Through the Warthogs, i have been invited to ride with Defending Social Team Winners of 2008: Team Sling Wei! To say that I’m stoked is an understatement. I was planning on doing this event, Solo, as I did this year – hitting the 3 hour ride and beating my 4 lap result by perhaps one [...]

We all download files. Most of them are either .zip or .rar file extensions. Ubuntu needs a little tweaking before you can use .rar files. If you’re reading this, you’re more than likely thinking – what the hell, “Ubuntu” should have thought of including a .rar archive tool!!? Surely? Well, they can’t – it’s proprietary. [...]

I’ve been running this through my head over the past couple months – what to do with riply.co.za.. I was at one stage, keen to shelve it. Permanently. For a couple months it lay here, collecting dust doing very little other than have the occasional Google Bot wonder in and out. 2009: Ubuntu. I have [...]

Yesterday sported some of the best weather we’ve had all year round! After waking up very late morning, early afternoon, Tracy and I decided to take a train to Kalk Bay. If I had to use one word to describe the Lakeside Strip, it would be ‘busy’! With places like the Brass Bell and Kaklies [...]

It’s no secret that I’m a lot more active now-a-days, channeling the stress of life through my body, into thr tar of the road, the dirt on the mountains and the water in the gym – it does however, seem to come with a drawback. Athlete’s Foot. While snipping my toe nails the other day, [...]

I’ve been doing this for almost two years now – blogging. Some months more regular than others. A lot more regular. In the dry spells, I find myself motivated to write by others who have been or are starting to spill their hearts on the www. Bloggers – love them. Myself, being a South African [...]

I still remember when I was 16. I don’t remember my 16th Birthday (okay – I do.. there was a lot of booze and I was in the mountains. Ah good old Cederberg!) but I do remember feeling on top of the world. Peppermint Liqueur – bad. Similarly, I remember being in full control when [...]

It pains me to do it.. well, not really. I don’t really watch TV at all. It comes with a cool stand that has optional extras including DVD rack, CD rack & shelves. Here’s a pic of the beast. Make me an offer.

Yesterday morning started out fresh. Fresh and early. Colin and myself had decided the afternoon before to go for a prework pedal to De Boyes Drive and back through Polsmore to get the day going. With 10km left to the ride along a hilly road, he suggested a little sprint. Lovely As it was hilly, [...]
