commuting. But 10 km into the ride the roads dried up and the sun came out and then as you say, so worth it.
mtgoat Posted July 18, 2017 Posted July 18, 2017 I saw a "chat" about commuting buses, but cant find it now. Can someone give me the link?Looking to commute from Plumstead to Paarden Eiland. Was thinking of going Hout Bay - Camps Bay - Town - Paarden Eiland. Thoughts?

cat-i Posted July 19, 2017 Posted July 19, 2017 Will we see another 4000 in this week? There's still this afternoon and 2 more days left?
Hairy Posted July 19, 2017 Posted July 19, 2017 Will we see another 4000 in this week? There's still this afternoon and 2 more days left? was hoping to make 4000, but took the bus in this morning and think this may have dropped me.....woke up, found a flat front tyre and figure I just did not feel like fixing it or cycling....so took the day off from commuting and got to read on the bus too EDIT: ... looks like I can still do if for this week (3947.58 km current)

Bateleur1 Posted July 21, 2017 Posted July 21, 2017 Well I will not hit the 4000 mark before my leave. At least I tried Also almost got taken out by a cat this morning. Hit the poor bugger but luckily did not went over him. More scraped him and then later almost hitting a flying crow as well. The struggle is so real.
