Heard my sister playing the theme song from Gladiatior earlier, and reminded me of the clip Ruth made after Totalsports Challenge earlier this year. Now is probabaly as fine a time as any to watch it again…

Have a look at this innovate-or-die.com site of Specialized’s, and watch this clip of the winning pedal powered innovation. I have seen water being carried for kilometers at end, in buckets balanced on an elderly ladies heads. How this would change the lives of millions…
The current icon and pin up girl of South African multisport Jeannie Bomfordset off to New Zealand today to represent South Africa at the World Multisport Champs - the Speights Coast to Coast. Despite rolling the Landy two weeks back, she’s in fine form I’m confident she’ll go a lot better than I did last year [...]
Not often we get to play on the glamorous side with rich and famous of Cape Town, but a few of us pulled in to Vida e Cafe for a pre-ride coffee in Camps Bay last Thursday. That with the excuse of ‘admin in CA’ and a swim in the sea… Neither of which happened. But before I write about the ride, [...]

This is a short glimpse into the time trial from last weekend, with staggered starts on handicapped time estimations. The morning’s weather was angered and from midway as seen on the clip visibility was down to 20m. Unfortunately the battery died as the guys started finishing, but most of the character of the event was [...]
A small video clip showing some of my racing at the past weekends Midmar Multisport Festival in Natal.
The incriminating evidence…
For those not in the know, the blue beaut shoes were my Puma’s, and its me with the yellow branded life jacket. Enjoy. I feel its an awesome clip and gives a fantastic summary and feel of the race.
This is a small collection of photo’s from the past weekend’s Totalsports Challenge in Sun City, in a video format. Enjoy.
This is a small collection of clips taken by Ruth during the race, and is potentially the start of being able to show you the energy, sound, emotion and the all round best reflection of the races I’ll be doing. We are still battling with the editing front, but will get there and keep you [...]
Not often I get to stand on the banks and watch a race unfold like this past weekend in Cradock at the 2007 Hansa Powerade Fish River Canoe Marathon. I dare I say I was made for it, but then the Fish is arguably one of the most thrilling spectator events I can think of. Its posisble [...]
A colourful weekend all round with some out of the ordinary moments. Went on a long ride from Milnerton, to the top of Chapman’s Peak with stunning view of the most sought after coastal strip in the Cape, went to watch Zaren’s younger brother race his first car race at Kilarney, and on Sunday, ran [...]
Spent time this weekend at the Breede River Canoe Marathon supporting Ruth’s two brothers, Doug and Steve, as well as some other mates racing. Enjoyed the small thrills of racing from vantage point to point following the action, but would far rather have been on the water myself.

Enjoy this clip of Conrad and Xterra. Such a great guy, such a gifted athlete, and such an influence in my journey. Still dependand on stacks of hand me downs from him.
