Yep, it's has been decided that if Applicunt 4 submit the pic of the 'Tall's "tats", he will be granted his life long dream of B.O. status and if the "tats" are private, he will receive the ultimate B.O., the Animal Farm.
Since BObbie can't ride fast... He let his bikes do the chewning... First up, the trust old horse, the Sempre with Campagnolo Chorus 11 speed and Campagnolo Shamal Dark Labels. And BObbie's new training partner, the 1885!!! BObbie's Alu 1885 is equipped with Campagnolo Anthena 11 speed and Campagnolo Eurus with puncture proof tubeless Hutchinson Fusions. Well, BObbie can puncture anything... Yes, BObbie figured it would be hard for Donkey, Lolly, TallieTag, BOatie, Chicken and Pa to pronounce Campagnolo. Let's help them, everybody together now, S-h-i-t-m-a-n-o and S-l-i-p-r-a-m. Tubs can pronounce it, but he has been seen slipping the ram on a Bianchi... Anyway, let's get back to business, nothing less than the fastest for BObbie. The new fast must be stiff so it can carry BObbie's weight. It must be light because BObbie has too much weight. It needs to be aero because BObbie is wide. It must be sexy because BObbie is bu...
With Sani2C just around the corner, three weeks to be exact, consisting of three days of agonizingly beautiful riding from Underberg to Durban. This epic ride starts on the 15th of May, averages 80km and climbs as much as 2200m a day and goes through the “HOME OF THE BLACK MAMBA”. All the more reason to prepare and prepare well. No one wants to get stuck out there with +3m albino mambas. Even if it's just to get value for money after all the big G you had to drop to get here. [Ed. note 1: (Because the BOditor always has something to say) Donkey? Mamba?] Final preparation starts with “The Mast Challenge”. This is a hill in the Tokai forest at Cape Town. The specs are 11.5km and 900m of climbing. Simple math should tell you that’s 8% average all the way with spikes over 20%. Some people run and some people cycle and a select few (not even the Donkey was brave enough) do both to claim the title “King of the Mountain”. [Ed. note 2: (stating) You walked!!!] To get...
(BOd note: those who writes for a living will understand the pressure of a deadline, your brains blanks out, your fingers types meaningless sentences and your grammar is basically gibberish. A nd the irritating editor constantly on the phone demanding your piece. Let's just say this editor went out of his way to get you, the 2785 faithful, loyal and rabid fans this piece from the Donkey. It was, let's just say, not pleasant...) We woke on Day Three a little later than the previous days as the distance and profile was little less demanding and all teams should have no problem finishing in time. Even The Massive were expected to come in by lunchtime… And after a slightly slower day 2 we had now dropped back to group B in 66th position over all. The Massive had also dropped back after Day Two slightly to, if I can quote Le Tour, le gruppetto. This still to be confirmed, but watching the highlights on the TV the other day I believe Heavy D was filmed in the queue weari...
