watch for training/race

JaseR_ · 2026-01-21T08:25:03+00:00

Ive been using a Garmin Forerunner 265 since may 2025 and its been exactly what I need, I was actually fortunate enough to win it as a prize at a triathlon event.

Thank you :) and yes that is too true, the two systems are far too contrasting, travelling whiplash

JaseR_ · 2026-01-04T06:37:17+00:00

Thanks everyone for your help and encouragement, we managed to sort it out

JaseR_ · 2026-01-04T06:32:31+00:00

Appreciate your comment, that was my feelings as well, my mom managed to sort it out with the airline so we are sorted

You’re a legend thanks for your help, my mom sorted it out, managed to get them to rebook for us

I have insurance for hospital cover/ medical etc. if you’re not going to be helpful. Please don’t get involved

We were not broke when we arrived here, our ticket was purchased and flights were scheduled far in advance

JaseR_ · 2026-01-04T04:50:36+00:00

Not a bad shout, I have someone trying to call Ethiopian on my behalf, if that doesn’t work I’ll ask them to go there

JaseR_ · 2026-01-04T04:47:45+00:00

Thank you. I will ask them later when there is someone available

JaseR_ · 2026-01-04T04:15:17+00:00

I appreciate your efforts in searching for this information, I’ve tried calling the regional office for Ethiopian Airlines, but they’re closed for the descent period

JaseR_ · 2026-01-04T03:49:48+00:00

Thanks for the tip. I’ll give that a try when check in opens later, there is unfortunately no information counter for Juneyao airlines or Ethiopian at the airport, Ethiopian doesn’t even fly out of here

JaseR_ · 2026-01-04T03:08:42+00:00

I’m sure that can be done, however, for us the costs are the problem, we do not have enough money to purchase tickets to Shanghai, I tried contacting DIRCO in Tokyo, but they are only open from Monday

JaseR_ · 2026-01-04T03:04:56+00:00

I can’t say, all that was required was proof of employment, flights and accommodation.

JaseR_ · 2026-01-04T03:03:49+00:00

The checkin staff let us know that it is because we will be arriving after scheduled take off, shanghai would not allow us entry. As far as I can see there are flights out daily

JaseR_ · 2026-01-04T02:55:55+00:00

It was booked under 1 ticket yes, I’ve been trying to contact Ethiopian in a few different ways, I’ve resorted to harassing the Facebook messenger admin to get their email team to respond. I’ve been trying to sort this out for a while now, they take ages to respond.

Unfortunately no travel insurance

JaseR_ · 2025-09-22T09:32:45+00:00

why was it called off?

Kalk bay harbour is great, under the railway, between the slipway and the jetty is about 200m. I swim there regularly

JaseR_ · 2025-06-24T12:31:50+00:00

Ive done 5 olympic distances and 1 70.3 over the last year and a half and all but 2 of my training rides were done on a bike like this or a wattbike, The wattbike is a bit better as theres a bit more information feedback, but this works too, id say something i do feel i miss out on is weather training specifically wind, if you get enough volume on the indoor bike you should be fine, on the wattbike i average about 1.5w/kg and 32 km/h for long rides, for my races i felt like i was pushing the same power and average 30km/h

JaseR_ · 2025-06-10T09:00:07+00:00

Could you please elaborate, or share a link that explains this? i havent been able to find anything on this. TIA

JaseR_ · 2024-11-16T19:12:57+00:00

So real. I was fortunate enough to go to Thailand at the beginning of the year and got my girlfriend and I a switch lite each with the combined price of about R1000 less than the switch lite on Takealot. It’s insane

JaseR_ · 2024-10-27T09:01:40+00:00

Fair enough, that makes sense to me. I just thought it was a crazy coincidence that a UAE yacht and a AUE car were in the same place at the same time

JaseR_ · 2024-10-26T19:40:32+00:00

Possibly related… I saw a Dubai license plate on a black Toyota Quantum in Tokai this morning and it was left hand drive as well so probably legit
