Bottelary Hills on the weekend https://www.instagram.com/p/BaicrIWg7jz

Managed an EPIC ride on my Levo today. Did 1.25 of a trail in the same time it would take me to ride three quarters on my pedal-assit-yo-damn-self bike. Those extra bits: ALL sgl track and the cherry on top was spotting a Rooikat. "You do you..."

What’s it really like to work with Valentino Rossi? https://www.motorsport.com/motogp/news/whats-it-really-like-to-work-with-valentino-rossi-967102/ "What is it that makes Valentino different to the rest? If you mean why is he so good, I suspect it’s like buying a computer; some are just faster than others, some have bigger CPUs and more memory. He is the equivalent to the fastest computer that you can buy that keeps regenerating! If you mean something that you can see or understand it’s this: his love for the sport. I mean everything about it, not just riding. He enjoys seeing the young riders win, he enjoys helping them. He has finished races where he has not won, but loved the race so much he can’t hide it."

Lorenzo not ready to sacrifice wins for Dovizioso https://www.motorsport.com/motogp/news/lorenzo-not-ready-to-sacrifice-wins-for-dovizioso-966504/ Yes, cause he's been winning so many races this year... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oYsXc3hqgEE

Easy One is a scooter with pedal assist, also known as a moped. The other is a mountain bike with pedal assist also known as an e-bike. The one can be cycled on a mountain (hence mountain bike) the other can't. Or rather The one can be ridden on a mountain, the other can be ridden on a mountain if you're grade 11 and got drunk at Chantelle's party and you and your mate Dave decide to head out to the viewpoint without shoes or shirts on to talk about Sonja who said she's not coming then showed up with another dude. Seriously though. A moped is a scooter with pedal assist to help on long, steep climbs or when you try to get away from standstill. Usually found on woefully underpowered little bikes in developing countries. Then there is the obvious bits of why Exhibit A can not considered a mountain bike.

Yip. Just be glad I didn't post the selfie version of that!

Cruising around Struisbaai

@Iwan_Kemp Bikes, bikes and more bikes with the odd drumming pic or two.

The APP lets you set either - km's you're planning to ride - hours you're planning to ride - import a ride's coordinates and will then throttle the available power from there to ensure you have juice until the very last km. APP also allows you to - set what percentage battery life you would like to have left at the end in case you get lost or decided to stay out longer or whatever. - set the initial kick-in power to overcome the initial surge when the motor kicks in - set how much assistance each power level gives Quite nifty.

Add your thoughts HERE. Should have mine before the end of the week...

Not today, but at least this week cruising around Struisbaai...

He did not mess up...

Must be a back-killer riding that photo frame around with you!

Loving the Jeffsy, but super keen to try wider rims on it. The OE wheels on our long-termer is a bit noodly

And then there's this one...

http://f1.wikia.com/wiki/Penalty_points

Joked to Dutch TV that he is looking forward to some simulator time as the engine in that can't break!

For starters that puts him on 9. If he gets 3 more he will get an automatic 1 race ban. First points to drop from his total will be the weekend of the Silverstone P which means he has to go 2 races without any penalties or he will receive a ban. It was introduced to keep drivers in check over a longer period and well, because Maldonado and early Grosjean.

Red Bull drops behind McLaren on the amount of race laps completed in 2017! https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/red-bull-mileage-mclaren-f1-2017-924077/

Also 3 penalty points on his superlicence.

Hehe,yes. I quite like this one...

Yeah, utterly stupid by Vettel. He would have won that race with Hamilton's headrest drama. How stupid and irresponsible. FIA said Hamilton did not brake test and after looking at it again it does not look like Ham reduced speed - and I'm not a fan of the man. Going to be a great year if they can all equal the development race and Red Bull's gains are real.
