No just the touch Trubie. Looks like the mind is going, going, gone.

 

Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most. Come to think of it, how can I lose something I never had? :(

 

My mind used to wander, now it leaves me completely. I'm at that point in life now that when I stop to think, I forget to start again. :unsure:

 

What were we discussing again? Oh yes, the weather is..... zzzzzz.

 

oh ok, I was refering to the chirps that Kid got on sunday

not you - wont venture there - ever!! :)

'k, so like we have a long weekend coming up and I see no special rides have been planned. Or are they happening under cover to keep me away? :angry:

 

What say we organise an Alberton Hub ride for those of us ucky enough to be driving"Jan Tuisbly se karretjie" (Translates to those who are driving Johnny-stay-at-home's car.) :(

 

I need to go for a relatively long ride and I have missed out on so many bunch rides this year. I'm looking forward to riding a bike without a backpack on for a change. B)

 

Who has some ideas? Recon I might be abe to do a circus loop once or maybe twice. Will need Sunday to rest and recover so I can commute 5 days nexts week, insted of my current two.

Rest tomorrow and do a relaxing Campus 2 Campus ride with us on Sunday.

 

Er, tomorrow = Thursday in my calender unless I missed a coupl eof days again. Then Friday = Public holiday and even if I want to, I can't get into the office.

 

Then Saturday is like not going to be a work day either, and Sunday I need to recover for a full week of commuting again.

 

Haven't entered Campus and don't think I am nearly race fit.

 

 

Probably will join in, coming off a bout of flu so not going to push hard

 

So when and where do we meet MDW? Usual place on Friday AM, and go out for a nice slow circus loop?

@Slave, of course you race ready. No need to enter, just pitch and do the route.

 

The last 2 Sunday's I've gone long and neither time has the group done the Cheese Factory / Bosco Loop, they turn right and do a longer ride.

Make sure you are prepared to ride solo into the wind on the circus road towards the steps.

Normally plenty people going up the steps so you can just join them.

Believe it or not, I hardle missed one weekend riding out of Xumbugs last year. This year, I have only been there once and that was on 3rd Jan just before my crash.

 

Since then, I either been in recovery or too tired from commuting.

 

Let's meet at the usual time and take it from there. The bunches normally leave at about 7, and I think it's going to be Mona's slow moan train for me this weekend.

 

Oh JOY, how I look forward to that. :(

@Slave, I'll be doing the Nampak loop with the slow bunch on Friday & then MiniMe is supposed to do the same on Sunday.

 

Best you put a flag on your bike so I can recognize you :D :D

Campus is the race with Ertijiesberg in it? So where does it start? You going to come fetch me? Or maybe Trubie.

 

Dude, going up the steps, I doubt I can keep up with the stragglers. I'm going to be it for a change. Long time since I raced up a hill.

Yip it's that route.

Starts at the Varsity and finishers there to.

You can do a late entry if you want, I'm going to C/Lab on Friday if you want to come with.

 

You doing the 94.7 ???

Posted

Doesn't look like I'll be doing 94.7 this year. Definitely give Campus a miss as well.

 

As far as race ready goes, I am not going to be able to manage ertjiesberg unless Spas09 is there with a whole mobile ICU / crash cart / Cardiac team.

 

The only thing I can race right now is to the loo and I can get to the bedroom pretty fast for a nap. Lately though, I haven't been able to get to the room. I just nod off at the desk, in front of the TV, almost anywhere, anytime. :(

 

We'll talk some more tomorrow. Gotta run.

Posted

So I think I'll just amble down to xumbugs in Friday and have a run around the short loop with them. (Them being Moaning Mona' gang.)

 

I'll be the dude on the SLR and the Panda gear. I'll also be hanging at the back waiting for the courage to do this ride. ;)

 

I did another commute this AM and it was off my best time and my legs fee like lead. Still have to ride home this afternoon. :(

Posted

@Slave, cool I'll see you there tomorrow.

I'm the short dude on the carbon bike using Campag, easy to spot :D :D :D :D

 

So you are the one I need to get binocs to see from this great towering height? ;) You sure You'll be easy to spot? :P

 

I'm just seriously worried that I might overlook you and then be in a spot of bother. Perhaps I should meet you.... WTF did we used to meet again? It was more than 10 minutes ago so it's no longer admissible. :blink:

 

When did you get a tupperware bike. Last I saw you up close on a bike you had one of those wop thingie majiggies. (B...Bi... Bia or some junk.) :P
