You were either riding or hiding here in the south of Jobeg this morning ... I suspect a lot of the latter though ????

Some hectic winds around lately .... holding thumbs for this afternoon ????

I've learnt my lesson so don't complain about DSTV programming issues here anymore ????

No

When your grandson comes with to the track ... clown ????

Mon dieu, you mean what they should be doing normally ???? - whatever sarcasm font is supposed to be these days ????

Thankfully I don't subscribe to this general 'ALL of us cyclists look like twats, ACT like twats' ... I'm a bit dumbfounded why some even carry on riding? Luckily I'm old enough to not bother with what people think or say I just go about my riding in the safest possible way that I can ... yes I may here and there make a mistake and perhaps break a rule but I'm not a total twat

Easy tiger, I was merely commenting on my real life experience running the social media for a bike shop Thankfully we're out of that ????

Bit of a 'ragdoll' ride ... still smiling though ????

From personal experience keeping relevant and interesting social presence is time consuming for very little reward ... I'd still say the consumers want it but don't for a minute think it'll change their perception of the physical shop/workshop

Before

No he's not like you guys

Going to start assembling this evening and finish it tomorrow I hope... I'll definitely post pics!

The 'Tron' bike is ready!

Don't ... just don't

I've applied the decals, now just wait 'impatiently' for the clear coat to be done and dry

I'd never heard of that ... I've certainly never rotated wheels on a trainer ????

I hadn't till now ???? Would need to find some kind of stand though ....

Thanks man, the frame is done and flatted again ready for the logos ... a bit of a delay getting them ???? Hopefully today then clear coat latest tomorrow. Busy painting the front wheel, dérailleurs and crank black ...

A sneak preview of the colour ????

He's one of those 'tron' bike Zwifters so will be difficult to persuade him to try anything else I reckon, I use Rouvy for my very rare indoor rides

As an aside in a 'package deal' I'm getting my TT frame painted the same colour ????

Any suggestions of other things to do that'll make it a 'cool' dedicated indoor bike?

A mate of mine has asked me to 'customise' this cheapie as a dedicated indoor trainer bike for use on his Kicker with Zwift. Decided on a metallic blue colour with some metallic silver Zwift and Wahoo logos, won't bother to fit the brake calipers ... I'll just rattle can the crank, dérailleurs and front wheel gloss black including the brake surface.
