As an aside ... I know quite a few bike shop owners that hardly ride regularly anymore. And yes I also know 1 or 2 that still do Just an observation

It as someone told me long time ago, if you want make a million from a bike shop start with 2 million ...

When your riding partners send you that "we're on our way" WhatsApp... hang out with the shift change security guards and take a pic!

Don't, rather go sell encyclopedias from your car boot 🙄

Te lui om hom om te draai 🤪

Bit of a roadblock and then a quick underpass ... the temperatures still pleasant enough on the Highveld

DM me and I'll print you one

My Tarmac Disc is one of those 'SCS' frames, stands for 'Short Chain Stay' if I recall ... Mine was one of the very first disc road models. I just run normal QR MTB hubs on mine despite what they say ... A bit tricky though because the chain can occasionally come off if you are in the big chainring and 1st on the cassette.

Straight to the gravel for this build! Got a WhatsApp that has shocked my system into getting ready for one of my favourite times of the year in the south 😎👍

Thanks man, no more plus ones mate 😳 I just replaced the Giant's frame with this one.

My usual 29" frame, 26" fork setup ... @Pikey the style guru suggests black cages rather than white 😎 Yes @Jewbacca despite your hysterical tirade looks DO matter 🤪 Have no idea what frame that is/was as it came like that ... to avoid hub wrath would hate to put something on and find it's fake so I'll leave it 'vanilla' just like that 😶 Haven't finished the cables yet, always tough to make external cables look neat ... just taped it up, this way the drive side looks super neat at least. Slept on it and decided to go with this routing (for now)

Went to collect some meds at Dischem this morning, seriously long queue... the pharmacist said despite what I thought it was more flu cases than Covid ... now whether all those 'flu' cases had been tested she didn't know ...

Bloody Philistine 🤪

And this lasted even less ... the previous owner either had a good sense of humor or was that fast?

I'm with you on that, looks like an oversize 80's BMX bike

His wife said no, sorry 🤪

Autumn on the Highveld ... not unpleasant 😀

Anyone perhaps have a set of 27.5 gravel or slick tires lying around? Need to test a 26" frame with 27.5 gravel wheels 😎 TIA

Went to mark the 'Blue Shed' for @Pikey ... and it's even on his 'good side' where he can see 🙄

A lekker 'surf and turf' ride yesterday, these ladies just hanging around converting grass to milk 😎 There is something about how blue the sky is on the Highveld

No ... I ride a 'fair' bit and hardly take anything but before I say anything else, the last time i commented about how much and what people take on training rides I got a right bollocking so I leave them be now 😜

It's the little dirt access road behind the 1Stop on the right hand side of the highway going out towards Vereeniging, hope that makes sense .

Testing the latest #Orangutang build this morning ...a bit of everything. Winter is upon us here on the Highveld folks 😳 And the mud just lingers as well 😞

"I'm not a vegan" 🤣🤣

A bit of fiddling still but it's done ....
