Linked to the custom of celebrating 21st birthdays perhaps? They were going to do 20, but didn't like the original design of the shirt. It needed to be iconic, and timeless. So they commissioned Jenni Button to design it, and it took much longer so the extra year. DJR, gerriemtb, DieselnDust and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JM Rides Bikes Posted March 27 Share Hi all. I’m looking for the photos taken up chappies climb by the gentlemen in the photo I captured via my GoPro. He doesn’t look like an action photos SA photographer. (Normally in high visibility vest) The stepping into the road during a climb doesn’t bother me🤣 just want to see what photo he captured so I could post it in social media. 😝 IG: Jm_Rides_Bikes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forthefun Posted March 30 Share On 3/15/2024 at 12:15 PM, Steven421 said: Following this thread.... The 947 2024 would've been my first proper "long distance" road race. But I am now reconsidering due to the safety of riders aspect. Me and my wife ride together, and obviously she cannot keep up with me after the first 30-40km of a hard-ride. When we do group rides on weekends I need not to worry about her, because I know she will be in a group and not left alone. But, when it is only me and her doing a long ride, I tend to hold back a lot after the first 30-40km to ensure that we either ride together. I then end up doing a Zone1&2 ride that started out as high intensity. Her day remains productive, and mine becomes a recovery ride. Just because of this safety concern, I will never be able to focus on my own ride & effort. What do you fine people suggest we do. 1) Don't worry, and just ride 94.7 2) Move our focus to CTCT 2025 and train towards this event. PS : we also have a Suikerbos(sie), this side of the border which I enjoy riding, but the wife hates it. Sincerely - I would never ride with a lady - way to much risk as the start when you drive in hundreds of vagrants “trying to park your car “”, when you park and some parts of the route - not worth it as we seen when something goes wrong the lumps of poo 💩 do nothing , are not trained and don’t care !!!!!!!!!! Never risk this ride for your safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisF Posted August 12 Share Bit of a thread hi-jack .... actually there have been questions along these lines earlier. CTCT race entry - how do you do this without a credit card ? Are there any other events that insist on credit card payment ? PS - would a VISA debit card do the job ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you navigate this modern world without a way to make online transactions? Pretty sure you could send a telefax to race office and offer to pay in cash or gold doubloons, the window to use cheques might have passed though.

In this modern world it seems I can do 99,9% of my online business with a Debit card. Or even better, a virtual card based on my debit card. Thus would like to hear from the Hubbers that navigate "around" credit cards .... Other than access to debt, credit cards is a relic of the past .... or so it seems to those that use their debit cards. Yes, I currently do a credit card .... just wondering about its "value add" in the current age. But hey, maybe I am missing something ..... would like to hear users feedback. PS - The bank staff are good at up-selling their products ..... certainly not getting to the bottom of this inside a bank (at least not the three I recently visited) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
