Met die jaar wat vinnig einde se kant toe staan, het Riaan besluit om sy aanhangers op ’n spesiale manier te bederf: met die uitreiking van sy nuutste enkelsnit, “Vitamiene See”. Foto : Facebook Riaan Benadé Inspirasie uit Liefde: 'Vitamiene See' en Melissa se Aanmoediging Hierdie vrolike liedjie, wat deur Riaan self geskryf is, is geïnspireer deur sy vrou, Melissa, wat hom aangemoedig het om ’n liedjie te skryf oor die vakansiegevoel by die see. “Dis ’n ligte liedjie wat hopelik niks anders doen as om jou gelukkig te maak nie,” sê Riaan. Mauritius Reis: Die Energie agter 'Vitamiene See' Die liedjie is geskryf met die vakansie-energie van hul onlangse Mauritius-reis in gedagte, waar dit al klaar as die klankbaan vir hul wegbreek gedien het. Riaan is bekend vir sy vermoë om onverwags kreatief te wees, en hierdie projek is geen uitsondering nie. “Om binne drie weke ’n liedjie te skryf, te vervaardig en vry te stel, is soos om ’n Sondag-na-kerk maaltyd in 15 minute aanmekaar te slaan,” skerts hy. Spanwerk en Produksie: Ricus Nel Se Rol in 'Vitamiene See' Die produksie van “Vitamiene See” was ’n spanpoging, met Ricus Nel as vervaardiger. Riaan prys Ricus vir sy toewyding te midde van ’n besige jaar. Dié liedjie bring ’n nostalgiese, maar vars klank wat ideaal is vir enige vakansiegees, en Riaan hoop dat dit luisteraars inspireer om te ontspan en hulself te geniet – of hulle nou by die see of elders is. Dankbaarheid vir 'Vitamiene See' Se Sukses: Melissa en die Span Die musiekvideo is op Mauritius geskiet, met selfone as enigste toerusting. Riaan en Melissa het self die video verfilm en geredigeer, wat dit een van sy mees persoonlike en koste-effektiewe projekte tot dusver maak. Met nuwe projekte reeds in die pyplyn, beloof Riaan dat sy kreatiewe reis net gaan aanhou verras. Hy sluit af deur sy dankbaarheid te deel vir almal wat deel was van hierdie vinnige en opwindende reis: Arnold Coleske, Paulo Azevedo, Ricus Nel, en sy grootste ondersteuner, sy vrou Melissa.

Op Sondag, 8 Desember, is daar op talle Potchefstroom sosiale media groepe met inwoners gedeel dat nóg ‘n eikeboom se lang lewe tot ‘n einde gekom het.  Foto (Potch Gazette): Dit is 'n hartseer gesig As dié boom kom praat Soos jy die ‘toneel’ benader, kan jy nie anders as om ‘n knop in jou keel te kry nie. Die groot eikeboom wat vir jare op die hoek van Steve Biko en Borcherd Straat gestaan het en onder wie ontelbare studente en inwoners geloop het, het omgeval en die munisipaliteit moes inspring en help met die opsaag daarvan. Hierdie boom het talle winkels en restaurante sien kom en gaan; op dié stadium is Texas op die hoek, maar voorheen was die bekende Café Fiori daar. Ongelukkig is dit nie die eerste eikeboom in die dorp wat omval nie.  Foto (Potch Gazette): Daar lê nog takke takke wat opgetel moet word Verskeie faktore Op die oog af het die boom nie siek of vrot gelyk nie en die jaarringe was nog duidelik sigbaar. Een inwoner het kommentaar gelewer op die plasing van die Potchefstroom First Responders groep en het dit laat klink asof dié gebeur het as gevolg van die Parke Departement van die JB Marks Munisipaliteit wat nie die nodige sorg aan die bome in die dorp gee nie; die bome word nie gesnoei nie en die nodige medikasie word nie aan die siek bome gegee nie.  Johan Naudé van Cachet Park CID het genoem dat hy "glo dis 'n kombinasie van albei (ouderdom en siekte). Die winde speel ook 'n faktor, selfs met gesonde bome." Foto (Potch Gazette): Dit lyk of die boom geskeur het Eikebome en Potchefstroom is byna sinoniem en daar is privaat instansies, individue en die Potchefstroom Eikeboomlaning ‘vereniging’ wat uit hulle pad gaan om dié bome te beskerm. Hetsy dit as gevolg van ouderdom, siekte of sterk wind was, is dit steeds 'n groot verlies vir talle inwoners.

The 41st Great Brick Run is back and set to hit Potchefstroom on Saturday, 18 January 2025. Hosted by Berts Bricks Athletics Club, this iconic event promises to bring together running enthusiasts of all fitness levels for a day of fun, sweat, and, well, bricks. Venue and Start Times The action kicks off at the Snowflake Building, 2 Kock Street, with registration open from 05:00. Depending on your distance of choice, here’s when you’ll be hitting the road: • 21.1km starts at 06:15. • 10km kicks off at 06:20. • The 5km Fun Run also begins at 06:20. Whether you’re chasing a personal best or just want to enjoy the route, there’s a run for everyone. Entry Fees and Licences Entry fees are straightforward: • 21.1km: R170 • 10km: R120 • 5km Fun Run: R40 Latecomers can still grab entries on the day (with a slight price increase), and temporary licences for the 21.1km and 10km races are available for R70. Remember, these races follow the ACNW and ASA rules, so a valid licence is a must. Pick Up Your Race Pack Got your entry sorted? You can collect your race number and timing chip on 17 January 2025, between 16:00 and 19:00, at Snowflake. Both cash and card payments will be accepted on the day for any last-minute entries. A quick heads-up: Your race number includes a timing chip, so don’t fold or fiddle with it. Also, make sure it’s displayed clearly on the front of your vest. Bricks and Beer The Great Brick Run wouldn’t be complete without its quirks. The first 100 athletes to complete the 21.1km while carrying a brick (yes, an actual brick!) will snag themselves a six-pack of beer. But remember, it’s one brick per runner—don’t get carried away with the masonry. Prize Money for the Pros While the event is all about community spirit, there’s some serious competition at the front of the pack. Prize money will be awarded to the top three male and female finishers in the 21.1km and 10km races. So, if you’re feeling fast, now’s the time to show it. Online Entries and Contact Details Online entries close on Thursday, 16 January 2025, at 15:00.

Lace up your tekkies, grab a brick (if you’re up for it), and head to Snowflake for a morning of fitness, community, and good times.
