The bike course here in Extremadura is a bit unusual, but its not easy and has some fun sections. (A large part of the bike is between the water and the green/blue pole)

Red Caveman. by Nils Nilsen
This was a really fun race. During pre riding the course seemed easy and boring, but once you’re flying at race pace, things happen a lot quicker and the surface gets really loose and gravelly as the riders churn up the packed desert.
Not too sure what happened in the swim. I [...]
Caveman at Urban Rage 2010
After fighting the 9hr time change and jet lag that comes with it, I think I’m ready for XTERRA Las Vegas, the USA Season opener. The form is good, I had great legs and won the Vigne a Vigne MTB race in South Africa on sunday, (despite a puncture and a [...]
My friends call my dad “Tarzan.” Not sure why.
As you may know that he has been fighting colon cancer of the 2nd time over this past year. His plight had been an inspiration for me to win XTERRA Worlds in October- something which I knew would make him very proud. (”Stoltz” means “proud” [...]
Conrad Stoltz and Liezel Wium got engaged over the weekend.
I love the old Pirelli ad with ace sprinter Carl Lewis. It was footage of Carl running on water and then up the Statue of Liberty, before jumping from building to building. In the end he says: - in bad French- “Sans traction, la puissance n’est rien.” [Without traction, power is nothing]
The above pic, Sea [...]
The Caveman has been lucky enough to be invited as 1 of 16 celebrity drivers at South Africa’s Top Gear festival.
On my way to Kayalami race track right now for a day’s fun, hopefully meeting Clarkson and some serious driving on the racetrack. Packed some clean undies…
Conrad Stoltz. Caveman. Alien.
Will be back!
Big stuff brewing on all fronts.
Great blogging fodder.

My pool is growing weeds.
The main reason is: I’m gathering strength and money to make it actually hold water.
The secondary reason is: Swimming is over rated.
Today:
Happier days: Kudu bull watching the pool being filled from a nearby water furrow. No electricity,- so no pumps, filters etc…
Pool building makes you fitter than swimming.
Small mountain of Clif Shots in Africa. A sight for sore eyes indeed.
Dear North Americans: Edible Gold, also known as”Clif Bars” do not exist everywhere on this earth. Appreciate it, dammit!
When I come to South Africa for training, I take 2 pieces of carry on: 1 a “small laptop bag or personal item” and the [...]
My blogging mentor, Nikola Tosic (he probably wont like the definition) posted this interview with my coach, Ian Rodger on EliteCiao.com
The interview made me laugh out loud. (LOL, right?) OMG, it totally gives you a glimpse into Ian’s quirky character.
He stayed at my house in Stellenbosch this week, and this is where he made himself [...]

Warming up for SA TT Champs while coach Ian Rodger deftly wields the microphone and spray bottle. I will have to wait for the TV show to hear what he said- Jack Parow was pamping in the iPod.

I know ALL about time trailing- as long as its sandwiched between swimming and running. Here is a pic from ITU World Cup 1996? in Bermuda, wearing my favourite outfit and sporting my first free bike. A Sunn, I had to give back to Montpellier Triathlon club in France at the end of the season. [...]

I’m a little behind with the blogging, so I’m trying to quickly squeeze a few topics into one blog.
The Good:
Long, easy mountain bike rides on the Highveld. Drinking water straight from the spring. (Fountain)
