    No problemo. I am all for making informed choices and having a critical mindset, but not all sources of information are created equal.

    Evocycles will do them on pre order for you. ETA is Jan 2022 https://www.evocycles.co.nz/Product/500600/product?variation_id=500601&gclid=Cj0KCQjw_fiLBhDOARIsAF4khR0dj1SGsfdtgSUlJZyGRxNReDHTyKnJ3QJDLwA3oRLwOzHWa1Iqd4oaAskJEALw_wcB

    Regardless of the message in this video, the BUZZ.NZ is a right wing anti vaxx nuthouse filled with covid deniers and ill informed narratives. A simple browse through their website makes my feel ill and I want to rub my screen with disinfectant. I am all for critical thought and holding a government accountable for its failures. But using anything on that site is silly. Take a look at the "who we follow" section of the website and it is quite literally a list of the WORST places on the internet to get information.

    I miss that pup

    There is a popular classifieds site in NZ that does this and it works really well.

    if you guys are looking for an interesting (albeit very expensive) way to totally geek out with a Garmin compatible energy monitoring system, have a look at this... https://www.supersapiens.com/en-EN/

    Life is too short for bad coffee
  8. Wayne Potgieter
    I am a total coffee snob, so be prepared for an outlandish reply. Nespresso sucks. I cannot stand it. We have a Breville Oracle machine at home and have our beans delivered to the house on a subscription service, Now this has ruined ALL coffee for us when we travel, but thankfully suits really well in lockdowns. It has become such a problem, that when we last whent on holiday in easter, we took the machine with us.
  9. Wayne Potgieter
    Totally support it. From watching the entire world, 1 case can become thousands if people are slow to react. Personally, Id rather have a shorter sharper lockdown then a long drawn out one with people dying.

    I sold my Thule to a mate in RSA before leaving. Arrived here and went through two different racks and hated both. Managed to Convince HAyley to bring back my Thule rack in her container when she moved here and bought my rack back from my mate.

    It absolutely is a mess. Did you read the story about the bad advice that was given from INZ to some SAFFA dude in Dunedin that ended up costing him his job and income?

    I wonder if Costco will have a grocery division?
  13. Wayne Potgieter
    Yep, Ill organise one for you. Which hotel are you going to? Commodore?
  14. Wayne Potgieter
    Nothing. When you land, go to one of the many cellphone providers at the airport and simply buy one. There is no serious paperwork as such. Data is ridiculously cheap here compared to RSA. I recommend Spark as I was on Vodafone but struggled with patchy signal.

    I was blown away at these vehicles when watching the "Long Way Up" tv show with Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boorman. They rode electric Herley's supported with Rivians from southern tip of argentina to LA.

    Hi Matt. I appreciate the need to update and modernise. I can also appreciate that its impossible to please everyone. But from my personal perspective, lack of Tapatalk and the obvious intention to remove/eradicate the off topic sections from being part of the standard view are a serious oversight for me. For this reason, I find the site more trouble then its worth, to be honest, and have cancelled my Bike Hub Plus premium membership. Sort of no point supporting a site that clearly does not value the very areas that are important to me. I truly hope you can change your view on the Off Topic section. Where that to happen, I would gladly renew.
  19. Wayne Potgieter
    Why has the Off Topic section been removed as a default option on the new site?

    Any tips for a pinch callous under the big toe? Like this pic...no, these are not my toes (this person needs to cut their toe nails)

    What a great cause. Donation Made!

    @Jewbacca What a great story. Well done. It was fantastic to read and you have a talent for putting mind over matter as well as writing. Thank you for sharing.

    I recently switched from my Nike Zoom Fly 3's to the Saucony Endorphin and if this trail shoe is anywhere near as good as its road cousin, it will be very good. One day, when I am a PROPER runner, I will upgrade to MR P Maxed shoes. In New Zealand, those will be "exotic".

    Seems of the 8 runners still taking part, runners 4 through 7 (4 runners in total) are all at 151.4km at a checkpoint in Pilgrims Rest. 42 hours in and around halfway. Our guy is part of this group. I hope everyone continues on....

    Peter Purchase has Withdrawn and Ruan back in front. Leading with 25km+ buffer. Our guy just passed 138km! Thats insane....
