Checks phone for pictures ... Nah nothing 🤔

Hopefully it's a SHORT while mate!

Something I thought @Jewbacca could take on? https://www.cyclingweekly.com/news/879-miles-and-83-hours-on-a-folding-bike-london-cyclist-completes-lands-end-to-john-ogroats-on-a-brompton?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=socialflow

I'll certainly be doing the 60, have entered for the full ride but depending how I feel Friday I'll decide.

Just ambling about, hopefully can resolve this medical issue soonest 🤔

I guess the white cages look better now 🤪

Designed and printed this, it's a bracket to mount a dolly chair on the back of my 3y old granddaughter's new bike she got for her birthday on Monday. The one it came with doesn't allow the seatpost to go low enough for her to reach the pedals.

That white was irritating me as well as the unused front derailleur cable stops and the fact that the rear gear cable isn't a full outer. Stripped, drilled/filed the cable stops. It's at the painter now ....

What are these 'bars' y'all going on about? I'm no lightweight and have settled on 25/28 PSI F/R on MTB and 32/35 PSI F/R on gravel I have found that going too low on my gravel bike makes the bike wander around too much ... No idea how accurate my pump is and I certainly am not one of those that can feel a single PSI either way either

Like this?

Just saw this for those interested

I'm still of the opinion #AnyoneButGwin 🤪

Having one of those times where I just can't seem to get a break if you'll excuse the pun .... but hey "You could stand me up at the gates of Hell But I won't back down"

Breaks "a pause in work or during an activity or event. "I need a break from mental activity"" #EkSeMaarNet 😛

Will have to see how I feel middle next week then decide but I'd like to ... maybe just for fun I've done every single fast one MTB so would like to keep it up somehow

Best I spend some time on that track bike on the road a bit perhaps it'll come?

Alas it would appear the 'Pienaar clan' were of the 'my body is a temple not to be defaced' types 🤔

First ride after 24 days 13 hours 41 minutes and 56 seconds! Hopefully 'onwards and upwards' from here even though I detest that saying 🤪 Still trying to find my 'tribal tattoo' so I can have some 'ink' as the cool kids say.

I always put a bit of light grease on the end of the valve core before I put it in. Seems to help ...

I beg to differ but that's probably also just me... that Merida is starting to show its age me thinks 😜

Like with most things everyone has their own reasons or wants and available cash, jeez just live and let live I say ... if you want a 50 grand medal go get it, if you want to ride the trails in your 'hood go do it Ek skud maar net my kop 😤

Sadly lots of little bikes brown bread the last week and a bit .... 😞

Ai Fanie, sorry to see that. Hope you heal up quick and proper!

Makes me think back in the days when I was unaware that running was for prey only ... I struggled and stumbled from one kind of shoe to another and still struggled with injuries. I even went to that fellow that cut the telephone books up ... My older boet on the other hand just ran in whatever shoes were on special ... And he was a multi Comrades silver medalist and 15th at Long Tom marathon Unfortunately he had a bad car accident that eventually forced him to stop running else I'm sure he would have had a go at those homemade 'Huarache' running slops even!
