TriGuru76 Posted January 5, 2011 Posted January 5, 2011 For those going out to buy new shorts, check out this site. It Bernard from Orca's page for stock clearence kit. You could save R100's if ordered here. http://www.fluidlines.co.za/index.php?option=com_virtuemart&page=shop.browse&category_id=48&Itemid=55 He is based in CPT so make sure you have enough time for postage.

And no, I am not wearing my red speedo ala baywatch Jy sal nie !!!!??!?!?!?!??!? Edited January 5, 2011 by CharlV
Face Plant Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 On the swimming subject, does anyone know of a dam close to PTA where we one can train. Swimming in the pool is just not the same and I really need the training!Grondpad, what about roodeplaat dam? thats in pretoria and is clean! the energade and sasolcross always have a race there
rouxtjie Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 Jy sal nie !!!!??!?!?!?!??!? If this oke can do it, so can I.....but in red Seriously what was he thinking
CharlV Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 If this oke can do it, so can I.....but in red Seriously what was he thinking Geez!!!!! Rouxtjie are you part of the weight loss group we started yesterday? ,because if you are man , I dont think you going to be that hot in red. :lol: Die Gemaskerde Sopbeen
T-girl Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 If this oke can do it, so can I.....but in red Seriously what was he thinking Maybe he wanted to get rid of the cycle-tan?
CharlV Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 Maybe he wanted to get rid of the cycle-tan? There is just so much wrong with this picture ! what scares me more is his face was removed ,maybe his a local Adonis!
rouxtjie Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 There is just so much wrong with this picture ! what scares me more is his face was removed ,maybe his a local Adonis!hehehhe no it was me, I am scared someone knows him on this forum or even worse...he is on this forum and well that would just be embarrassing for him. If you go to the Xterra site and browse last years pics, you will come across him....he even has a blue steel look in his face I am going with the theory that he was hoping the ladies would buy him beers after the race.
Weight Weenie Posted January 6, 2011 Posted January 6, 2011 Pity I only see the Orca specials now - ordered this amongst other bits, hoping I don't get hit with moerse duties and that it gets here in time Doing the light - thinking about 45min run, 45min bike and 15min swim, so 1h45 seems doable with transitions ? 1h30 if Eat some spanish beef and wear a PB band Picked up some locklaces for my shoes so a quicker transition there. Regarding bike spares - whats the options ? Dont use a pack so saddlebag ? Bottle with spares ? DOnt wana waste time stuffing things in my pockets. Hows the waterpoints on course ? - dont wana overdo the nutrition I carry. I also have a racenumber belt and ankle chip holder, how does their timing work ? Thanks,WW.
Garfield2010 Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Hi guys How technical is the 20km MTB this coming weekend. I have entered for the IM 70.3 and do not want to fall and break something.....
Face Plant Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Garfield xterra is always damn tough!! be assured that it will be technical and the run will be very tough too
Garfield2010 Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 The run is not my problem. I am a good road cyclist and a recreational MTB'er... So you would then rather suggest that I skip this one..... How technical is technical? Is the swim wetsuit legal?
Face Plant Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Garfield ironman 70.3 is the 23 Jan this race is the 29th so you dont have to worry about having a laydown its difficult to say how technical a route is becasue it depends on what you see as technical! what i think is technical might be a walk in the park for you but im sure you wont need a downhill bike to finish the route
