Offending transgenders will be nothing once you bigots start offending the transhumans.

Yes this is exactly why I've decided not to do it anymore. Loveday was the best climb in Pretoria for it but by far not the best climb in the world. I would need to go to Full Upper Terry's in Australia to give this record a serious shot.

To break the Everesting record, choosing the right hill is critical (duh). In my opinion this hill is too short in comparison to the current record holder. This is a significant disadvantage as the current record holder was topping 100 kph  on his descents as the descent was 10 times longer. If this chap hits 60 kph before he has to brake to turn around for the next repeat he will be lucky. That is a big speed differential. Multiply this by the number of repeats (197) he has to do compared to the current record holder (53) and you will see he is already at a disadvantage before even starting. Additionally, braking at the bottom of each repeat consumes valuable time, this hill requires 4 times more braking than the record.

If he breaks the record on this hill I will be incredibly impressed, particularly with the knowledge that if he chose a more suitable hill he would go even faster!

That's a good climb but far too much cornering if one is going for a world record attempt.

I think the whole thing about blaming the hill is a bit meh.

He really thinks that the only place to do it is the current record hill, just a bit convenient that it's half a world away. What's excellent about that one is that it's 1.3km long and 13%

 

so i found this one on strava in pretoria

he has the current KOM, it's 1.2km @12%

 

I even put it into the everesting calculator and posted it on his youtube video as a comment.

I'm busy designing new kit. I reckon I'm going to put the word "Omnivore" somewhere discreet for sh1ts and giggles.

For the real ****s and giggles try one of those shark eating a fish images....

You are quite correct sir. We have entered the sixth mass extinction of species in Earths history caused by human population growth. Humans are also one of those species that will go extinct, unless Elon gets us to Mars. The Earth has been through this 5 times before, it will recover, new species will evolve over time and life will continue.

So now we going to have to live to 200 yrs old and move to Mars.....

 

Can’t bladdy wait

Close but no cigar

You are talking absolute codswallop here. Even Hlaudi has a tighter grip on reality and facts than you.

 

 

The problem here is that the first world are recycling, using less fossil fuels and also have a negative population growth (bar the USA which has a positive population growth due to third world immigration). The third world that is the culprit of exponential population growth is also the primary contributor of environmental destruction and pollution.
