He thought she was a WADA plant?

What is it with retired trackies?! Pate gets done for assault,
Neiwand for unsolicited drug tests, Shabby gets done for
intentionally castigating triathletes riding without proper lights,
what's next?!

ROFLMAO

I'll have you know that I'm more of a duathlete these days... (it's
winter, who swims in winter?)

I saw a picture of him a year or two ago - apparently he's a wharfie
now. And he certainly didn't look like he was still cycling....

He rode the Austral in 2004 (or was it 2003, the season before last
anyway, not sure if the Austral is before or after the new year?).

PS here's a tip. Splashing about doesn't help you get through waves. You
gotta go UNDER 'em.

Or through them, but that takes power 🙂

You weren't talking 13 ft surf, were you? Even the IRB's end up going
under them (though not intentionally).

heh, yes, punching, it's called. I drove IRBs' for years for Vic and
WA state centers at the carnivals 🙂

And yes, it takes power (and a decent run up) to get through a
big wave!

And here's a tip for new players: Don't attempt to use a 41 kg, teenage
girl to weigh down the nose... she ain't big enough! Hehehe I fondly
remember those days of flying through the air... the nice slapping noise
as I hit the water ungracefully...

In big seas I was usually crew - at 110kg in those days we could get
through most nasty stuff. Drove the things for 10 years, must have
clocked up a 1000 hours or so in them ... sometimes I miss it 🙂

41kg? And someone even let you *in* a boat as anything
but a patient?

:P Shuddup. Once my club used me as a demo in a rescue, left me a long
way out in the water, on my own, in April for about 45 minutes, so
spectators would forget about me and focus on the chopper, and then
think I was a real patient. The guys then wondered why I was hypothermic
when they brought me in. Crazy times.

Honestly, I couldn't help being a runt. Daily supplementation from the
McDonald's right near my high school STILL didn't help. It wasn't until
I started training that I put on, and kept on, some weight.

Even more fun when the Coast Guard (VMR now) has to come to the aid of
the IRB crew that are gently drifting out to sea following a 'surf' or
dunk🙂.

IRB's are toy's I tell ya. Must be at least 6 metres long, have two
hulls and at least 450hp. Preferably a light bar and siren too.
Although the sea rescue have some nice mono hull bar boats down south
too.

Back to the 12 footer I s'pose.

Cyclist bailed on stalking charges
smh.com.au1116700638186.htmlOpen ↗
Olympic cycling medallist Gary Neiwand has been released on bail after being charged with stalking his ex-wife. Neiwand, 38, of the Melbourne suburb of Essendon appeared in the Melbourne Magistrates' Court to face 12 charges including burglary, theft, breaching an intervention order and stalking his former wife Catherine.

The court was told Neiwand verbally abused and threatened his ex-wife on a number of occasions between March and April this year. On one occasion, Neiwand allegedly urinated in her glass of champagne without her knowledge and watched her drink it, the court was told. Magistrate Robert Tuppen released Neiwand, who was taken into custody on Sunday, on bail with a $5,000 surety and ordered him to reappear in the same court on June 2.

Neiwand won the silver medal in the men's keirin event at the Sydney Olympics in 2000 and the silver in the 1000m sprint in the Barcelona Olympics in 1992.

dang! silly track sprinters!!!

I took my eldest daughter to Niewand's last Austral race win at the old Northcote drome. We had a great spot about 50m from the finish and i had spent the night either buying hotdogs or explaining (the little of) what i knew was happening out there. Kept telling Matilda to keep an eye out for Gazza and everytime he came by she was sitting on my shoulders shouting out at him. The sight of him just riding around the others on that last bend like they were trackstanding was truely mindblowing. Hope she doesnt see what a [censored] he is off the bike 🙄

I've been on the no swimming in winter program for about 5 years now, usually don't swim between april and november!

I like to think of myself as a cyclist and a runner, occasionally I do some other races!

Try getting that around a bunch of swimmers 150m from shore, and
picking up patients inside the break!

I urge you to do the Warwick Pentath Run next year. Best organised and
most fun event I've ever participated in! You could ride your bike to
the race.

The most I've doubled in a day is 29km running 8km am and 21.1k pm. Does sound like a good race series for me though as I seem to recover well.

The 1600km cycling warmup and 1600km cool down might take the edge off my legs!

To protect the not so innocent I will only say that they were in a
Central Qld location.

Do bars count?

The heeling of a cat onto the outside sponson just makes it more
interesting (mono's are much better for bar work)

Actually that should be an extreme sport. Drop over the first crest and
reef both motors into reverse to slow, aim off, grab, throw one motor
into full reverse the other to full forward to get the nose around then
full both into the 2nd crest, repeat turn in front of third and hammer
back over the waves (which should've broken by now) to the pontoon.

Guaranteed to get the adrenaline going and put a smile on your face.
Pity we don't have any bars up here (but then I'm glad I don't have to
take a small boat into them)

I rode to uni today with no pain and was pretty happy with that effort.
Was that double a race, or training? Qld has some decent ultra races
coming up. Also the weather is good!

I'm thinking of doing a 50k trail run, just for the hell of it.
