Cape Argus Cycle Tour 2010 in Noordhoek
In the early morning hours this coming Sunday, Noordhoek will be wide awake and buzzing with helicopters monitoring and filming the first of well over 35,000 cyclists of this year’s Cape Argus Cycle Tour 2010 as they zoom past idyllic Noordhoek Village and up towards Chapman’s Peak and the so-called “…most beautiful coastal road in the world”.
For the many cyclists from abroad it will certainly be an “African Experience” of a kind! Read on to see who’s here!
Cape Argus Cycle Tour 2010 in Noordhoek
The Cape Argus Cycle Tour 2010 is hosted in Cape Town – 30 km North from Noordhoek – South Africa; it is a 109 km cycle race following a circular route from Cape Town down the Cape Peninsula through spectacular scenery to look at but at times quite gruelling to accomplish from a cyclist’s point of view. The start of the race is in the centre of Cape Town, following the M3 South to Muizenberg, then Main Road along the False Bay coast to Simon’s Town and Smitswinkel Bay. The route then crosses the peninsula and heads north along the Atlantic coast through Scarborough, Kommetjie, Noordhoek, Chapman’s Peak, Hout Bay, Suikerbossie Hill, eventually Camps Bay and with its finale in Green Point.
The annual event is the first event outside Europe to be included in the International Cycling Union’s Golden Bike Series.
Lance Armstrong in Noordhoek
We have seen many well-known cyclists from all over the world and this year’s star is noone else than Lance Armstrong! This man from Texas has an incredible story based on his iron willpower: having survived cancer, he won the Tour de France in 7 consecutive years. What an inspiration!
What I find interesting is how Lance communicated via Social Networks on the Internet – in this case Twitter ! The word spread faster than any newspaper could get it out… and perhaps that caused a rapid reaction and solution to his ‘full passport’ problem at the Airport. I fished some info on this from the Internet for you here…
He has been seen around already and there is no doubt we see Lance Armstrong in Noordhoek very early on Sunday morning! Well… a flash of lightning he will be – no doubt!

Build your Flash Website
For the purpose of the March Ycademy online seminar, we will equip Seminar Participants with a professional Storyboard software. The tool allows you to plan your site. Working with a Storyboard will save time and provides a great way of communicating with customers.
Example Storyboard
This is a sample based on screen-shots to show the defined layouts by the Evolution Script.
The storyboard is not really populated, except that it indicates which xml script is concerned. More tonight at the call.
The storyboard can also be exported in form of a movie as the case may be:
Click HERE for a sample.
Join tonight’s call to see more from the Storyboard!

Living in Noordhoek South Africa
Living in Noordhoek South Africa is so special that it inspired me to finally realize a project I had on my mind for a long time, namely to create a visually rich and environment oriented website or rather a dynamic blog called “mynoordhoek.com”. It won’t be just any website . . . :)
Living in Noordhoek South Africa
When living in Noordhoek, South Africa, you come across many little creatures that express their Joy of simply Being and certainly never fail to comment on your presence in one or the other way – just as this inquisitive squirrel when I took pictures of Noordhoek Common . . . a typical, idyllic view of graceful horses grazing on rich pastures, surrounded by white ibis… with the dramatic backdrop of the mountains against a deep blue sky.
MyNoordhoek.com
MyNoordhoek.com is mine!
To start such a dedicated project, one of the first steps is to secure the right domain name – in this case: mynoordhoek.com
To be continued. . .

Create your 3D Logo
Ever wanted to create your own 3D logo? And get one of these Hollywood looks or glow like on Broadway?
Well, it’s possible!
A bit of color, a nice font, a bit of bevel, some light and a shadow and you are in the race. Of course you can choose some more fun colors and textures or even neon light, your imagination is the limit.
Once you have finished your basic design, add some animation to give it this touch of the rotating Big Mac on next corner’s Junk Food kiosk. An axe to rotate around, a .GIF format, a background to drop the shadow on, yeahhh you may even add some music and you are ready to rotate on top of the Empire State Building … or as the case may be on the Eiffel Tower.
As these images may stress my transparent image handler on this site, I have loaded the two images to a separate page HERE.
PS: If you are interested in learning how to create your logo in animated 3D format, just register for the March 2010 Ycademy Seminar and build the most smashing site you have ever owned!
