I certainly won’t be missing an opportunity to meet the great man and hopefully raise our concerns and get his views on various cycling topics often raised here on 2oceansvibe. You know, from cycling through red traffic lights, to balls exposed in front of children and the wearing of cycling helmets whilst dinging. But, you […]
They’re calling it “the party of a lifetime” and it is a known fact that you will die if you miss it. That is why I am giving you this warning so you can’t blame me when that happens. It’s on March 19th and there will be NO tickets sold at the door on the […]
Finally – the day is upon us!

The Montrose Foundation does not require much introduction, given its affiliation to Montrose Place, the Cape Town rehabilitation facility at which Tiger Woods was rumoured to be receiving treatment.

You’ve heard the rumours and now you can take it as gospel – SA’s first REAL edgy reality show launched last week. MAN TV, the 13-episode reality show following four single men around Cape Town as they try to pick up chicks and explain what goes on in their heads is sure to impress. I’ve […]
Everyone is raving about these “Authentic Sessions” at Cafe Caprice, featuring local musicians and DJ’s in the DJ box, spinning tunes that they feel have been an influence on their music and their vibe in general. 340ml are playing tonight – apparently it’s gonna be “off the chain.” Zebra & Giraffe on Friday (don’t tell […]

I didn’t think it would work, when I was first told about @yourlunchrun, the new Twitter account guy whose Twitter page tells us, “Don’t have time for a run? I’ll do it for your lazy Ass. Just enjoy the ‘time out’ and even send requests to make it YourRun – GO!” Apparently he heads off […]
With the signature 2oceansvibe slogan telling us, “Work is a sideline, Live the holiday,” there were two very obvious things that needed to be addessed. First was the launch of 2oceansvibe Jobs – a website which showcases all temporary, freelance and part-time jobs available in Cape Town and beyond. No permanent 9-5 jobs will be […]
I don’t need to remind you about South Africa’s premiere social event happening on Saturday – the annual L’Ormarins Queen’s Plate Horse Race at Kenilworth Race Course in Cape Town.

I received the following invite from Puma, essentially giving me carte blanche to do whatever I want in their V&A Waterfront store from 19h00 to 21h00 tomorrow (Tuesday) night. They’re giving me a 45% discount, which I am able to extend to you. And that’s not for sale items – that’s includes NEW STOCK! Not […]

My skill-set is widely discussed and it’s a given that long-distance running comes as easy to me as horse whispering. It was for that exact reason that I accepted Runner’s World Magazine’s invitation to do the Two Oceans Marathon. They were clearly aware of the fact that I do the same course most weeks – […]
I know what you’re thinking. How can it get to this level? It’s quite silly, really – it’s like we’re playing this game on “easy” mode.. Behold, the ULTIMATE Christmas gift.. Due to the overwhelming amount of awesome videos on 2oceansvibe, you can’t be expected to watch it all – and let’s face it, not […]
A combination of emails I have received, as well as the responses (comments) to the brief 2oceansvibe review of The Killers concert, suggests an overwhelming negativity to the way in which Big Concerts organised the event. OR THIS ONE They (Big Concerts) obviously received the same backlash, as they felt compelled to release the following […]

I must admit I’ve been dying to do Fantastic Racing for a while now and when Cape Town Tourism invited me to a day at Killarney (same place I did the Audi Advanced Driving Course the other day) racing around in single seater racing cars, well, I couldn’t resist! This is what I found upon […]
